The Real Cost of Performance Anxiety (and How You Can Fix It in Just 3 Sessions)

If you were ever kept up at night tossing and turning in a cold sweat, feeling sick to your stomach, and woke up dreading the day ahead, chances are you understand what anxiety feels like.

The reality is that most people suffering with anxiety and specifically performance anxiety feel like they are stuck in this cycle for life, BUT it doesn’t have to be this way.

Let’s get real for a second: Performance anxiety isn’t just some minor inconvenience we can brush off. It’s a problem that affects every part of our life—our career, our relationships, our health, our confidence, and especially our bank account.

If you’ve ever felt your stomach drop, your heart race, or your mind go blank right before an important presentation, meeting, or performance, you know exactly what I’m talking about. You’re not just nervous; you’re paralyzed by fear.

And the cost?

Well, it’s bigger than most people realize.

The Hidden Costs of Performance Anxiety
You might think, “Okay, so I get nervous. Big deal.” But have you ever thought about what this anxiety is actually costing you?

Missed Promotions and Income:
You know you’re good at what you do. You’ve put in the hours, you’ve mastered your field, but when it’s time to show up—when it’s time to speak, perform, or lead—you freeze. And that freeze might just be the thing that keeps hard working people stuck. It’s what’s holding you back from getting that next raise, promotion, or commission check. The opportunities slip away, and you watch someone else get the recognition and reward that should have been yours. Ouch! I have been there.

When I think back to when I owned my fitness business of 20 years and realize that I was too shy and afraid to self promote, I also see that this was a very expensive problem to have. Everybody missed out! Qualified ladies could have joined an amazing and supportive community while having fun and getting into the best shape of their life and my business and reputation could have soared exponentially.


Every time you avoid stepping up or stumble through an important moment, like I did, it chips away at how others see us—and worse, how we see ourselves.

You start doubting your own abilities.

You might be the most knowledgeable person in the room, but when you can’t show that to others, it leaves you feeling inadequate, and even worse, people start treating you that way. I felt “not good enough” for way too long and felt a constant need to prove myself to others. The comparison game became exhausting and I felt like I couldn’t win.


The constant worry, fear, and stress take a toll on your mental and physical health. You spend days dreading an upcoming events and nights replaying every moment in your head, filled with regret. The emotional strain can leave you feeling drained, exhausted, and even burned out. I also remember feeling shame, because I knew I could be further along, and instead of taking bold action I watched the world go by.


Here’s the thing: Most people suffering from performance anxiety feel like they’re doomed. Maybe you’ve tried techniques like deep breathing, visualization, or even therapy, only to find yourself back in the same place—terrified, frustrated, and unable to break free. It’s like carrying a weight on your chest that only gets heavier.

But what if I told you that it doesn’t have to be this way? That there’s an easy solution you’ve probably never even heard of?

The Solution is Simpler Than You Think
What most people don’t realize is that you don’t need years of therapy, countless self-help books, or endless “practice” to overcome performance anxiety. There’s a faster way to get results—a way that helps you rewire the very source of your fear, right where it lives in your subconscious mind.

In just three sessions, you can experience a life-changing transformation that frees you from the grip of performance anxiety for good. This isn’t a band-aid solution; it’s about eliminating the root cause of your fear so you can step up, speak out, and perform at your best without that crippling anxiety holding you back.

What’s Life Like After the Anxiety?


Picture this: You walk into a room filled with people, ready to present, speak, or perform. Your heart is steady, your mind is clear, your voice sounds like velvet, and your words flow effortlessly. You feel completely in control, calm, and confident. The fear that used to cripple you is gone. You no longer spend days dreading these moments or nights beating yourself up for what you didn’t say.

Now, you’re the person who seizes opportunities, gets the promotion, earns the respect, and finally feels worthy of the recognition you’ve always deserved.

You Don’t Have to Stay Stuck
Performance anxiety is real, and it costs you more than you may realize. But it doesn’t have to be your story forever. You deserve a solution that actually works—one that can deliver life-changing results in just a short time.

Why let this hold you back when you can finally break free? The answer is within reach, and in just three sessions, your life can look completely different.

A fast, effective, and natural solution

“Why didn’t I do this sooner?” … or… “why didn’t anybody tell me about this?” are phrases, as a hypnotherapist, I hear on a daily basis because there is a lot of confusion about hypnotherapy.

5 reasons you might want to consider hypnotherapy, especially if you have been dealing with an issue and feel stuck

1. Many of my clients have spent thousands of dollars on therapy and treatments without seeing the results they hoped for. With hypnotherapy, we go directly to the root cause of the issue, which often makes change possible in just a few sessions. When you think about the time, money, and energy spent on other approaches, hypnotherapy becomes a highly cost-effective solution because it delivers fast and lasting results.

2. Consider what it’s costing you to continue living with this issue. Whether it’s the emotional toll, lost opportunities, or the habits holding you back, the real expense is staying stuck. My services offer a fast, efficient way to break free from years of struggle, which ultimately saves you money and time in the long run.

3. Imagine what your life will look like when this problem is behind you. The confidence, freedom, and ease you’ll experience are priceless. The investment in hypnotherapy isn’t just about stopping a bad habit—it’s about transforming your life for good. How much would that change be worth to you?

4. I’ve worked with clients who were in your shoes—frustrated after spending money on other methods that didn’t work. After just a few sessions with me, they were able to break free from their struggles. The relief they found was immediate, and they always say, ‘I wish I had done this sooner.’

5. Unlike other approaches that can drag on for years, my methods work fast, are easy to implement, and have no side effects.

It’s not just an expense—it’s an investment in your future well-being, one that can lead to lasting results, freedom, relief, confidence and peace.

Steve Jobs is a genius

Steve Jobs is a genius.

Steve Jobs is a magician.

Steve Jobs is a legend.

I am saying “is” and not “was”, because Steve Jobs is practically with us every day. Even if you don’t own an Apple product, you know somebody who does.

That’s the power, the legacy, and the omnipresence of Steve Jobs.

Now, imagine if Steve Jobs had been too afraid to speak in public. What if he had let fear hold him back, thinking he wasn’t good enough, or felt too shy to step into the spotlight? Imagine if he had stayed in his comfort zone, comparing himself to others and thinking he didn’t measure up.

That would have been tragic, right? 

The world might have missed out on one of the greatest innovators of our time.

Are You Holding Yourself Back?

I meet talented and skilled professionals every day who are held back by the fear of public speaking. They don’t get the respect or the rewards they deserve because they’re too afraid to speak up. They spend days, months, even years feeling disappointed and defeated, missing out on opportunities because of this fear.

But here’s the good news: Speaking confidently and with authority is something you can learn in a very short time. No need for years of therapy or toastmasters meetings, endless breathing exercises, or sedative medications.

I’m an expert in helping people let go of unwanted fears using hypnosis. It’s about changing your mindset hypnotically. You’ve already told yourself, “I’m qualified to speak, I can do this,” but there’s still that fear holding you back. Hypnosis helps you reprogram your subconscious mind, so you can replace that fear with confidence.

Imagine a New You

Picture yourself standing up to speak, feeling calm and in control. Your words flow effortlessly, and your voice is steady. You’re not just trying to get through it—you’re captivating your audience with ease. You’re finally getting the recognition, respect, and rewards you deserve.

And instead of watching someone like Steve Jobs do it, you’re the one up there, speaking with authority, presence, and joy.

If you’re tired of being held back by fear, it’s time for a change. With hypnosis, you can break free from this fear and step into the spotlight with confidence. I am here to help you unlock your potential and help you become the speaker you’ve always wanted to be.

It’s your turn to stand up and speak…

So it’s your turn to stand up and speak.

You stand up and you’re holding on to something in your hand like a death grip so no one sees your hand is shaking 

You hear your own voice and you’re trying to speak in a way so you no longer sound like your voice is trembling 

You’re there and you’re trying your best to keep your composure yet you’re terrified on the inside… 

Sound familiar?

If this is what happens to you every time you have to speak in public, we need to talk. 

How Hypnotherapy Can Transform Your Speaking

Through hypnosis, we tap into the incredible power of your subconscious mind. All those thoughts you’ve been telling yourself—how smart you are, how talented you are—get buried deep in your unconscious. Hypnosis brings them to the surface, turning those positive beliefs into your automatic response. The fear and anxiety start to fade, replaced by a sense of calm and confidence.

Imagine This Instead

Picture yourself standing up to speak, feeling calm, confident, and completely in control. Your words flow effortlessly, and your voice is steady. You’re no longer just “trying to get through it.” Instead, you’re speaking with power and presence, captivating your audience with ease, while also finally receiving the recognition, praise, respect, income and fulfillment you desire and deserve.

But that’s not all. Hypnosis isn’t just about feeling better. It’s about using empowered language and influential communication to become a more effective and charismatic speaker. Imagine having a secret weapon that makes your speaking not just bearable, but impactful.

A Simple and Profound Way to Improve Your Life

There’s a straightforward way to tap into your mind and create powerful changes.


As a hypnotherapist, my role is like that of a skilled detective. To help clients overcome issues like anxiety, fear of public speaking, or even habits like vaping, I need to understand how their current mindset was formed. It’s about dissecting their “thinking,” “feeling,” and “doing” strategies to enable a transformative change.


Take the fear of public speaking as an example. Many people with this fear focus on what could go wrong—they imagine feeling anxious, nervous, or shy, and they rehearse the worst outcomes in their minds. By constantly dwelling on these negatives, they inadvertently program their subconscious to create exactly what they fear. This happens because the subconscious mind interprets thoughts, images, and emotions literally—it doesn’t understand negation or humor. So, when someone thinks, “I don’t want to be nervous,” their subconscious mind only picks up on the concept of “nervous,” leading to exactly that feeling.


See the problem?


The solution is surprisingly simple.


Since our subconscious mind drives 95% of our actions, we need to be intentional about what we think. Start focusing on what you want instead. Thoughts like “I want to be confident,” “I want to be relaxed,” or “I want to be self-assured” plant seeds in your mind. Over time, these positive thoughts will grow into reality, as you guide your subconscious with clear instructions.

Is it really that simple?

Yes, it is.

But don’t just take my word for it—try it for yourself and see what happens.
