<p>When you try to get confidence by visualizing your listeners undressed, you create an uneven power dynamic. Now you&#8217;re feeling more powerful as the dressed one.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why that&#8217;s bad news: People defend against an assertion of power. Nobody wants to feel one-down. And they will pick up on that vibe from you. They&#8217;re <strong>subconsciously guarded</strong> now and can&#8217;t openly receive what you have to say. </p>
<p>To communicate effectively, <strong>choose a different way</strong> to be relaxed when you speak so that you can connect to your listeners without a power struggle. EFT is the fastest way I know of to get rid of that tension so it doesn&#8217;t come back. For EFT coaching to get comfortable speaking &#8212; just <a href="http://speakingmadefearless.com/contact" target="_blank">contact me</a>.</p>
