    419 | How to speak with confidence (and why it can be hard)

    08/06/2026 | 21 mins.
    Do you struggle to speak confidently at work? In this episode, you'll learn exactly why speaking with confidence is so much harder than it looks, and what to do about it.

    Most people focus on learning the foundations of executive communication - how to articulate your thoughts clearly, how to sound polished. But confident speaking isn’t just about articulating your thoughts clearly. It requires mastering three separate sets of skills: technical skills, performance skills, and pressure skills. In today’s episode, I’m teaching you the difference between these three sets of skills and sharing my best tips for getting strong across them.

    You'll learn how to speak with confidence even when you're nervous, how to manage negative self-talk in real time, and how to bounce back after fumbling your words.

    If you want to become a confident speaker who can handle high-stakes meetings, tough questions, and pressure-filled rooms, this is the episode for you.
