How to speak up confidently, even when you feel scared Dina Behrman & Emma Gaskin

Описание: Join PR expert Dina Behrman and public speaking coach Emma Gaskin for a conversation on how to speak up with confidence, even if you feel scared to do so.

Emma Gaskin is the founder of The Speaking Hub. Emma has over a decade of experience from helping 1000+ people find their voice again after stroke and brain injury as an NHS Speech & Language Therapist, to coaching female entrepreneurs and leaders to speak with authority and get paid to share their story. She created the SPEAK UP Method, a 5 part framework that takes women from feeling nervous or overlooked to owning the room, sharing their story and getting paid to speak.

In this Episode, Episode 7 of The Visibility Sessions Emma shares:

✨ How losing her voice in a relationship led to finding her purpose
✨ Why confidence comes after speaking, not before
✨ The three core fears holding women back from using their voice
✨ How fear of visibility shows up as fear of speaking
✨ Why being heard can feel more threatening than being wrong
✨ Simple ways to start using your voice (even in everyday situations)
✨ The power of pausing, and why silence builds authority
✨ How breath, grounding and energy affect how you’re perceived
✨ Why storytelling is essential for speaking, PR and visibility
✨ How to uncover your story (even if you think you don’t have one)
✨ The difference between micro stories and origin stories
✨ How speaking confidence supports PR, interviews and media features
✨ Mindset blocks around getting paid to speak, especially for women
