“Speaking on stage did not come naturally to me. I would hate knowing that I had to put myself out there in front of people. College presentations, family gatherings, business presentations – regardless of what the situation was, I would dread it.
I knew I would have to fix this somewhere. Upskilling communication skills and my ability to speak would be beneficial to me no matter what career or path I end up on.
I began learning public speaking by reading a bunch of books, online courses, offline classes, Toastmaster meetings and TONS of embarrassing moments.
And things have changed. Have I transformed myself into this AMAZING public speaker? Absolutely not.
But I have come to the conclusion that communication and public speaking skills, just like most other skills, are learnable. My hope is that with the information we provide to you at Frantically Speaking you too feel the same way.”
