Speaking confidence for you and your teams
Welcome to Speaking Without Freaking® - practical workshops built to help you speak with confidence, whether that's alongside your team or on your own.
Some people want to build confidence with a group, working through the same nerves and challenges together.
Some want to work through it focused on their own business and their own goals.
Either way, it's hands on and built around situations you'll actually face, not hypothetical ones.
You’ll spend the workshop in the company of other people in the same situation, you’ll have a chance to speak and be coached and also leave with my speaking framework.
Individual
Speaking Without Freaking® for individuals is built around running your own business, and speaking about it.
Whether that's a sixty second pitch, showing up confidently on video, or just being able to talk about what you do without freaking out.
These workshops are practical, focused, and built around your speaking needs.
Corporate
Speaking Without Freaking® for teams brings your people together to build presentation confidence as a group.
Whether it's a one-off session or something more regular, we work on the skills your team needs to speak up, present well, and feel less nervous doing it.
Good for teams who present internally, pitch to clients, or just want to communicate better under pressure.
“On the day, it was a small, friendly group, and everyone was there for different reasons - some personal, some business. Dave’s style was relaxed, thoughtful, and encouraging as he took us through his talk planning framework and we did practical exercises around storytelling. Then we each worked on and delivered a 2-minute talk in the afternoon.
What I came away with: genuine hope that I can do this, with a clear framework to follow, and a practice guide that gives me something concrete to work with. I now have a process for planning short talks about my book topics.”
“We had such a fantastic training day with Dave the coach. He took the time to understand what we needed as a team, helped us uncover the real stories behind Primrose’s impact, and guided us in building a framework for storytelling which we can now use at events, talks and throughout our marketing.
The workshop was really engaging and we all came away feeling like we’d gained so much from the session. I would highly recommend Dave for any guest speaking training.
Thank you so much Dave for all your support and for being so friendly, professional, and above all making us laugh throughout!”
