In this episode, I'm getting real about something that's plagued me for years—stage fright. Hi, I'm Hattie Voelcker, and today I'm sharing my personal journey of battling nerves, self-doubt, and the pressure to be perfect every time I stepped on stage.

I'll take you behind the scenes of my life as a singer and aspiring barrister, where I was convinced that if I just nailed my technique, everything else would fall into place. Spoiler alert: It didn't. But what did change everything was learning to be kinder to myself and realizing that confidence doesn't come from perfection—it comes from embracing who you are, mistakes and all.

The miracle is that when you do this, your confidence improves and you actually make fewer and fewer mistakes.

It's a win-win situation.

Whether you're terrified of public speaking, anxious about performing, or just looking to build some self-confidence, I've got you covered. I'll share the techniques that helped me move past my fears and start performing with more freedom and joy.

So grab a cup of tea, get comfy, and join me as I talk about how you, too, can change the patterns that hold you back and find the courage to truly shine.
