How to Get Comfortable on Camera (Even If You Hate Being on Camera)

You’re amazing in real life.
So why do you freeze the second the red light comes on?

You’re not alone if you’ve ever said:

• “I don’t know what to do with my hands.”
• “I sound weird.”
• “I feel like a total weirdo just talking to my phone.”

You’re not broken. You’re human.

Talking to a lens is weird—until it isn’t.

Here’s the truth: Being comfortable on camera isn’t natural.
It’s a skill—and anyone can learn it.

What you’re feeling is not a personality flaw.
It’s unfamiliarity. It’s visibility nerves. It’s fear of judgment.

Here’s the great news:
You don’t need to “get over it.” You just need to work with it.

I’ve helped everyone from TV pros to brand-new entrepreneurs get more comfortable in front of the camera. The key? Start simple and stop overthinking.

Try these:

• Record yourself doing something normal. Pour coffee. Type. Walk your dog. No talking. Just presence. It’s called B-roll and it builds comfort fast.
• Use “voice memo” energy. Talk like you're sending a note to a friend, not addressing 10,000 people.
• Plan your first line. That’s it. The rest can be natural. Over-prepping leads to robotic delivery.
• Watch back without judgment. You’re not critiquing your face. You’re learning what works.
• Reframe your thinking. You’re not “creating content.” You’re simply documenting your life, your lessons, your magic. Think of it as capturing moments instead of crafting performances.

You’re not here to perform. You’re here to connect. That changes everything.

This isn’t about tips or tricks.
It’s about identity.

You’re not just trying to get better on camera—you’re becoming someone who belongs there.

The version of you who shows up with clarity...
Who doesn’t shrink or second-guess…
Who presses record and trusts what comes out?

That version already exists.

They’re not miles away.
They’re not hiding behind a ring light or some “someday confidence.”

They’re right here—waiting for you to stop overthinking... and start showing up.

This isn’t about performing.
It’s about finally being seen—for real.

And that’s exactly what your audience is craving.
