If you dread presentations, or would just like to be a bit more confident when speaking, then this episode is for you! Linda Ugelow, author of Delight in the Limelight, is talking about why so many of us struggle with public speaking and what we can all do to improve. If you listen carefully, you’ll also find out what happened when I was live on stage in a wetsuit too 😊 

You can find out all about Linda here or follow her on TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, or YouTube.
You can also buy her book, Delight in the Limelight or find it on Audible. 

You can get her Speaker Preparation Checklist to feel grounded, focused, and energized when you speak.  

If you want a giggle, you can also watch my FameLab disaster video and my response
