To overcome your fear of public speaking, start by doing small activities that involve speaking in front of others. This can include giving presentations or talks to your friends or small groups and asking for feedback. You can also practice on your own by recording yourself and then listening back to the recordings. Additionally, research and read up on techniques such as visualization and deep breathing, which can help you to stay calm and more confident. Finally, don't forget to take the time to prepare for your public speaking opportunities. Rehearsing and writing down your speech will help you to feel more comfortable and confident when it's time to speak.
