Public speaking can be intimidating, especially if you’re new to it or lack confidence in your ability. But did you know that podcasting can be a helpful tool for improving your public speaking skills? As a form of audio content, podcasting provides a unique opportunity to practice speaking and refine your delivery, all while sharing your message with a wider audience.
Public Speaking: The Power of Social Proof
In an era where so many people are taking short cuts and “faking it”, events and their audiences want the real deal. They want what psychologists call “Social Proof” – credentials that show you know what you’re talking about, you’re engaging and you’ve been invited to speak on other stages. That’s why podcasts are a powerful way to build Social Proof by allowing you to rapidly and cost effectively build a portfolio of virtual speaking engagements at scale.

One of the biggest benefits of podcasting for public speaking is that it allows you to practice speaking in a low-pressure environment. Unlike speaking in front of a live audience, recording a podcast gives you the flexibility to pause, re-record, and edit your content until you’re happy with the final product.

Additionally, podcasting provides an opportunity to hone your message. When you’re speaking in front of an audience, it can be difficult to gauge their response to your message in real-time. With podcasting, you can take the time to craft a clear and compelling message that resonates with your listeners.
Finally, podcasting helps you build your confidence as a speaker. The more you speak on a podcast, the more comfortable and confident you’ll become in your abilities. This confidence can translate to other areas of your life, such as giving presentations at work or speaking at conferences and events.
