Everyone is impressive
until the room turns.
Speak twice. Once calm, once challenged. Find out exactly what happens to you in the ninety seconds after someone pushes back.
You will speak twice. The second time will not be comfortable. That is the point.

Who is taking the test.
Your read is written for your seat and the room you actually walk into, so none of this is admin. It is what makes the result yours rather than generic. Every field is needed.
Your full read is sent here, and it is where your baseline is kept for the second reading.
Write this one properly. It is the part that shapes what you are told at the end.
Four minutes from here. You will speak twice.
Your voice is read here, in your browser.
The audio is never uploaded and it is never recorded. Your voice is turned into numbers as you speak, and the numbers are all that is ever kept.
Find somewhere you can speak out loud for two minutes. Headphones are better than speakers.
Works best in Chrome or Edge, where your browser can also read the words. In other browsers the test runs on your voice alone, and we will say so.
What room are you walking into soon?
This decides who interrupts you, and how.
Tell me what you actually do, and who you do it for.
Talk like you are telling a friend. Nobody is judging this one. It is only here so we know what you sound like when you are fine.
Now the room changes.
Same subject. Say it again, to the board. You have forty seconds and they can see the clock.
Someone in that room is going to interrupt you. You will not know when. Keep going when they do.
Finding the second it changed.
Pace, second by second
That is not a confidence problem. It is a threat response, and it happens faster than thinking.
Where your pauses went
Everyone has one. Knowing which one is yours is the whole of the first step.
Calm, and under pressure.
What this means
One thing to practise
Your cue
We just put your system under load on purpose. Take sixty seconds before you go back to your day.
It cannot tell you whether it is getting better.
That takes a second reading, and a second reading needs time between it and the first. A nervous system does not change in a day.
Your second reading opens in seven days. Free, and no card.
You are already on the list. We have your baseline and your read is in your inbox, so there is nothing else to do until then.
Or open it today
Send this to one person who would recognise themselves in it, and you both get your second reading now.
You know your tell.
Knowing it changes nothing
on Tuesday at nine.
This test is the diagnosis. Mara is the training. She puts you in the exact room you are dreading, interrupts you the way they will, and makes you do it again until the pause comes back.
