About

banner_about-252x1024I know…

There’s a brilliant speech living inside you.  

There’s a powerful and captivating speaker, too, just waiting to be unleashed.

There are stories of your experiences, expertise, intelligence and wisdom that the world wants and needs to hear.

That given the right guidance and support, you can access unprecedented levels of confidence and power, and make a true difference with your words.

I reckon…

Too many of us women hold ourselves back from shining and are our own worst enemies.

Genuine confidence is incredibly powerful, magnetic, and persuasive.  It’s yours to have and to hold.

You have something to say.  It matters more than you know.  Your voice needs to be heard.  

Being an inspiring speaker opens doors you never even knew existed.

The best gift you can give anyone, including your audience, is to be the true you.  You can only be captivating when your message is congruent with who you truly are.  People want the real deal.  Slick performers are a dying breed – thankfully.

You are amazing.

I know a thing or two about presenting…

After more than 20 years as a professional communicator, I know what it takes to get your message heard.  More importantly, I know exactly what’s required to ensure your audience takes action.

Known first and foremost for my voice, I’ve worked as a prime time TV news presenter, commercial and ABC radio presenter, voice artist, corporate communications adviser and presentation skills trainer, website and magazine writer.

I’m also an executive coach, armed with the tools to help you break through whatever’s holding you back.  I’ve helped hundreds and hundreds of women shift from I’m not good enough to I’m worth it and I’m ready to show up in the world in all my magnificence.

Beyond public speaking courses and techniques that constrict and constrain and take you further away from yourself – and your ability to express yourself powerfully – I’m committed to guiding you to the place within that innately knows how to speak with presence, clarity, ease and freedom.

From there, you have what it takes to:

  • Inspire and fascinate people with your speech
  • Build stronger relationships with clients and customers
  • Skyrocket your credibility, image and brand
  • Persuade and influence stakeholders
  • Unleash your potential in meetings, presentations, interviews and pitches
  • Represent yourself and your company with the utmost professionalism
  • Change people’s minds and make a difference

My clients include change makers, Olympic sports stars, CEOs, CFOs, managing directors, small business owners, facilitators, managers, teachers, radio and TV journalists.

I’m deeply passionate about helping women discover and express their power so they can become inspiring, compelling and dynamic speakers.

And I’m fed up with women holding themselves back, and presentations that are empty, boring and wasted opportunities.

My signature workshop, for just 6 women, is The Powerful Speaking Intensive, and it’s booking now.

My background & credentials

In my media days I worked as a radio and TV news and current affairs presenter, journalist, producer, news director, voice artist, website and magazine writer.  I won a Clear Speech Award for Best Newsreader after just six weeks on air presenting the news on Channel 7.   That made my heart happy.

I’ve worked as a senior corporate communications adviser and presentation skills trainer.  Clients included the state and federal governments, unions, tourism and transport.  My focuses were presentation skills training, media relations, strategic advice and writing.

As a coach, I’ve worked with hundreds and hundreds of women to help them discover more power and confidence in every area of their lives.

I have the following accreditations:
