Speaking Without Fear in Public & Making Small Talk is Tough!Fear of speaking in front of others is Americans' #1 fear. It is so strong that it leaves fear of death well behind it in seventh place. Jerry Seinfeld once quipped, "At a funeral most people would rather be in the casket than giving the eulogy." This applies to making conversations as well.Over 95% of people report that they do not want to meet or converse with strangers. What they typically experience is a racing heart, rapid breathing, sweaty palms, dry mouth, memory loss or a heightened desire to escape. This form of social anxiety occurs whenever they anticipate or encounter the speaking situation they fear.
