Public Speaking - how I can help you

Here's a secret: public speaking isn't actually about you. It's about the people you're talking to. The moment you shift your focus to them, everything changes.

Public speaking is any scenario where you have to speak in front of others and you sense there are stakes. It could be a team meeting, a presentation, or a keynote. It could be an important interview or a moment where you need to communicate with real impact. Online presenting brings its own challenges too, and requires a different set of skills from face to face delivery.

I work with professionals across all of these scenarios: public speaking, impact communication and interview technique.

Problems I solve...

Public Speaking Issues

Does the idea of standing in front of others make your heart beat faster? Do you get nervous just introducing yourself at a new meeting?
Hands shaking, papers rattling, going red, mind going blank?
You know you should practise, but either there's no time, or you worry you'll sound over-rehearsed.
Not a natural speaker, but sometimes you just have to do it?

Interview Technique

You've walked out of an interview knowing you said too much, and forgot the one point you actually needed to make.
You freeze under questioning, even when you know the answer.
You want to sound prepared, not rehearsed.
You're going for a role where how you come across matters as much as what you know.

Exhausting, isn't it.

What you need to know

Most of us were never taught how to speak in public. We were just expected to get on with it, which meant we often made it harder for ourselves than it needed to be.

That's exactly where I come in. Public speaking has tried and tested methods behind it. Holding attention, staying calm under pressure, being clear when the stakes are high: these are learnable skills, not personality traits. And yes, it can even be fun. That's what we explore together.

My 1:1 coaching programme, Personal Voice Mastery, is tailored entirely around your needs, your goals and your presenting scenario. There is no one-size-fits-all approach here.

I was lucky enough to work with Cath this year, and I can honestly say it was the best training I've had. Cath's insight and expertise really shone through. Basically, she's brilliant!

Cath has helped me to speak in an engaging and impactful way, to answer questions more clearly and concisely, and to manage performance anxiety in preparation for high stakes presentations. What Cath teaches are invaluable life lessons in consciously speaking that I am sure will continue to benefit me for decades.
