Success Stories

“Laurel is an invaluable part of my public speaking development. She gives me simple tools to take my speaking and performance skills to the next level. She’s taught me to make my audience the heroes, to both captivate the room as a storyteller AND guide listeners into action. My speaking is more focused, polished, and actionable because of my work with Laurel.”
"Laurel helped me find clarity in how I present myself and my topics. I was speaking at SXSW 2019 and her coaching took the opportunity from good to dynamic. She knows how to structure information so people will retain it, but also understands the necessity of a good story and compelling presence to make people enjoy a presentation. After working with Laurel I had more confidence in myself as the presenter, and more confidence that the attendees in my session would feel inspired by the topic. Her insight and support were invaluable."
