by Regina Huber

Public speaking and presenting doesn’t have to be scary. This book helps you prepare mentally, physically and energetically for any speaking situation, online or offline. It equips you with tools that make speaking up in meetings, in front of a room or from a stage less daunting. It is brimful with ideas and techniques that allow you to move through speaking anxiety so you come across as more powerful, authentic and confident; to engage and connect with your audience on a deep level; and to increase your success as a speaker and communicator, while having more fun in this role. It was written for anyone with a message to share, whether you’re an employee aspiring to be a leader, an entrepreneur wanting to get the word out about your business or to pitch to investors, a sales professional looking to become a more powerful presenter, a teacher or instructor, a coach, an inventor, an attorney, an activist, a politician, an emerging motivational speaker, or a woman in Finance, Tech or Law seeking to have a voice in a male-dominated world so you can accelerate your career.

[Marie Abanga · Rating 5 out of 5]

(I never knew I could fall in love with a self help book), you can zap from ‘freaking out to freaking amazing’ with determination and dedication. You may need help but it is possible. You will need to be authentic and confident always, and know today if you never did or were not sure of it, that your vulnerability is a strength and not a weakness. Come on now give me more vulnerable situations…anytime anywhere…exploit them and let them catapult you to speak up, stand out and shine… I mean why settle for victim and throw all those endless pity parties while people around you who may have even gone through worst are now making a healthy and wealthy living sharing their stories?

Now, have you heard of power dance? Regina introduces this in her book. Give it a try, musn’t be an entire song and that can be anywhere anytime. And when you are one of those I used to be…you know the one who will shake and panic and worry about all what will, would, could go wrong right up to outright freezing on the podium, be it because you forgot your message or one ‘vampire’ in the audience shot you that ‘stare’; you will witness a radical and permanent transformation after reading this book.

All in all, this book is not only for those starting out into their speaking journies whichever category, but also for those of us some where in between. I give this book a 5 star because I honestly feel Regina wrote way too much to get anyone even in elementary school to be able to speak up, stand out and shine.
