In a world where people are increasingly craving genuine connections and transparency, speaking authentically has become more important than ever…

Breathing is a vital aspect of our daily lives, and it plays an important role in the way we speak. Proper breathing techniques can help to improve our speaking abilities, making it easier to articulate and communicate effectively.

Death by PowerPoint is a term used to describe a phenomenon that occurs in many meetings, lectures, and presentations. It refers to the feeling of boredom, frustration, and disengagement that can be experienced by audience members when they are subjected to a poorly designed or executed PowerPoint presentation.

Confidence is an essential element when it comes to speaking, whether it is in front of a large audience or just a few people. It is the key to delivering a message effectively and persuasively.

You might feel your own world doesn't have clarity, that you are spinning too many plates, that you're not fulfilling your potential, that you're not where you want to be. Often when you're feeling like that, you think that reaching out to get help is the wrong thing to do.

Training and coaching public speakers isn’t a one size fits all thing. You can't simply teach somebody speaking skills and send them out to be a great speaker. It won't happen…

People are being limited by their negative mindsets, and I think that’s just not fair…

Such a wonderful weekend at Impact! I got to meet this amazing human and so many wonderful people from with The Professional Speaking Association

In my work as a speaking consultant and coach, I meet so many people who, like me, need quiet time alone and are happy to let the extroverts take the focus. Sadly, they labour under the myth that being an introvert must automatically make them a poor candidate for public speaking and leadership. These people wrongly label themselves as shy or lacking in confidence when, in reality, they simply prefer quiet contemplation over being centre of attention. I quickly dispel the myth and help my clients appreciate that they have a valuable and compelling voice which many of us want to hear when they choose to speak; this leads to powerful life and career changing results.

How coaching helps create invincible women!

On International Women’s Day, I collaborated with Emma Rollason-Taylor to partner with York and North Yorkshire Growth Hub and York St John University Enterprise Centre to host the Embrace Equity Event.

International women’s day might have been and gone, but the events I organised for the week have left a last impression on myself and my business.
