You can really care about your work and know your material inside out. You can feel totally solid in what you’re there to share.

And then you have to deliver it…😱

Your breath changes. Your voice feels tighter. Your body speeds up a notch. Part of you is leading and another part is trying to hold yourself together at the same time.

That’s the bit people don’t really talk about and it’s often the thing that holds you back, keeps your mind whirring at 2am and the reason that brilliant work stays hidden.

Holding a room comfortably isn’t about being polished or putting on a “confident” front. It’s about feeling steady enough in yourself to let your work come through clearly and naturally.

When you feel grounded and comfortable the whole space feels it, and you feel it too. It’s the alchemy of a live space. 🧪 ⚡️

People settle and listen differently. There’s more trust and ease and your content lands with deeper connection.

This is why I care so much about supporting space holders. Coaches, yoga teachers, workshop leads, wellbeing practitioners, anyone guiding people through meaningful experiences.

In Hold The Room we work on the real, human side of leading a space. How you arrive. How you use your energy. How you stay connected to yourself while you’re guiding everyone else.

We do this together in the workshop.
Two practical hours online to explore it and actually practise it.
£37 until the end of March, £47 after that.

If you want more info about what the workshop content will look like, feel free to DM me the word SPACE and I’ll be sure to send that through.

I hear people wanting to be the easy one, saying yes and keeping quiet. I see people making themselves smaller so things run smoothly. I’ve totally been that person.

In experience, it pulls you away from who you actually are and what really matters.

⭕️ Your boundaries are there for a reason.
🗣️ Your voice deserves space.
🔋 Your energy is worth protecting.

AND

🛌 It’s also okay to rest.
✔️ To choose what feels right
💡 To say yes to what lights you up

You don’t have to perform confidence. You’re allowed to just be yourself in the room, in the conversation, in your life. Fully. Freely. Comfortably.

If you’re figuring this out, you’re not on your own.
Support makes it easier to sustain. We do this together in coaching. ✨

Confidence doesn’t come from certainty.
It comes from self-trust.

🗺️ From knowing you’ll cope, even if things don’t go exactly to plan.
🤔 From remembering you’ve handled tricky moments before.
🔗 From staying connected to yourself instead of waiting for everything to feel perfectly lined up.

That kind of confidence tends to grow as you come back to yourself and get more familiar with how you deal with things day to day. 🌱

It changes how you show up. In conversations, in decisions, in those moments where doubt used to run the show.

If you’re wanting more of that, I offer 1-1 coaching where we work with real-life situations at your pace so self-trust becomes something you can actually feel, not just think about.

And if you’d rather explore it in a group, the Comfortable Confidence workshop is a really supportive place to start. 28/03/26 12pm-3pm

A small continuation of Wednesday’s post.

Confidence isn’t always something to build from scratch. Often it’s about recognising the evidence that’s already there.

What have you already handled that you don’t give yourself credit for?

If this sounds familiar and you’d like a bit of support with it, I’m here.

Here’s your Thursday journal prompt and one for facilitators, teachers, coaches or space holders of any kind!

“When I’m holding space, I feel most confident when…”

If you facilitate, lead, coach, teach or even host gatherings this is worth exploring.

🔵When do you feel grounded in the room?
🔵What’s happening in your body?
🔵How are you breathing?
🔵What are you paying attention to?
🔵What are you not trying to control?

And then the honest bit…

🔵When do you start to feel yourself tighten? Rush? Over-function? Shrink slightly?

No judgement. Just noticing.

Holding the room isn’t about being the most confident person in it. It’s about knowing what’s happening in you while everything else is happening around you.

That awareness is the foundation of strong facilitation.

We explore this much more deeply in Hold The Room, my online workshop for space holders who want to facilitate their work with more steadiness and impact.
But even this small reflection can be revealing.

Curious what shows up for you.

A small confidence reframe. 🖼️

A lot of people tell me they just need to feel more confident.

Often, when we look a little closer, it’s not more confidence they need. It’s more evidence.

🕵️Evidence that they can handle things.
🫆Evidence that they’ve navigated discomfort before.
🔍Evidence that they’re more capable than their inner critic suggests.

Confidence doesn’t appear out of nowhere. It’s uncovered when you begin to recognise what’s already there.

Quite often it just means paying attention to what you’ve already handled. There’s something quite freeing about that. 🍃

If this resonates and you’d like some support with it, I’m here. I’m a confidence coach 👋 and this is exactly the kind of work I love doing. ❤️

Holding the room is a skill in itself.

Many of the coaches and space holders I know or have worked with with know their material intimately, care for their clients deeply, yet still find that leading a session can take more out of them than they expected.

This new live online workshop brings together my background as a professional actor and confidence coach to support the unseen mechanics of facilitation. Presence. Pacing. Voice. Energy in the room.

If you are the face of your work in real time with clients and this resonates, you would be very welcome.

Support makes this easier to sustain. We do this together in the workshop.

📅 Wednesday 15 April
⏰ 6.30pm to 8.30pm
📍 Online via Zoom

I am really excited to be opening bookings for this. 💃

Over the past year I have noticed something cropping up regularly in the coaches, facilitators and space holders I meet.

They know their material deeply and they care enormously about the people in the room.

And yet sometimes the delivery feels more effortful than expected.

Holding a room is a skill in its own right.

Hold the Room is a practical two hour online workshop for coaches, facilitators and space holders who want their delivery to feel more engaging, natural and supported in real time.

As a professional actor turned confidence coach, this is the space where my two worlds meet, bringing practical tools from performance into the real world of facilitation.

Together we will explore:

⌛️ Pacing and rhythm
💬 Articulation and delivery
🗣️ Vocal tone and intonation
🫁 How the body and breath support your presence when you are leading
📖 The story arc of your class
⚡️ Managing energy in the room.

This is not about becoming more polished, it’s about becoming more connected, more responsive and more comfortably confident in the room.

If this resonates and you are the face of your business, holding space for clients online or in-person, you would be very welcome.

📅 Wednesday 15 April
⏰ 6.30pm to 8.30pm
📍 Online via Zoom
💷 £37 early bird or £47 standard

Comfortable Confidence — update

There are now just 3 spaces remaining for the upcoming workshop • 28/03/26 • 12pm- 3pm • £55 •

If you’ve been considering whether this might be the right moment to explore your confidence in a more supported, grounded way, this could be your gentle nudge.

The Comfortable Confidence workshop is a small, supportive space to slow things down, reconnect with your self-trust and practice responding in ways that feel more like you.

It’s thoughtful, practical and very human work.

Watching these 🌼 come through in the garden has been a nice reminder…Nothing in nature rushes as there’s no sense of being late and certainly no comparison with the flower next door. Just an unfolding when the conditions are right.

It makes me think about how often we forget that in our own lives.

If things feel slow right now or not quite where you hoped they would be, it doesn’t automatically mean you’re off track. Sometimes growth is happening in ways that aren’t immediately visible from the outside.

Whichever season you find yourself in, I hope you’re feeling gently nourished and supported. 🌼 💧☀️

Confidence coaching is not about becoming more confident.

It is about noticing the moments when your confidence is already there…steady, present & available to you …and then giving yourself permission to stay.

The people I work with can access confidence.
They have felt it & lived it in certain moments.

What often happens is they move out of it too quickly. Almost like a self-sabotage.
Do they override it, push past it or they assume they need to be doing more with it.

Comfortable confidence lives in that middle space.
Where you feel safe enough in yourself & connected enough to stay present with what is actually happening.

On your own this can be hard to work through.
Support makes this easier to sustain.

We do this together in coaching and workshops.

If this resonated, you would be very welcome in my world.
