Biggest Advantages of live coaching

• Individualized coaching, specific to your most pressing needs. 

• It's a bit painful, but you can watch yourself transform as a speaker in a couple of hours. 

• Intensive focus always produces results, that's why we pack it into a tight timeframe for maximum change.

• Increased freedom to become yourself, instead of that robot you've been acting like in other pitches. 

• The confidence that you have put in the hard work and you know your pitch is solid. When we pitch it's all about confidence, it's contagious. 

Intentional Focus

REMOVING DISTRACTIONS

We start with the obvious things. What things do YOU see when you watch yourself on video? It's really amazing how our subconscious takes over and shows our nervousness. Part of pitching is being open with yourself to change. That's why we both look at the videos and find things we don't like. 

• Why do you do that with your hands or your lips?

• Let's get rid of those "ums" "ahs" and filer words.

• Secrets to reducing your nervousness.

There really are simple ways to fix these distractions, the first step is to notice them. That's what we are after when we work together and every coaching session is recorded. It's not uncommon to record and review 5 pitches in one session. The cool thing is you get to see your progress and walk away with an action plan to improve.
