It happens all the time. You know how to do something. You might have done it a ton of times before. But the moment you step in front of someone else and have to do it you freeze.
You might be before a whole group of people, like giving a presentation, or just in front of one person, like in a job interview. You get tense. And sweaty. You can’t remember what to say or do. You might even shake.
Things that usually come easily to us are suddenly really difficult when others are watching us.
In this interview with Gina Parris we talk about performance anxiety and how you can use what Gina calls “3 R” to move past it.

Thanks Gene, Great interview and I love the way you distinguish the information that our emotions is telling us. Very helpful!
