Elevate Your Speaking Skills: A 12-Week Group Coaching Programme for women
Once I understood what was really driving my nerves and challenged the beliefs holding me back things began to change. I also realised that public speaking isn't the same experience for women. We are more likely to worry about being judged, interrupted, dismissed or labelled for speaking in ways that are often accepted in men. That's why this programme is designed specifically for women.
The Turning Point
There was a time when even speaking in a meeting filled me with dread. My heart would race, my voice would shake and I'd spend days worrying about having to speak. I held myself back, avoided opportunities and stayed safely within my comfort zone. I told myself I was happy where I was! It wasn't my ability that was holding me back – it was fear.
I've been where you are -overwhelmed, frustrated, and missing out on opportunities.
You're not alone
Designed for women who want to overcome speaking nerves and become stronger speakers, this programme combines expert guidance, practical exercises and group coaching. You’ll have the opportunity to share experiences, receive feedback and learn from others who understand the challenges of speaking up.
Inspiring work providing outstanding support, mentoring and coaching.
That's because many programmes teach presentation skills without addressing the challenges many women face, such as fear of judgement, perfectionism, confidence and being interrupted or questioned differently in the workplace. This programme combines practical speaking skills with an understanding of what is really holding you back, so you can make lasting progress.
You may have tried public speaking courses before but you're still nervous
It's time for change
If you found yourself nodding along to any of these questions, trust me, you're exactly where you need to be.
Do you feel anxious or overwhelmed at the thought of speaking in front of others?
Do you avoid opportunities because speaking up feels overwhelming?
Do you watch others get promoted or move to new roles and wonder, "When is it going to be my turn?"
Do you stay quiet in meetings, even when you have something valuable to say?

I know a number of women who have grown in their confidence because of your coaching and support. I would encourage women to book now.
What an amazing programme you have created.
Common Questions
Yes, absolutely. It's specifically designed for women who feel nervous about public speaking and want support to overcome those fears. Sessions are designed to help you understand your nerves and build confidence in your speaking, wherever you're currently at.
Is This Programme Suitable For people who are nervous?
This programme is for women who feel nervous, anxious or overwhelmed when they need to speak. Whether you avoid presentations, worry about speaking in meetings or find yourself overthinking every word, this programme will help you build the skills to move forward.
how do i know if this is the right programme for me?
This programme is designed to help you develop your speaking skills in a supportive and encouraging environment. You’ll have opportunities to practise, but there is no expectation to suddenly present in front of the group. We’ll start where you are, build your confidence gradually.
Will I have to speak in front of everyone?
Alongside the weekly sessions, you'll need time to practice the skills you’re developing. Public speaking improves through practice, so we encourage you to try the techniques, reflect on your progress and look for opportunities to apply what you’ve learned from sessions.
How much time do I need to commit outside the sessions?
Yes. I'm confident in the programme and so happy to offer a 14-day money-back guarantee to give you a risk-free investment. If you dive in and realise within the first 14 days that the programme isn't aligning with your needs and goals, then I'll refund you, no questions asked.
Can I Get A Refund If I Find it Isn't Right For Me?
All sessions are delivered online via Zoom. You can access the sessions on a laptop, tablet or even your phone. Please download the Zoom app before the programme begins and check your camera, microphone and internet connection in advance.
Are The Sessions Conducted In-Person Or Online?
1:1 coaching offers targeted support tailored to your individual needs. Group workshops, on the other hand, provides a community setting where you will learn course material but there will still be opportunity to share your own insights with others. The approach and environment differ.
What's the difference between group and 1:1 coaching?
All sessions will be recorded, so you’ll be able to catch up if you’re unable to attend live. However, you’ll miss out on the live coaching, group discussions and opportunities to practise with the other participants, so attending the sessions wherever possible is recommended.
what if i miss one of the weekly live sessions?
