What people are saying...
“I just wanted to say that the (best man's) speech couldn’t have gone any better. I used the numerous techniques we spoke about. I do really want to watch it back now too as I received a lot of compliments on the speech, I received a lot of laughs, and a lot of people i didn’t know got up to shake my hand on the way back to my seat. I even got stopped on my way out by the mother and father of the bride, who I’d met on the day to say how good the speech was and they were pleased that they had friends like me. Even got a couple of compliments saying I must do public speaking on a regular basis which was extremely nice to hear!! I also do have to say that I felt so pumped after the speech I hope it’s not the last time I have to give one! Thank you for all the help and the guidance as it really did help and made it an enjoyable experience in the end!”
Simon
“To Claire, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your help and expertise with public speaking. This week I was asked to present and spoke without any fear in front of 40 people, some of which were at senior management level.
I have my enjoyment of public speaking back! Thank you so much- it’s a gift. To go from where I was to where I am now in weeks feels magical! There are no limitations for me in my job now- I can enjoy it all, which feels wonderful. Your work is very special.
Huge thanks”
Jeremy
"I have to say it (reading the eulogy at Mum’s funeral) went even better than I had ever expected. I read your tips I had noted with you during the days before the funeral and read the notes you sent by email as follow up advice before going to bed two nights before. I made as many funny bits in the eulogy between the emotional bits as you suggested and tried to breathe and did the mindfulness tips whilst trying to get through the hymn before my turn to speak. I was proud in the end that I got through 20 minutes of talking and I didn’t cry. So many people said it was a wonderful eulogy and even my husband was impressed! I know you helped me in those weeks building up to the day so much and I will always be deeply grateful. I’m glad I came to see YOU and not anyone else."
Mary
“Hi Claire, I’ve been noticing some real improvements with myself both in professional and social environments. Almost all of my “symptoms” when I have to speak in front of people have all but gone, except from the occasional butterflies which I feel is very normal. It’s hard to put my finger on the exact cause of these improvements, I feel it’s more an accumulation of the many coaching/exercises you’ve taken me through. I feel I have achieved the goals we have set out, thank you for all of your efforts with me, you’ve really helped me and I am very grateful. I’ll be in touch if I need anymore coaching😊 All the best”

More about Stage Fright, Performance Anxiety and Glossophobia
Public speaking or performing can make anyone nervous, even celebrities! There are even terms for this: stage fright, or performance anxiety. It's that feeling of worry or fear you might get when you have to perform in front of people, even if it's just a camera. This can happen when you have to give a speech or presentation; it's just your body's way of getting ready for something important.
Glossophobia is the medical term for the strong and persistent fear of public speaking or performing. It's a common condition that affects many people, causing them to feel nervous or anxious when they have to speak or perform in front of an audience. Many feel ashamed of their fear and scared to be seen. Think of it as stage fright or performance anxiety, but with a fancy medical name! It simply means a strong dislike of speaking or performing in public. Even talking to a small group can be tough if you have glossophobia.
Stage fright and performance anxiety can hit you anywhere, not just on stage! Here are some common situations where nerves might show up:
- Public Speaking: Presentations, meetings, interviews, assessment centers, eulogies, wedding speeches, after-dinner speeches.
- Performance: Singing, playing music, acting, comedy routines.
- Competition: Sports events, driving tests, motorbike tests, exams.
- Social Situations: Dating, public speaking in smaller settings.
