Beyond the Words: How to Conquer Your Fear of Public Speaking and Confidently Present Yourself to the World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781637304457)

Dry mouth. Sweaty palms. Itchy hives. All eyes are on you, the audience is ready to hang on your every word, but there's just one problem... You. Can't. Speak.

In Beyond the Words, Williams reframes how readers view public speaking, offers solutions to fear-induced anxiety, and refocuses readers on the ultimate goal: human connection. Whether speaking to a full auditorium, a boardroom, or an attractive date across the table, readers are given the tools to find their voice, better present themselves, and effectively communicate and connect with others.

This book is for those asking questions like:

• Are people really interested in what I have to say?
• Are listeners benefiting from my talk? What am I getting in return?
• How can I control my physical response to fear?

Ultimately, readers will find the self confidence needed to build connections through public presentation. Beyond the Words dispels the myth that public speaking is only for professionals, experts, or extroverts, and teaches readers that "public speaking is attainable by all."
