I (an introverted graphic designer) faced my fear of public speaking

[@maxwell2059]

THIS IS SO REAL! I've been struggling so much with anxiety at university. A big part of the graphic design course is showcasing work and telling people about it, and although I consider myself a fairly outgoing person, something about people watching me while I speak just makes me so anxious. Well done for facing your fears. You make me feel as though I can face my own so thank you :)

[@edgykatrina]

thank you!!!!! you can definitely face your fears 🥰🥰🥰

[@itsjeanyu]

Congratulations!! So happy for you! Fellow introvert here 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Officialbombaysapphire]

I love that you keep you videos under 10q15 minutes with content fully compacted. it really made me realize I already watched about 6 of your videos back to back because of that, happy to be engaging in fellow graphic designers and aspire to be on your level in the next few months with consistency, wish we could be friends omg!

[@edgykatrina]

thank you so much!!! I try to keep my videos engaging haha

[@revelandrage]

couldn't help but clap and cheer for you when your wrapped up your panel! as a fellow introvert who is so scared of public speaking, i know that bone-shaking fear that comes with getting up on stage and having everyone's attention on you. you're so inspirational for conquering your fears and i'm glad you took the chance to show everyone who you are. you and your work deserve the recognition and appreciation! you're amazing!

[@edgykatrina]

thank you so much this makes my whole day!!!

[@thisisharan]

I'm 24, an introvert, self-learning graphic design for 2 years, currently doing personal projects to build my portfolio. And, after seeing this video it kinda felt like I'm seeing my future self. It resonates with me very well. Really inspiring and I'm in awe of you Katrina, that you made this far! I bet I'm gonna make it too, XO ❤

[@LondonGal73]

You’re awesome!! Well done 🎉

[@kalina_kathy]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO. So inspiring and the imposter syndrome is REAL! Public speaking is one of those things where you just have to do it to overcome it. I'm so proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone. And Chicago is so beautiful. I'd love to visit one day :)

[@edgykatrina]

Thank you so much!!!!! you are 100% right you just have to dive first into it

[@Trishala005]

This is so me , as a person with social anxiety i have made my mindset I can never become successful in designing due to amount of conversation one has to make 😢

[@edgykatrina]
