Michaela Kettner is a coach and a public speaker. When she started her career, Michaela was a very shy person, who studied physics and struggled with many insecurities. During the pandemic she educated herself further in psychology, communication, public speaking and Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), which has not only helped her to overcome many of her own limiting beliefs but also has brought her career to the next level. As Michaela sees many skillful people struggling to present themselves successfully, today she supports them with coaching and with her own podcast “Spotlight your TRUE self.” 
Self-Present Yourself with Confidence
Michaela believes that the main reason many people fail to present themselves properly in professional situations is their own limiting beliefs.
In order to self-present yourself with confidence, Michaela recommends to pay attention to three pillars:

* Build a stable self-confidence, become aware of your superpowers.
* Learn to manage your emotions, as there will always be bad moments to recover from.
* Build concrete communication techniques based on Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), which helps you keep a conversation going and make people more interested about you.
