In this episode, I speak with Nick Field, an investment manager based in Sydney, Australia, who began with a fear of public speaking. We chart his journey from awkward school debates and scripted speeches to founding speaking clubs to help others speak with confidence.
Nick shares his top takeaways: how layering technical expertise with simple metaphors wins over any audience; the balance between obsessive preparation and playful improv; using stories to create empathy; and negotiating from genuine curiosity, not force. By the end, you’ll have concrete tools to find your own voice—introverts, this one’s for you.
Thank you for listening.
