290. The self-compassionate speaker with Dr Hayley Quinn
Ready to stop beating yourself up and start supporting yourself as a speaker? In this heartfelt episode I sit down with psychologist, wellbeing expert, and author Dr. Hayley Quinn to explore what it really means to become a self-compassionate speaker. From pre-speech nerves to post-presentation self-criticism, this conversation dives into the emotional reality of public speaking — and how to navigate it with more kindness, regulation, and self-trust. Dr. Haley shares practical tools for calming the nervous system, reframing anxiety, softening the inner critic, and developing a compassionate inner voice that supports rather than sabotages. We Explore: The difference between self-compassion, self-care, and self-love How anxiety and excitement can feel almost identical in the body The “threat system” and why speakers often go into overdrive How to develop a kinder inner voice Why there is no “one right way” to prepare for speaking Connect with Dr Hayley Quinn on LinkedIn and find out more about her book here - https://drhayleydquinn.com/ REGISTER FOR THE FREE CLASS HERE - Speak to be Remembered 🔗 LINKS: Get your copy of my book VOICEPRINT NOW - https://www.sallyprosser.com.au/book ✨ Get the VOICEPRINT CODES ORACLE CARD DECK: AUS/NZ CLICK HERE OUTSIDE AUS/NZ CLICK HERE NEW CLIENTS - 60 min 1:1 BOOK HERE Want to explore what’s holding your voice back?
