She Has a Voice: Speaking Skills to Empower Women
Ever catch yourself shrinking back, saying “maybe,” “just,” or “I guess” when you mean “unequivocally yes”?
Perhaps the opposite is true. You activate your inner villain, ready to speak without interruption or die trying.
You’re not alone.
Actually, I'll level with you: I've been there, too.
You want to make a great impression, speak with clarity, and present with poise, but such efforts often meet the roadblock of cultural conditioning and personal fears. We shrink our posture, our language, and how we frame our conversations and presentations, accommodating others or ensuring you could never be perceived as assertive.
Confident? Absolutely. Just not out loud.
Or, you get big and loud. You're speaking, but you're also deep in your flight-or-fight core, ready for anything. Your point might be getting lost, but woe betide anyone with a follow-up question. You were QUITE CLEAR.
Neither are effective. Neither are the real you.
You have an authentic voice.
In this lively and empowering workshop, I aim to help women seeking a bold and confident approach to their professional and personal lives.
Let's learn together how to confidently stand taller, speak bolder, and embrace your voice.
Together, we’ll practice fun, embodied and skillful communication tools to help you speak up and take up space with confidence and ease, whether you’re pitching an idea, making a sale, or simply telling your story.
Your voice is one of your most powerful tools — let’s make sure it shines as big and bold as you are in your most authentic way. If you’re ready to show up fully, speak with purpose, and live into the success you deserve, join me for She Has a Voice.
