You've tried the tips. You've practised in the mirror. You've told yourself to "just be confident." Yet when it's time to speak, in a meeting, at a presentation, during a pitch, that familiar dread still rises.
Your heart races. Your mind blanks. Your voice wavers.
Here's what most people don't realise: glossophobia isn't a skill problem. It's a mindset problem.
And until you understand which specific psychological barrier is holding you back, no amount of technique training will set you free.
That's exactly what the Breaking the Silence Quadrant Assessment does.

Where you currently are on your speaking confidence journey (across two critical
dimensions: willingness to reflect and willingness to work)
Why you feel the way you do when it's time to speak up

"For 20 years, I've watched brilliant professionals stay silent in rooms where their voices desperately needed to be heard. Not because they lacked expertise. Not because they couldn't articulate their ideas. But because they didn't understand the psychological pattern keeping them stuck."
- Anthea Armar, Founder, Amarkai Ltd
Anthea has worked with organisations including Network Rail, Google and Ernst & Young, but there are still thousands of people waiting to overcome the fear that traditional presentation skills training never addresses.
Are you one of them?
The Breaking the Silence Quadrant Assessment isn't just another personality test. It's a diagnostic tool built on research on glossophobia-specific work, identifying exactly where your transformation needs to begin.

Frequently Asked Questions
The assessment itself takes approximately 10 minutes and you will immediately see your result upon completion.
No. The BTS Quadrant Assessment is specifically designed for glossophobia. It measures two critical dimensions, your willingness to reflect on your fears and your willingness to do the work, to identify which of four quadrants you're currently in. This determines your most effective transformation pathway.
The assessment provides results as accurate as possible based on your responses. However, because each individual has a unique root cause of their public speaking fear, there may be nuances in your situation. The most comprehensive understanding comes through 1-2-1 coaching, where all conversations are tailored to your specific experience.
Your result includes clear next steps based on your quadrant. This might be attending our Breaking the Silence Taster Workshop, booking a discovery call or exploring specific phases of our other offerings. You're never left wondering "what now?"
Yes, but only to receive valuable insights about overcoming glossophobia. We respect your inbox. You can unsubscribe at any time, though most people find the content genuinely helpful for their journey.
The first step to transformation is clarity.
