It’s a frequently asked Question
in trainings, workshops and public speaking coaching.

You’re feeling prepared for your speech, your toast, your presentation and suddenly the thought floats through your head:
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY HANDS!!

You panic. You sweat. You stammer. You stumble. Your focus goes out the window. Your mind goes blank. Suddenly the moment you’ve been waiting for is a mess. A muddled mumble. Your breath is shaky.
