Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. David Fish—performance anxiety specialist, founder of Rise Up Eight, creator of the READ Method, author, and mindfulness expert.
Dr. Fish helps professionals who excel in their careers but struggle when speaking in front of others. Whether it's a keynote presentation, team meeting, virtual conference, job interview, or high-stakes pitch, his innovative approach helps people transform anxiety into authentic confidence. Rather than fighting nervousness, his READ Method teaches individuals how to work skillfully with it, drawing on mindfulness practices rooted in his years of Zen training.
What makes Dr. Fish's story especially compelling is the origin of his work. Through dedicated Zen practice, he independently developed an approach to performance anxiety that later paralleled the teachings of Jon Kabat-Zinn, who also studied under Korean Zen Master Seung Sahn before bringing mindfulness into mainstream medicine. That shared lineage became the foundation for Dr. Fish's practical system for helping professionals communicate with greater clarity, presence, and confidence.
In this inspiring conversation, we explore performance anxiety, public speaking, executive leadership, mindfulness, confidence, communication, emotional resilience, Zen philosophy, and the practical techniques that have helped countless professionals unlock their full potential.
If you're interested in public speaking, executive coaching, leadership development, mindfulness, overcoming fear, communication skills, personal growth, career success, and mental performance, this episode is packed with actionable insights.
