We can feel so exposed when we speak: I used to feel that vulnerability constantly, of being completely ‘alone’ up there, and not having all the resources I needed to cope.
I’d imagine that’s also part of your experience at some point. No matter what level of seniority or experience we get to, life or work challenges can still knock us off course. It’s just human!
If lack of connection gets in your way, this might be useful: I ran a 20-minute LinkedIn livestream on this topic yesterday.

There are 3 main areas where we need connection, at any level – and particularly if nerves are a factor.
Whether you’re addressing a room, a camera, or a team meeting.
I explored:
- Why disconnection happens (even to seasoned speakers)
- The power of turning toward your audience
- How to quiet the comparison trap and connect with your own growth
The goal: for you to feel more comfortable and less ‘alone’ out there, if that resonates with you.
Warm wishes for your next speaking scenario.
