Episode 7: STAGE FRIGHT
In this episode we will take a look at stage fright, otherwise known as performance anxiety.
I am not an expert on this and have used my personal experience to discuss some of the strategies I use to deal with my own performance anxiety.
I have also used the resources below for the information in this episode. I hope you find it as useful as I did. You might even recognise some things that you already do!
