FAQs

What is the cost?

Cost will determined in our first call. We will consider many variables: the length, complexity, stakes, budget, how much time you have, and your current comfortability with the material.

Range can be anywhere from $350 to $3500 (Or more...maybe you'd like to spend a weekend working on it in person? What's best for you?)

How do I get the absolute most out of our work together?

Great question! So glad you asked...

  1. Start as soon as possible. Weather you are speaking later this week or 3 months from now, comfortable with public speaking or sweating just thinking about it, clear on your message or still piecing it together...the sooner you start the better.

    We can improve your presentation in a single session, but best results and lasting growth will come from strategically using the time available, especially if we can meet more than once. A spacious collaborative process allows time to discover and develop creative ideas, internalize what you learn, and deliver at your very best. 

  2. Show up for yourself. In addition to the sessions that we have scheduled, if you put work in on your presentation in between sessions when possible (with my guidance on how to work), your end product will be vastly improved. 

    To illustrate, If you have ever heard an interviewer say to a director that they "got a great performance out of the actor..." yes, the skilled director deserves some credit. But the magic is in the collaboration. When both the actor and the director come to the rehearsal well-prepared, that's when the work can take the biggest leaps forward. 

  3. Go the extra mile. Use the time leading up to your presentation to take extra good care of yourself. Maybe make a commitment to staying hydrated, getting more steps in every day, or going to bed earlier. Whatever you choose, having "a secret" about your preparation (in addition to working with me), will give you a little extra glow when your moment arrives.
