COMMUNICATE YOUR VALUES, MISSION + MESSAGE 

in the media • on camera • on stage • on social media

CEOs • Executives • Thought Leaders

In today's world you need to be ready to communicate your message in seconds—not minutes to capture attention + gain market share. I work privately during PR coaching with top business leaders to help them lose the fear + the fake so they communicate powerfully + naturally in any type of presentation or media interview. Typically, they multiply their revenue + expand their brand in short order.

Entrepreneurs • Authors •  Influencers

Launching a business, book, product, service or cause? Afraid you’ll do or say the wrong thing that will ruin your business or brand? I’ll guide you through worst-case scenarios + prickly personalities. With my PR coaching you’ll discover how to deeply tune in to your values + engage your perfect audience on a profound level. The result? Clients, customers, connections, sponsors + partnerships.

Imposter Syndrome • Crisis of Confidence

Your friends + family think you have it all. Your colleagues + boss praise your leadership qualities + count on you to close the deal. The only problem is you feel like a fraud—though your experience tells you otherwise. You might be surprised how common this is, even among the smartest, most accomplished + most articulate women. My method shifts women into their natural command presence so they let go of imposter syndrome.

Start ups • Founders

When pitching investors start-ups often get tripped up by their personality trigger points + difficult or challenging investor questions—so they miss their chance to get funded. Pitch deck presentation coaching often excludes expanding a founder's natural charisma. During my proprietary PR coaching I focus on their leadership presence, delivering their pitch deck with confidence, ease + grace so they get funded from seed to series C + start or scale their business.
