15 years in nuclear power

I spent 15 years in nuclear power as a project engineer, project manager and team leader, with a foundation degree in nuclear engineering. It's an industry where a mistake isn't a bad quarter, and where preparation is taken very seriously.

Over those years I worked alongside a lot of very capable people, and saw how often the ones who knew the most lost their words the moment everyone turned to them.

I've been the person in the meeting with the answer, unable to get it out, heart racing. Never terribly, but enough to know it has nothing to do with how well you know your subject.

Why presenting

I didn't set out to specialize. Presenting is what my clients kept asking for, so that's where all my work now goes.

I think it's so common because of what presenting is. Everyone is looking at you, there's nowhere to hide, and you feel vulnerable. That's exactly the kind of moment your brain's alarm is built to react to. So it shows up in people you'd never expect: CFOs, founders, engineers, people who are very good at their jobs.

What I do, and what I don't

What I work on

The alarm itself. When it's your turn, the alarm system in your brain (the amygdala) activates, and the part that finds the words goes quiet. It's a learned response, and EFT weakens the link until it stops firing.

What I don't

Your slides, your voice or your delivery. You already have those. I work on the reaction that stops you using them.

How it runs

Three 90-minute sessions on Zoom, usually about a week apart. After session one, you decide whether to carry on. If not, sessions two and three are refunded in full, and you don't need to give a reason.

Why EFT

I first saw EFT work within my own family. As a child, my brother had a fear of injections and hospitals. After working with an EFT practitioner it went, and it has stayed gone for more than 20 years.

My mum went on to train as a practitioner herself, so I've known the method, and what it can do, for a long time.

Background

In a client's words

"I'm the CFO and a CFO should be able to do these things. Instead my heart would race, my voice would shake and I could never think of the right words. Sitting in a meeting waiting for my time to speak was the worst."

"My heart didn't race, I appeared confident, and the answers came to my head so much easier than before."
