The coaching taught me what a vital role communication plays in my personal and professional growth. Honestly, I was living at just half my potential. Making a few tweaks in the way I speak has completely changed the way people are looking at me - and it’s changed the way I look at the world.

My biggest pain point was that I couldn’t really speak to a group of more than 8-10 people. Small groups are fine but speaking in public just seemed dreadful. But I think my biggest takeaway from the coaching was learning how to manage my fear of going on the stage. That’s really what made all the difference. Once I learned how to deal with nervous feeling and stomach turns I used to get before going on the stage, that’s when I really started to communicate with more poise and intention.

"In my field of media, it’s all about knowing how to communicate. For the first three years of my career, I thought that as long as was good at what I did from a knowledge perspective, I would get by just fine. But it was only when I combine that knowledge with effectively communicating it - in meeting rooms, client presentations, negotiations - was when it all really took off. I don’t think I would have gotten there without the guidance you get from one-on-one coaching."
