I Asked Reddit for Their Worst Stage Fears. Here’s How to Fix Every One

Stage fright isn't a sign you're bad at speaking. It's your body doing exactly what it was built to do. In this video I go through the 11 most common stage fears, explain what's actually happening in your brain and body, and give you practical fixes for each one. I asked the r/PublicSpeaking community on Reddit what scares them most on stage. Their answers shaped this video, including one fear almost nobody talks about. Thank you to everyone who shared! After more than 15 years on stage, 400+ events, keynotes for companies like Audi, Siemens and Deutsche Bank, and hosting Austria's startup TV show "2 Minuten 2 Millionen", I still get nervous. The difference is knowing what to do with it. 💬 Which stage fear is yours? Tell me in the comments. I read every single one. CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 1:28 1. Going blank or forgetting your point 6:56 2.
