Please don’t do it for your kids 👧🏼👦🏼

I’m serious.

When someone tells me they want to get better at public speaking to set a good example for their kids, I suggest they find a deeper reason.

I love children, I love that they love their children, but the people who work with me to become calm and confident public speakers, get the most from it when they are doing it for themselves.

NOT

FOR

THEIR

KIDS

When you decide that YOU ARE WORTH feeling comfortable in your own skin at the front of the room and don’t make it all about the little people at home, you’ll get and give FAR more.

It’s great to set good examples and all that jazz, but the best example of all for your kids is the one they learn day in day out, when you’re just being you, not trying to to create a ‘teachable moment’.

When they see you empowered, confident, calm, successful, self-assured, speaking your truth and not growling the night before a presentation they’ll want to copy you, but don't make that your reason.

You don’t want to teach your children to ONLY do something if it benefits their own children, do you?

It’s time to make meaningful changes for YOU - to be willing to share all of you instead of shying away and playing safe. Stop diluting your ideas and shrinking in front of a crowd for fear of others asking ‘Who does she think she is?’

People will love you, people might judge you - and that’s just life.

P.S. - I have a wonderful teen stepdaughter, I don’t have bio children but I understand my worth, and so should you.

“Sophia, I feel like a fraud. People say I look confident, but when it comes to public speaking I feel myself holding back.” 🎤

Here’s the truth: this 👆🏽 is NORMAL for a lot of people.

You can boss it in the kitchen 🧑‍🍳 but set off the fire alarm baking cupcakes 🧁

You can arrange jaw-dropping flowers 💐 but still manage to murder a cactus 🪴

Struggling in ONE area doesn’t make you a fraud. It makes you human.

But congratulations, you’ve spotted the gap.

And that is GAME CHANGING, because you’re not the type to let nerves hold you back.

You’re ready to own your space, and leave your mark.

And honestly?

It’s time to stop playing small 🕵️

Would you trust a surgeon who said, “Eh, I’m alright”?

Exactly.

You are not here to blend in.

You’re here to lead.

To inspire.

Nobody, and I mean N-O-B-O-D-Y. has your unique story, skills, and energy.

The world needs your voice.

And if you’ve been holding back because of nerves, let me tell you: that ends now.

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

DM me, and let’s get you speaking with the confidence you KNOW is in there.

Sophia.

I'm not going to lie 🤣, I had a bit of a vulnerability hangover when I saw this pop up in the local press on Monday.

Why?

Because so many of my public speaking clients share the belief that they shouldn't blow their own trumpet." 🎺

And so I am reminding myself of what I tell them... if you have a service or product to offer that makes someone's live easier or radically transforms it for the better, you are a great big MEANIE if you keep it to yourself.

So, here I am, a rooting-and-a-tooting my trumpet.

Join the merry gang 👯 💃🏻

Have we met yet? 💞

If we haven't, you'll likely have no idea who I am, and we can soon sort that!

My name's Sophia, besties call me Soph (and my stepdaughter calls me Sofizzzz).

Cheeky peeps at school used to call me legs-11, posh girl - and other way more offensive stuff.

I was born in the Highlands of Scotland, have lived in many places including Cyprus, North Yorkshire, Edinburgh, West Yorkshire - and now we're back living just north of Inverness.

Please BAN me from ever helping you with the following:

☕️ - Anything coffee related (I've had one sip of coffee in my life, hated it)

💻 - Anything tech related

🔢 - I'm brilliant with my own money but I run a mile from spreadsheets etc

I'm way way way better at helping you:

🗣️ - Conquer your fear of public speaking / presentation anxiety at work.

☎️ - Communicate clearly in a way that keeps you in full integrity.

🛀🏽 - Learn how to relax (through yoga & hypnosis).

🫦 - Overcome fears and phobias.

The things I can help you with mean that:

🗣️ - You present feeling calm and confident and people feel safe with you.

💃🏻 - You deepen your self-belief, get new clients, make more ££ in your business or get promoted

😥 - You stop hiding away and stop being overlooked for promotion or by potential clients.

🥰 - You get visible, vocal and vibrant which means people get to know, like and LOVE and a host of brand new opportunities flow your way.

You and I might just have met though, so you might not fully trust me yet!

Your turn!

Introvert 🤓

Quite shy 🙈☺️

These are two words that people perhaps wouldn't 'immediately' assign to me these days, but in days gone by... trying to pull two words from me was a battle, networking or speaking in public just wasn't an option.

If you're in business there's only one real way to stand out from the noise, and that's to be real and in person...

I wrote about it in this month's Executive Magazine ⬇️

Have you ever received a really weird or wonderful gift from a client?

Over the past 14 years I've been lucky enough to be given:

💞 A mini zen garden (full of sand, pebbles and a little rake).

💞 A tray with biscuits, herbal tea, two beautiful mugs.

💞 A keyring with my initial on it.

💞 Beautiful journals.

💞 A scarf.

💞 A homemade wooden candle holder (see photo).

And last year one of my clients brought me this stunning piece of sea glass ⬇️ from the beach next to her home.

What’s the most unusual, weird or wonderful gift you’ve ever received from a client?
