About this listen

Do you struggle to communicate in social situations? Are you worried about being misunderstood or judged when you speak? Has avoiding social gatherings become a norm?

If yes, then you're not alone. Millions of people around the world find it hard to talk to others. In fact, in the United States alone, 12.1% of adults suffer from a social anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. Often times, social anxiety leads to social awkwardness, which could have negative consequences on your life, especially if you’ve become accustomed to any of its potential side effects. You see, communication is essential in every aspect of your life as it helps connect you to other people, build relationships, and accomplish your goals–personal and professional! The worst of its harmful effects may have already hit you.

Why do you keep getting passed over for that promotion at work? What about failed relationships because of misunderstandings?

The good news? Learning how to effectively communicate takes time, but it's a skill that can be mastered with the appropriate strategies and consistent effort. This audio book provides a wealth of advice on how to overcome social anxiety, bolster self-esteem, and develop conversational skills that will come in handy in any social situation.

Inside this life-changing guide to unlocking your full potential and bettering your life through communication, you will discover:

How lack of communication negatively impacts your life—poor communication destroys, both internally and externally!

The critical importance of not being self-critical—reframe your negative thoughts and be kind to yourself so that you can openly talk to others

How to rebuild your self-esteem and boost self-confidence—learn to talk to anyone without feeling nervous or uncomfortable

The significance of nonverbal communication—understand what people truly mean behind their silence and beyond their words!

Active listening skills you can harness for more meaningful conversation

Rich Resource for Building Communication Skills

What I appreciate about this book in particular is the attention given to the psychology behind the struggle to communicate to others -- things like overcoming negative thinking, overcoming self-criticism, and building confidence. If you can't deal with that stuff, the talking part will always be hard. Also I liked how you've got action steps following all the content.

It goes beyond the surface and helps you dive into the root causes of your anxiety, offering practical advice on boosting your confidence and leaving a lasting impression.

In today's world, where much of our interaction happens through screens and text messages, face-to-face communication can sometimes take a backseat. "People Person" is a timely reminder that this skill is still invaluable. Whether you're looking to overcome social anxiety, enhance your interpersonal skills, or simply become more adept at in-person communication, this book is a must-read that offers valuable insights and actionable strategies.

A book so many of us need

After the pandemic, it became apparent that we all have some work to do to get ourselves back out into society and stop hiding behind our phones or staying indoors. I am an entrepreneur who has spent so much of her time behind the computer but now need to start getting out and working with the public and talking to other business owners. So when I listened to chapter 4 about understanding non-verbal communication, I felt much more prepared to go in and talk to other business owners.

This book is a great resource for anyone who has been struggling with the anxiety of being able to speak to others, go to social events and stop hiding behind their screens. The author writes with empathy and compassion and focuses on the fact that we need to reframe our negative thoughts into nurturing self-esteem. Having a book like this can help to open up all sorts of doors if you are willing to put yourself out there. Great job by the author for providing this resource to people.

Whether you want to feel more at ease in social settings, improve how you connect with others, or just become a pro at talking in person, this book has you covered. I like that it is full of actionable and practical tips.
