The Comfortable Public Speaker: Unlocking Your Inner Storyteller

​The Comfortable Public Speaker is an interactive workshop designed to turn anxiety into excitement, and unlock the natural public speaker and storyteller within us all.

​It’s a fast paced, fun, one-hour session blending improv and storytelling techniques with time-tested public speaking principals.  Each participant takes the stage 2-3 times for short, impromptu speeches while receiving tactical tips and feedback.  

​Regardless of age or level of public experience you’ll walk away a more comfortable and empowered speaker with the tools to craft compelling stories at will.
