"I think what you shared was really helpful and an interesting take on something that's really important to us all right now, having great virtual meetings. I have a big meeting with a VP tomorrow and I'll be looking to employ a lot of what you said to help get my own emotions out there and prompt him to do the same."

Your goal: To always be communicating with the three C's:

My goal: For you to be speaking to eager, engaged listeners who are anxious to hear what you have to say, whether you are in the virtual world or in person.
Everyone struggles with different pain points: anxiety, pressure of being perfect, freezing, rambling, fear of being boring, and so on.. Through my work as an actress, I understand 'stage fright'. I have developed and honed skills that I teach in my workshops and one-on-on coaching sessions that tackle these challenges, I tailor them to you or your team's needs.
