Hello!

I'M AMANDA

​You can experience public speaking as

an adventure with exciting risks, discoveries, and massive rewards... rather than as a horror movie with terror, hiding, and dread.

 

Through one-on-one coaching and customized corporate workshops, I help experts struggling with self-doubt to speak with power, personality, and ease so they can increase their impact and spark positive change. (Goodbye boring slides & sleepless nights!) 

​

​Got an important presentation, video, pitch, speech,  or interview coming up?

 

Does your team need to up their game to move your company's mission forward?
