Dr. Fish joined Shaun Enright on his podcast, Drop the Stress Not the Ball to unpack why you can’t keep performance anxiety out — and why you shouldn’t try. Shaun’s show digs into the mental side of staying calm under pressure without sacrificing performance, which made it the perfect place to go deep about performance anxiety and mindfulness.
They cover the three conditions that trigger speech fright, why your nervous system acts as a bodyguard that steps in to protect you, and how Rise Up Eight’s READ method gives you something to do with the nerves instead of fighting them. If you’ve ever frozen in a boardroom, an interview, or on a stage, this one’s for you.
