Somatic Public Speaking Coaching

with

Kate Bringardner

Fear in public speaking isn’t a confidence issue.

It’s a nervous system issue.



And your nervous system can change.

  • Avoiding speaking in meeting

  • Second-guessing decisions

  • Outsized Inner Critic

  • Saying no to opportunities

  • Feeling like an imposter in high-stakes rooms

  • Emotional reactions that don’t fit the moment

Beliefs of a low capacity
nervous system

  • I’m just not confident enough

  • I’m never be the person I want to be

  • Everyone hates me

  • Why even bother

  • I’ll just stay quiet/invisible

  • It will never change/I’ll always feel this way

  • I’m broken

The more attuned you are to your body signals, the better decisions you’ll be able to make.

The better the choices, the better the outcomes.

Fear or anxiety is not a sign something is wrong necessarily - but that there is something to pay attention to.

If you have time to think about it then you have time to do something about it.
Somatic Coaching can help you deliver a message more effectively, communicate more clearly and live more authentically.

  • "Kate’s open and honest feedback is invaluable. She has a unique way of observing behaviors. All of those little things that undermine our success and we don’t even realize we’re doing them. Her advice is given in such a way that it allows you to grow and improve but at the same time remain your authentic self. The tools and techniques that I learned during our sessions will continue to serve me in both my professional and personal life.

    — Darlene

  • "Transformational!"

    — Amy, Founder Write is Might

  • Kate has a remarkable ability to identify specific areas for improvement and provide the tools necessary to communicate with greater clarity, confidence, and impact.

What is Somatic Coaching?

Somatic Coaching is a body-forward approach to personal development that uses the awareness of physical sensation, movement and mindset to effect lasting change.

It moves coaching from the traditional approach of talking and intellectual understanding to something deeper and more effective.

With somatic coaching you work with the brain and the body to identify patterns, subconscious beliefs and behaviors.

Whether you seek better emotional regulation, more ease with self and others, or the confidence to take on the world, Somatic Coaching can help you on your way!

Want to learn more about Somatics, Public Speaking, and Presence? Curious about the nervous system, fulfilling your potential and building the internal resources to get you through? If you’ve ever questioned your confidence, been frustrated at your gifts or fearful of the podium, I invite you in. We explore an array of topics; Internal Critic, Breathwork, Integration, Intention, Physical Expression and Self-Awareness.
