What is the feedback from past participants of this course?

“One of my insights from the course is that pausing is powerful and not a sign of weakness. Sarah is a wonderful teacher, very professional and I learnt something new from her in every class”

Suzanne - Speaking with Confidence course participant

“Three things I got from the course and will apply from now on are: 1) Taking the time to pause and to enjoy the space to think, 2) Using affirmation to fire oneself from within, and 3) Eye contact while talking and to get comfortable while doing so”

Michael - Speaking with Confidence course participant

“The course gave me more to consider than just to speak with confidence. It highlighted strengths that I was disregarding. Sarah helped us to acknowledge that we all have a right to speak and our voice is as important as the next person’s”

Amanda - Speaking with Confidence course participant

“One of my greatest learnings from the course was understanding that confidence is a skill I can build and learning to speak in public is a process”
