Maybe you're an entrepreneur who wants to grow a community of like-hearted fans (and know that sharing your ideas is the best way to do that), but you get 'butterflies' at the thought of stepping out front.
Or maybe you´re in a professional position where you are expected to speak at the next board meeting and just dread that it´s getting closer. It destroyed your whole weekend just thinking about it.
Or perhaps you're a CEO or leader who loves numbers, but hesitates to tell the emotive story that makes those numbers meaningful.
Do you have an idea that you want the world to hear... but can't quite wrap your head around the title of 'speaker'?
I'm a passionate 55+ woman, mother and a nature lover living in Sweden and Spain, with a 30+ years career as an organizational and leadership consultant. I have spent my career in a business context as a trainer and helping CEOs and management teams develop and implement visions and strategies, communicate and lead their business. This means I have lived my professional life "on stage" in front of others.
The pivot of the pandemic made me explore something I am really passionate about - to help professional women step into their full potential and to use presentation skills to thrive in their careers.
I don't believe in formulas. There are a million ways to approach speaking and once you find the best approach for you, speaking can begin to feel less terrifying and more exciting.
I also don't believe in perfection. The things you think make you seem 'unpolished' or 'uninteresting' are often the very aspects of your personality people find truly refreshing and fun.
I know—you want to cover your fears, self-doubts, and mistakes and get yourself pitch perfect. I totally get it.
When we're on stage or in front of a room, what comes out of our mouths feels like it carries the weight of the world. Like it has the potential to make or break our credibility.
Clients have used me to:
To some extent, I can. (I'm really good.)
We practice and build their skills—which expands their confidence.
But then I tell them something surprising:
I don't want you to be perfect.
And here's why...
"Perfect" speaking skills don't really matter. What does? The ability to truly connect with your audience.
