About the workshop

Who doesn’t dread those workshop and presentation mistakes? How do we overcome our fear of them? You may have heard that “Perfection is the enemy of success,” and similar sayings, but how do you get over perfectionism? 

If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by perfectionism, or fear of making mistakes when presenting, come to this workshop with Melissa Dinwiddie! You’ll get to try out some tools that might just help you loosen up, AND you’ll learn some activities you can use in your own sessions, to help participants:

  • Deal with change
  • Deal with confusion
  • Not worry so much about mistakes
