158 - Tips to Ground Yourself Before a Speaking Gig

“What are your grounding hacks before a speaking gig?” is the question I’m answering in this week’s episode of Speaking with Confidence.

Grounding isn’t always about nerves, sometimes it’s about getting present to where you are and what you’re about to do.

Listen in to hear:

• What I do when nerves hit just before I walk on stage

• My ‘standard start’ that lets me settle, ground and get present

• How I connect with my audience, before going on stage and as I’m on stage to ground and calm

• My little tip for making eye contact with your audience (even when it’s a big one)
