Nothing else on the planet does it faster. How I got here… Born: Skinny kid with crooked teeth in Karachi, Pakistan. I believed I was just destined to be a socially anxious wreck my whole life. Undergrad in Malaysia: Started coaching fellow students on presentations - most of them were not native English speakers. They made lots of progress and improved their grades. That’s when I realized the problem was never the language, it was the lack of practice. Moved to Canada: Started an MBA. Failed my first semester. Realized I was more interested in teaching than anything else. Started training students, faculty, and local business owners. Weeks later: Won my first public speaking contest. Within 6 months, ran 32 speech workshops on campus. Not long after: Delivered my first TEDx talk. Then my second that crossed 1 million views. Then: Founded SpeakLikeACEO.com. Built the CEO Model - the framework that’s now trained executives across 4 continents. Today: Taught at 8 universities across the world. Have trained more than 30,000 CEOs and leaders through workshops, corporate training, and online programs. 5 million followers and counting. With my videos, I want to show you not only that you can transform into a confident public speaker but do it in very little time. --- Connect with me: INSTAGRAM:   / dyirimtc6-u   LINKEDIN:   / yasirkhancoaching   0:00 Intro: The fear of freezing up 1:15 What blanking out actually is 2:10 Why your brain blocks information 3:42 Social status and survival 4:45 Why ideas come back later 5:30 Calmness equals clarity 6:00 Dealing with uncertainty 7:30 Using rehearsal to build proof 9:05 Practice vs. preparation 10:15 The cold shower analogy 11:35 Riding the 3-minute anxiety wave 12:55 Stopping the nervous loop 14:10 Focus on service, not validation 15:40 The Sandwich Technique 17:05 Example: Speaking on the spot 18:15 Summary and final tips
