About Sandy:
Sandy Bjorgen is a RSP (Recovered Shy Person). I was once so shy that I couldn't even talk to myself! Okay, I'm kidding. But seriously, it was tough to overcome. Have you ever had a similar experience? Do you avoid public speaking?
Along the way, I learned how to turn nerves into nerve. I learned how to make progress easier and faster. Now I train people to think and speak under pressure. They learn to communicate more effectively, stand out from the crowd and have fun doing it!
My sessions are interactive, experiential and educational. They're entertaining, creative and supportive. They provide opportunities for you to explore beyond your comfort zone, to discover and enhance your strengths, to discover your challenges and find better ways to manage them. They're opportunities to receive personalized, constructive feedback and targeted coaching that will help you increase your impact on your business.
Many, though not all, of my clients experience "stage fright" or social anxiety in certain situations. They anticipate making mistakes and being judged negatively, and this fear holds them back. Some are nervous only before large crowds, or just one-on-one, or only in front of a video camera.
Other clients don't consider themselves "shy" but realize that they need to be more effective one-on-one; or they need to be more dynamic, unique and interesting in order to capture and hold the attention of their audiences.
They all learn to make better and faster decisions about what to say, how to say it, when to say it--and when to stop!
