Linda Ugelow, a speaking confidence and vocal coach, to discuss her journey from struggling with public speaking to becoming a guide for others in overcoming their own fears. Linda shares her story, beginning with her career as a dancer and musician in a women’s world music group, where she excelled in performance but grappled with introducing songs from the stage. Despite her extensive background in expressive arts, Linda’s fear of public speaking persisted until she found herself facing it head-on in the emerging world of live-streaming with Periscope.

Through determination and self-reflection, Linda began her quest to conquer her fear, experimenting with common techniques like meditation, affirmations, and deep breathing. However, she soon realized that simply managing her fear wasn’t enough—she wanted to eliminate it completely. In a breakthrough moment, Linda uncovered deep-rooted memories that had taught her it was unsafe to be in the spotlight, which she was able to address using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), visualization, and forgiveness exercises.

By tapping into these root causes, Linda transformed her anxiety and embraced a new career path: helping others overcome their speaking fears. Now, as a confidence coach, she equips her clients with practical tools and insights for letting go of stage fright and stepping into their true voice.
