    Cameras on so it feels like an audience. No one wants to talk into darkness.

    Stay MUTED til it’s your turn.

    Avoid moving around. Excessive moving around is distracting.  

    Be still and WELL LIT.  Be sure to be stationary and well lit when you perform.

    No hate speech or personal attacks. Funny, edgy, awkward, vulnerable? Fine. Cruel? Nope.

    What happens in Open Mic stays in Open Mic. Don’t record, repost, or share someone else’s material or story without permission.

Join us for OPEN MIC! Want to be a more confident speaker? Reduce speaking anxiety? Have fun? Make friends?

EXPOSURE WORKS. Repeated exposure to public speaking can significantly reduce anxiety.

MODELING MATTERS. Women become more willing to speak when they see other women speaking up.

ABILITY ISN'T THE PROBLEM. PARTICIPATION IS. Women who speak publicly don't perform worse—they're simply less likely to volunteer.

ANXIETY STARTS EARLY. PRACTICE SHOULD TOO. Women and younger adults report higher public-speaking anxiety.

CONSISTENCY IS KEY. One course can help. Continued practice can help those gains grow. We can't eliminate speaking anxiety. But we can give you a PLACE TO PRACTICE despite it.
