My mission is to transform people from “tongue-tied” to “TERRIFIC” leaving them feeling ultimately triumphant.
Public speaking skills are valuable both in your personal life and in your career. Even if you don’t regularly engage in public speaking, developing skills in this area will increase your confidence and reduce anxiety about situations in which you may be called upon to speak in public.
As the “tongue-tied and too terrified to talk in public” expert I’ve worked with 1,000’s of professionals who needed help to overcome their fear of speaking in public, drawing on my theatrical background together with my professional coaching skills.
I’ve coached famous actors through stage fright and performance fears, releasing their innate natural ability to connect and communicate with their audiences at the most authentic and profound levels.
And for the last 7 years I’ve been working with CEO’s, Executives and the young leaders of tomorrow, using those same theatre based skills to create cutting–edge cultural change in the corporate world.
As a young girl I was encouraged to express myself and get my message across by my childhood mentor Nelson Mandela. He taught me the importance of getting that message across with authenticity.
For 25 years I worked in show business, primarily helping people deal with stage fright and learning to be comfortable in front of an audience.
I know how the anxiety of public speaking paralyses some people with fear to the point where they cannot even think of getting their message across, but the problem is there ARE times when they simply have to – be it a wedding speech or speaking in a professional context.
This is where I can help.
I offer one to one coaching and workshops to companies and individuals, using theatre skills to break through fear so that you can express yourself in an energetic, exciting and empowering manner when speaking in front of an audience.
My mission is to transform people from “tongue-tied” to “TERRIFIC” leaving them feeling ultimately triumphant.

Testimonials
Life cannot be measured by counting the number of breaths we take but instead by counting the number of breath-taking moments we’ve had. This course on high impact leadership was on such refreshing and breath-taking moments!
I found the theatrical approach very valuable and different from every other course I’ve taken. We covered a variety of topics from storytelling, listening and improvisation to voice, breathing and body language. Mark Rittenberg is phenomenal. The safe environment created in the room helped push everyone out of their comfort zones and experiment with new things. It was truly a laboratory rather than a class
“Uplifting, demanding and fulfilling would best describe this program”
This program is not for the weak-hearted…if you are ready to first learn about yourself, then leverage it to understand about and communicate with others, then this course is perfect to enhance your career path
