The majority of people are scared to speak in front of an audience. And for good reason... Lots of things can go wrong.

But when you get in front of an audience, lots of things can go right as well. Those who are willing to get on stage to speak have a tremendous advantage over people who don't. Every successful blogger, podcast, author, entrepreneur, and expert has made peace with speaking in public.
