“It may be all talk, but there’s a lot to be said for overcoming stage fright: The unrelenting phenomenon can prevent you from attaining social and professional success. Naistadt helps you pinpoint the reasons that you clam up during important presentations and in front of crowds. She targets your nervousness profile and cultivates specific ways you can overcome the jitters, working through “surface” and hidden obstacles so you can shine.”

— Rebecca Louie, NY Daily News

“In this approachable how-to book, a former actor turned professional speaker lays out a path to confident public speaking... Naistadt’s anecdotal tales of her own experiences as an actor who struggled with inhibitions and anxiety, as well as her tales of clients and their public speaking travails, give this manual a friendly, conversational tone that should appeal to any person facing a big presentation, whether it’s a high school senior planning for college interviews or a high-level employee making a year-end report.”

— Publishers Weekly

“Excellent advice for overcoming common [public speaking] fears and obstacles. A fine guide, recommended.”

— Library Journal
