March: Conquer your Public Speaking Fear, Step-by-Step
Fear, nerves, anxiety. This is an energy that keeps us from saying YES to public speaking opportunities and showing up as your best self. Unpack the root of your fear. Learn a step by step approach to reduce your public speaking anxiety before it begins SO THAT you can sleep the week before a presentation and say YES to your next career move.
Learn techniques to channel your nerves while your speaking and presenting so that they undermine your authority (aka how to get your voice to stop shaking). These techniques will move you to the next level.
April: Build your Authentic Confidence
We know that confidence plays a role in our success. A study done in 2015 found that overconfident individuals were more likely to attain status and influence. Most of us want to be more confident. The salient question here is, “How? How does one get more confidence?”
In this skill session I’ll teach you techniques to build your confidence with a step by step approach. You will learn the components of confidence. How to build your specific confidence. And how to continue to build your confidence over time.
May: Step into your Executive Presence
Building executive presence isn’t for wimps. It takes commitment. Learn what it is and how to do it.
In this session we breakdown the rubric of executive presence. We understand the do’s and don’ts. We look at what your special form of executive presence might look like. Best if you’ve watched previous sessions in order to “bring it all together” to uplevel your executive presence.
Sessions to look forward to…
Change your mindset and change your relationship to public speaking.
The first block to gaining facility with public speaking is often your mind. What are you telling yourself about yourself? What are you telling yourself about your audience? Uncovering, labeling, and throwing the mindset into the incinerator is what this session is all about. Unveiling the habits you’re committed to that are currently not serving you, will help you to get unstuck and create space for new patterns. Special guest: Positive intelligence coach Kasia
In-person presentation coming up? How to use your body language to command the room.

This class will teach you the tools and techniques and give you an opportunity to try it out for yourself. Wondering what to do with your body during a presentation? You will learn how to make intentional choices with your body language for the purpose of (specifically) in-person presentations.
