Public speaking is feared more than death. We spend so much time preparing WHAT we are going to say that we fail to focus on the HOW. What does it take to make wooing a crowd look easy? And even if you don’t fear public speaking – are you good at it, or have you had an audience look through you?
Public speaking used to be accepted as a difficult skill possessed by and necessary for only a select few professions. All that has quickly changed over the past decade. TED Talks, once an exclusive closed room conference has become mainstream and watched by millions. Today, whatever your profession, the ability to stand in front of an audience and express your ideas and accomplishments, is not just admired but expected.
In this class, you’ll learn basic presentation skills essential to being a more interesting, present and focused speaker. We’ll practice activities and learn warm-ups that will not only build confidence but address that fear of public speaking and begin to teach the skills necessary to become an engaging speaker.
Students also have the option (not required!) to send a 90 second to 2-minute presentation they are working on for feedback.
This class comes with a 30-minute one-on-one virtual coaching session that can be used for any aspect of your professional communication development.
Access will be delivered to the email you use to register, and your 30-minute one-on-one coaching session must be used by March 30, 2021. You will have unlimited access to the class and materials.

Looking for your voice? Start to find it with us. We tend to find ourselves overthinking and trapped in our heads, focusing in on how we ‘should’ sound, what a strong communicator looks like, what answer would be perceived as the best one.
And the best one often is, be you.
In this class, we’ll take improv-based and public speaking activities to the next level and apply them to communication – whether that’s interpersonal impromptu communication, a conference session or meeting, or a networking event. We’ll encourage and help you to find your authentic communication and speaking style, stretching your muscles to increase flexibility, positive risk-taking and self-awareness, heightening our personal confidence. You’ll have a better idea of the reflection you’ll need to do to grow a greater understanding of your communication style, strengths, and areas for growth, as well as a catalyst to begin that development.
This class comes with a 30-minute one-on-one virtual coaching session that can be used for any aspect of your professional communication development.

Storytelling has been a buzzword in business, sales and marketing for a few years – what makes a story a good story though? Whether you are telling one in the meeting room or the bar with friends, engaging stories are impossible to ignore, and boring, drawn out and highly detailed stories are exhausting.
A good story should come in a package – there needs to be a hook, drawing your audience in, a point – it can’t ramble into the abyss! – and there needs to be a solid ending – it doesn’t have to be a happily ever after, it does need to end. This class will focus in on the basics of good storytelling, with an emphasis on telling stories in a confident and engaging manner and constructing stories in a clear and concise way that can be edited for any audience.
Students will learn tips to craft effective stories for personal and professional environments and can submit a personal or professional story for feedback. This class comes with a 30-minute one-on-one virtual coaching session that can be used for any aspect of your professional communication development.
Access will be delivered to the email you use to register, and your 30-minute one-on-one coaching session must be used by March 30, 2021. You will have unlimited access to the class and materials.

Expressing yourself, your wants, and your emotions with regard to others. Saying no. Setting boundaries. Giving someone feedback. Checking in and regulating yourself and your emotions.
Assertive communication is the most desired communication style: how do you build this when you find yourself playing small in relationships, career, and personal matters? Maybe you realize that you’ve been more passive than you like, and you’d like to make an intentional choice to be assertive. You try to say no and realize it’s way too much – EEK! Pull it back, hide in that comfort zone, and feel like you’re getting walked over.
No more.
From body language, eliminating “weak” language, saying no, and checking in – and expressing! – wants and feelings, we’ll start to build assertive communication skills and techniques that keep you learning and away from the panic zone of progress. There will be several activities, prompts, and ideas that you can work on immediately to sharpen your assertive communication skills, as well as longer-term ideas and concepts to continue practicing.
Access will be delivered within 48 hours of registration to the email you use to register, and your 30-minute one-on-one coaching session must be used by March 30, 2021. You will have unlimited access to the class and materials.

Join founder Jen Brown for a crash course in improving your small talk skills with Strengthen Your Small Talk, a new program for folks looking to level up those interpersonal moments that are usually filled with dread. Start getting excited about small talk – and feeling like you’re connecting in a real way.
How many times have you gotten ready to go to a networking event only to get there and spend all your time by the snacks, avoiding people?
Or how about showing up at the company party or breakfast and you’re suddenly hit with nothing to talk about?
Or the worst: you have goals and things to talk about, but you don’t know how to get in or out of a single conversation. HALP!
Don’t worry if this sounds just like you, you’ve landed in the right place.
You are so close to being a small talk success: not in the used car salesman kind of way, but in the authentic to you kind of way!
Introducing Strengthen Your Small Talk: A 4-session self-guided online program to help you excel in every day impromptu interpersonal communication.
Session 1: You’ll tap into your personal small talk style and start to build skills like active listening and thoughtful responding
Session 2: We’ll start tapping into your audience, thinking about what they want from you and what you want from them – and how to make it work for both of you.
Session 3: Ever get stuck or trapped in a conversation, or had so much to offer but no way into the conversation? We’ll work on entrances and exits.
Session 4: Conversation topics! Let’s create a list of great topics that work for you as well as topics you should avoid. We’ll give you some of our favorites and a template to brainstorm more.
Each session concludes with optional video homework you can turn in for individualized feedback from Jen.
