Overcoming the fear of media interviews through training

Overcoming the fear of media interviews

She came into the session convinced she was terrible at media interviews.

Fifteen years of experience. A genuine expert in her field.

But the moment a camera appeared, everything she knew seemed to disappear.

“I overcomplicate everything,” she told me beforehand. “I try to get across five points when one would do.”

At least she knew it.

What she didn’t know was why it kept happening and that it was completely fixable.

By the end of the day and the final interview, she watched herself back on camera and said something I hear more often than you’d think.

“I felt so much better prepared, and you can see that when I’m answering – such a big difference from my first interview!”

And it was.

It took just a few hours to help her find her voice.

If you or your team feel hesitant about facing the camera, our media training can help you find your voice and speak in media interviews with confidence. Please get in touch to see how we can help you prepare for your next interview.

Media training in Central London with a friend turned client

This is D, one of my oldest school friends.

When she approached me a few weeks ago to media train her I had to give it some thought.

Would I be able to separate our long friendship and deliver the training she needed as a business owner and expert? Would we end up wasting too much time gossiping and discussing our old raving days (please note the trainers)!

It was a no-brainer, as a successful Mum and business owner, just like me, I knew I owed it to her to treat her just like any other client.

She was the model participant, she listened, took the advice and feedback, handled some very nasty questions and came out the other end having massively improved AND with a smile on her face, as did I.

I love working at the ctn group studio in Central London, you could not find a more accommodating, welcoming, realistic and private location for media training.
