Johnny Ball | How to feel more grounded when you're about to present

One of the most distracting things you can do when giving any kind of presentation is to be shuffling about or unconsciously moving around your stage area. One of the things I see most often is what I call the speaker wobble and it makes you look nervous and ungrounded.

I'll share with you an exercise in this episode to help you ground yourself and stop wobbling and shuffling around on stage so that you only move with volition.
