Glossophobia (Gloss-o-FO-bee-uh)

Glossophobia, a fear of public speaking is a common type of social phobia, (social anxiety disorder). Glossophobics feel excessive self-consciousness, fear humiliation in social situations where they may be embarrassed or judged in front of others.

Face your fears

Envision your fear and take control

    • If Public Speaking was a wild animal?
    • Which animal. How would you tame it?

Reward Yourself

    • If Public Speaking was bitter chocolate
    • How much sugar would you need to make it tasty?

Examine the evidence

    • If Public Speaking was laid out on a slab.
    • How would you conduct the autopsy?

Imagine the worst

    • Public Speaking has dragged you to the top of the Empire State Building, like King Kong,
    • What steps would you take to save yourself?

Make a Trade-In

If you could cure Glossophobia by trading it in for a more reasonable, unreasonable fear, which phobia would you choose?

      • Tonitrophobia, Fear of thunder
      • Venustraphobia, Fear of beautiful women
      • Selenophobia, Fear of the moon
      • Autophobia, Fear of being alone
      • Podophobia Fear of feet

Courage VS Security

You find a boulder impailed with a magic sword. Public Speaking is required to loosen the sword.

Question: How do you convince the stone that you are the right carrier of the sword?
