“It was easy to look at and acknowledge some of the deep-seated fears and discomforts that are really holding me back. Not only that, **Megan taught me some great techniques to counter some of the emotional and physical manifestations of my anxiety when speaking.**

- ***Kate Archibald-Cross***, Communications Assistant

Are you are so tired of this neverending saga of misrepresenting yourself ? You over-prepare, go over every scenario in your head, practise over and over again. You’re ready.

But when it’s finally time… you stammer, lose your train of thought and sputter your way through, racing to the finish line just to get this shit over with.

It’s awful. It’s disheartening. It’s frustrating. It’s not the real you!

It’s been like this forever.

Gaslighting Yourself

Over the years you’ve noticed that when presenting to mostly male colleagues, you feel like you’re not taken seriously. You start to feel anxious and hot, and you tell yourself it’s all in your head, that you’re imagining it. It’s probably just that you’re terrible at public speaking.

What about the office meeting where somebody said something really offensive? You could feel your stomach begin to churn as you thought about everything you wanted to say. Decisions were being made that you weren’t comfortable with and you knew you shouldn’t keep silent. But you did.

Then there’s that colleague that keeps interrupting you to ask questions, even though you’d said you’d take questions at the end. Or the co-worker who undermines you constantly and makes you feel like she thinks you’re a bit stupid. You find yourself wondering… are you just making all of this up? Is it you?

It isn’t.

"Megan's approach to teaching concrete speaking skills, combined with the welcoming and nurturing atmosphere she created, made Big Voices an amazing experience. I was able to uplevel my speaking and feel comfortable doing so. I’m left with powerful tools I can draw on whenever I need. If you are tired of being held back by your reluctance to speak, or if you just want to improve and find more polish, this course is a smart investment to make in yourself.”

- Sara Montgomery, Data and Analysis Expert

Your Intuition is Right

What if the inklings you get, where something seems off, and you have a sense that everyone in the room is judging you... what if you’re right? That they are judging you. What if you weren’t making it all up in your head and it’s a reality that many people face and can learn how to overcome?

What if you had tools and a system that you could use in these uncomfortable, disheartening situations so that you never again had to feel like you couldn’t speak up? What if you felt confident enough to tell your co-worker to stop interrupting you?

What if you could stop shaking, speak clearly, and stay calm and focused?

What if you could present to 100 people? What about 1,000?

What if you could confidently speak up in any situation? What would that feel like?

It would feel life-changing. Right?

“**I signed up for Big Voices to help improve my confidence and sharpen my skills when public speaking, but received so much more.** ”

- ***Leanne Devlin***, Teacher

Ever had any of these happen?

hot and embarrassing blushing?
couldn’t stop stammering?
shaking - even in your voice?
noticeable sweating?
anxiety attacks?
losing your train of thought or focus?

Ever found yourself:

staying silent because you’re fearful of how others will judge you?
turning down opportunities because you don’t think you’re good enough?
worrying that they’re going to figure out the truth about you?
berating yourself after a presentation and reliving every anxious detail?

You’re not alone. Not by a longshot.

I’m a speaking, visibility and confidence coach for women and non-binary folks.
I help you figure out the root causes of your speaking fears and give you a solid system of tools and training so you know how to give a strong presentation (and recover if something goes off the rails). You’ll learn how to be visible and cultivate confidence as you *are*, and not as you think you “should” be.
Also I wanna fuck up the patriarchy so making sure we hear from new voices is a foundational step to that end.

"I had such a good experience taking this course. I feel way more comfortable in preparing loose scripts for videos and sharing my thoughts with people. **I've always thought public speaking to larger groups was out of the question but now I'm not sure I will count it out any more.**"

- ***Danielle McAllister***, Entrepreneur and YouTuber with 23,000+ followers

🎉Equipped. With a toolbox full of solutions to your fears, objections and self doubt

🎉Empowered. It’ll feel so great to finally feel like you’re representing yourself in a positive way.

🎉Energized. This shit is old, right? Been bothering you for years? Think of the freedom of finally letting those old feelings about yourself go!
