This is part 2 of a three-part series on public speaking fear. If you've been with us for the last few weeks, I started by explaining the difference between glossophobia and public speaking fear. In those episodes, we discovered that glossophobia is an unreasonable fear of public speaking that keeps people from presenting in the first place. 

Last week, I covered part one in this series about where public speaking fear comes from. We covered a number of different activities that presenters do to reduce nervousness that actually causes nervousness. For instance, relying on notes to deliver a presentation or memorizing a presentation will make you more nervous.

Today, I'm covering a simple four-step process that will help you eliminate this fear. And then next week, I'll give you ten tips that will help you more easily implement this four-step process.
