We all have our reasons for avoiding going live. Maybe it’s a fear of messing up, a dislike of how you look on camera, or even just feeling like you might not have anything important to share.

I know you have plenty to teach your readers/followers and no one seems to worry about their bangs like I do. But know that I go live in spite of my fears and my nit-picky inner critic - and I can show you how to do it too.

It’s not about being perfect, but about showcasing your personality and teaching style. I know that you can do this!
