How to Overcome Stage Fright FOREVER

[@cindihill9086]

Man, I should’ve been wearing a heart rate monitor to see how closely mine tracked with yours 😅 I am so proud of you! The fact you put yourself through that shows how much you love us & care for our success! Sending so much love back to you my friend!!

[@amityjoy3732]

SAME!

[@TenorReacts]

One way to get straight into whistle register! Honestly Tara, we love you. This showcases the real intensity of fears. As someone who had a snake once placed around my neck by a “friend” who thought it would be fun to see how I’d react, without even asking, I do understand your reaction. 110% respect, you did better than me that day!

[@RachelSantiago816]

OMG, Tara, you are SOOO AMAZING!!! I was crying watching you the first time. I have a phobia of birds and I KNOW I couldn't do something like this! I have reached a whole new level of respect and admiration towards you! WOW!!!!

[@gabinat]

Tears are running down my face. That was hard for me to watch, I can’t imagine how YOU felt. Good job girl!

[@robinmccoy8979]

Girl!!!! Way to fight your fear and win!!!

[@AndySaenz]

Wow, she did it! She faced her fear of snakes and got through it! Congratulations, Tara!

[@AyaSings]

Honestly, when you mentioned “I feel you” after you noticed it was hard to sing with snakes, i cried because it reminded me of how hard it is for me to speak up my thoughts and feelings 😭i just freeze and shut down 😭 I know this video is for singers or speakers but it hit me! Thank you for sharing this God bless ❤️💜💕

[@Tarasimonstudios]

You’re welcome love! My videos are meant to inspire others in whatever way that may be. I’m so glad this one helped you. Your voice matters & deserves to be heard.

[@AyaSings]

@@Tarasimonstudios thank you ❤️

[@stevendorsey4882]

Tara - That was amazing! I have no fear of snakes, as I have played with them since I was a child. Also, no fear of public speaking as I have done extensive public speaking since I was a child. I once had a fear of heights, which I conquered as a teen by helping my father put roofs on houses and painting houses on tall ladders. So, you are right, facing our fears is the best way to overcome them. You did wonderful singing with snakes, and although I am sure snakes still aren't your favorite animal in the world, now you know that most are gentle creatures. And you sang wonderfully even with an elevated heart rate! Congrats!

[@canonponds9887]

wow I'm scared of heights idk if I could do what you did. Everytime I'm doing heights I get vertigo.

[@mockingbird3099]

@@canonponds9887 Maybe it is not heights per se but the idea of falling from heights that affects you.

[@Kayla_w_l]

Ok, seeing my painting blown up had me 😭🥰 but more importantly: girllll, my heart was racing just watching your heartrate go up, ha but that just proves that this was REAL fear you were singing through... and you did it (🥰 & sounded beautiful)! 🙌🏼 You're a wonder!

[@AndySaenz]

Imagine how scared people get on talent show stages singing in front of large crowds?? That takes a lot of courage! She replicated the same sensation of stage fright many people have experienced with these snakes.

[@CellarStudioProductions]

I love this video. I keep telling my friends that have trouble with speaking/performing in public that it is important to get comfortable with the idea of failing on your first attempt(s) and to come back anyways. Amazing feat of mental strength on your part!

[@livmilesparanormalromanceb6891]

This was amazing! Awesome job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@WelcomeToJ]

I don't know why but this made me cry. I just felt it. Really well done Tara. Well made concept, with the doctor monitoring your heart rate, the coping sign, everything. I think this just hits real for a lot of people for a lot of different things. Don't underestimate how deep this video was.

[@SarrahC]

I see myself in your video with some moment that I go through when auditionning. But I know one thing if you can, I can achieve everything. ❤ you go tara. You made it ❤

[@andreachavez3603]

I felt my throat close up when I had to get on a stage with a ton of people. I thought man I’m never singing again because I couldn’t conquer my fear and get my breathing under control but dang it I tried!! 🤣🙃 You’re an angel Tara and your voice is so beautiful ❤️! Thanks for putting yourself in many singer’s shoes. It’s paralyzing sometimes to be on stage.

[@ivanistvanovic4330]

Proud of you girl! This is the greatest thing ever! So creative and amazing😍

[@mockingbird3099]

When I was a small child of three and my mom was buying clarinets for my brothers at a music shop, I visited a pet shop next door. The proprietor gave a talk to a room full of children, talking to us about how we need not fear the creatures, although caution around venomous types is wise. He held an 8-foot python and invited each and every one of us to approach the beast and pet it, to understand that it is soft and smooth, not sticky or slimy. All but one child overcame any fear of snakes that day. When I was eight, I liked to play with snakes and often would wrap the non-venomous Sonora gopher snakes around my neck when I'd find them around the farm house. Underrated companions. I am glad to have enjoyed a life free of fear of snakes. If only I could sing! I loved the video! Congratulations on your accomplishment!

[@MsMusicStunnaaa]

Proud Of You Tara I Have Stage Fright That Why I Started Doing Covers Also Your Mom Is Fabulous You Guys Are Too Cute & Stay Blessed 💛❤️💙

[@worthfightingfor2299]

Oh. my. goodness. I want to scream just looking at the snakes wrapping around you... ahh! But you did amazing. So YES, super inspiring!!

[@cameron_blokker]

Tara you are absolutely crazy. I almost started crying the first time when you couldn’t do it because I don’t know what I would do if you stopped making KZbin videos. You are my inspiration and because of you I plan on singing for my graduation ceremony 😘

[@GanjaxMan]

Yooo this is Crazy you were singing wit snakes on You? That's very Inspiring and shows us we can all Face out Fears also ! Much Respect Tara ! ✊🏾✊🏾💯💯

[@Anjalena]

Tara you have giant brass balls! My main phobia is spiders and I feel like I would have had a heart attack if there were spiders crawling around on me. I don't know how you got through this and you sang beautifully. You deserve a Legend award for this. 🙇‍♀️🏆

[@alisharose9569]

So so proud of you Tara!!! ❤️❤️

[@Hotfire871]

such an inspiring video! I think every artist knows that certain drive to unhealthy perfection that might paralyze us instead of just letting go. I can totally relate as I am suffering from stage fright and a heavy case of the "imposter syndrome" as a singer for years. being the focus of attention just freaks me out and makes me doubting my own talents even though I am singing since I was a child with overall five years of professional vocal lessons. unfortunately I am still feeling like an amateur as the demons inside of my head are whispering things like "you ain't good enough! people will be disappointed as soon as you start singing cause there are so many even more talented people out there! You are not worthy to be heard by an audience" Its kinda rough and I am trying to not be too hard with myself but its a rocky road for sure! thanks for showing us that its totally worth it to overcome our own fears, Tara! :)

[@andreachavez3603]

I suffer from the same thing and all I can say is don’t give up. Fight it!! I’m sure you sound amazing! ❤️

[@marcytillman25]

Me through the whole video: 😳 lol I think it is important to recognize something very significant that you did that you didn't highlight. You had a plan to overcome your fear, you tried it, but it didn't work. AND THEN YOU TRIED AGAIN. But differently. You acknowledged and learned what didn't work the first time and you took practical steps to overcome. And it DID work. Sometimes we may fail more than just once when trying to overcome fear, struggles, etc. Sometimes we may fail miserably. But that's how we learn, gain empathy, and hopefully discover practical tools to be equipped the next time around. This was awesome.

[@DiogoChris]

Terrified of snakes as well 😩 You're not alone 🐍 I almost cried watching this 😭... I wanted to give you a hug immediately you ran off. And this video is really great. People don't usually understand what someone else may be feeling until they walk in their shoes. And overcoming one's fears in front of others can serve as a great motivation for someone else to try to overcome theirs. Beautiful message. Bless you ❤

[@KGinChrist]

So inspiring. Well done!

[@AndySaenz]

7:00 Her BPM was 152 right there! But she kept singing with 5 snakes on her! Wow, I would have to be running pretty hard on my treadmill to get 152 BPM! She conquered her fears.

[@liaslittlejoy2024]

Tara, you started strong, but even though you failed the first time, you did what I call "learning from mistakes." You faces your fears and showed us the way to be brave! (ps - I love you Tara, but there's no way that I'm going to do that myself....), but that's not the point! We don't have to do that exact same thing just because we watched this video. This video is not about copying, it's about a lesson to face our fears and be brave, which Tara set an example to very well. Thank You for sharing this Tara: this is very inspiring! Who agrees with me??? Is this inspiring or not?

[@leahabraham500]

omg omg omg.... Tara ma'am my respect was u was already on mount Everest but now it just sky rocketed... thank you so much for this demonstration!!!! i will go on that stage and rock it... and i will remember this every single time i get nervous on stage!!!!!

[@mathematix-rodcast]

You go, Tara. That takes a ton for most people, and it is only an exceedingly small group who could attempt such a stunt to prove a point. You indeed proved your point. One other thing to bear in mind, the stage scares people because they care too much about what others think. I do not care what most people think. So, I do not live a life of being scared to do what I want to do. Fear of critique is crippling. Do not allow yourself to be fettered by the mere words of others who mean nothing to you or at least others who should mean nothing to you. Focus on yourself and NOT OTHERS. You cannot live your life for others, nor should you live your life fettered by the chains that others place on you. Anyone who has achieved greatness had haters and/or at least naysayers. They reached their pinnacle of success by focusing on their own pursuits. Be above the influence and do your own thing. Be the next one to attain greatness!

Good for you! Facing your fears is how you get rid of them. You have to face them in small doses building up to the full amount. You did well with just one snake and that is where you should have stopped. Once you get used to that one, then go for more

I had a snake placed around my neck in gator land in Orlando, FL many years ago. I faced my fear of snakes too. I also faced my fear of heights by flying on a hot air balloon! It was such a thrill! I strongly recommend everyone gets on a hot air balloon at least 1 time in their lifetimes.

[@bradsouthers7476]

It would be interesting to baseline your heart rate singing the same song under the same conditions minus the snakes. Singing is emotional to begin with. No doubt that the snakes added a fear factor, but I wonder how much was fear and how much was the emotion of the performance itself.

[@t_elisbeth]

I wonder if you did better because you’ve already tested it out and subconsciously knew you came out alive so the second time around was a bit “easier” I guess same can go with stage fright, you can bomb your first performance but ultimately the more you get on stage, the “easier” it becomes

[@jessakent2049]

Look how cute the tiny one is on your hair bow, though! I have a literal people-phobia, and when trying to explain how I feel when I see five or ten people in a store, I usually liken it to most people with snakes or spiders. It just makes my skin crawl to look at them! Then to have to go IN the store and have them all around me?! WAHGHAGGHL! Ugh. It's the worst. I'm now on disability for my agoraphobia and panic attacks. As long as I stay home and limit it to one or two people I know well, I'm fine.

Successful people should be brave and face their fears one of the things that I did to face my fear of height. I tried bungee jumping it was so scary cuz u have to jump from 65 meters. After that, I felt that I am not the same person anymore and I was more confident.

[@christinapaulthattil1604]

[@azekel7687]

I'm less afraid of snakes and more afraid of Insects and Rodents such as Rats and Mouse, btw, I woke up this morning, went in the kitchen only to see a Mouse lounging on the counter, I lost it and I decided to just go about my day the way I usually do it, while looking out for the Mouse. While I'm not really afraid of snakes, I can say for certain that you are really brave to have faced your fear, I have yet to face my fear of in closed spaces and locked doors.
