Who It’s For
This workshop is for professionals, leaders, entrepreneurs, existing speakers, and aspiring speakers who want to communicate with greater clarity, confidence, and impact.
It’s especially valuable if you:
✔️ Speak regularly - or want to - and feel your talks rely more on information than story.
✔️ Are an experienced speaker who wants to deepen your impact by using storytelling more intentionally.
✔️ Are an aspiring speaker who wants to build the skills, confidence, and credibility to be invited to speak at events.
✔️ Want to move beyond slides and data to create connection and inspire action.
✔️ Want to speak with authenticity, presence, and confidence — without performing or pretending to be someone you’re not.
You don’t need to be a “natural” storyteller to attend. Whether you’re already speaking or preparing to step onto bigger stages, this workshop will meet you where you are and help you grow.

About Me
For over 25 years, I’ve worked with leaders, speakers, and changemakers who want to communicate with more confidence and impact. From people taking their very first steps into public speaking to TEDx speakers across Glasgow and the University of the West of Scotland, I’ve supported hundreds to find their voice and develop presence in front of an audience.
I believe the most powerful communication comes from authenticity, not performance. My work centres on storytelling as a practical, human tool, helping people pitch ideas, share meaningful messages, reach new audiences, and create real connection.
Stories may be personal or professional - from leadership moments, challenges, successes, or everyday experiences. Your choice, your boundaries.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a confident or experienced speaker to attend?
Not at all. This workshop is designed for people at all levels, including those who feel nervous or unsure about speaking. You don’t need a polished story or prior experience, just a willingness to practice in a supportive environment.
Will I be expected to speak in front of the whole group?
You’ll be invited to practice, but always in a way that feels supportive and manageable. Group sizes are kept small, and you’ll never be put on the spot. I'll encourage you to stretch yourself, but you stay in control of how far you go.
What kind of stories will we work on?
You’ll work with stories drawn from your own professional or personal experience such as leadership moments, challenges, successes, or everyday situations. These can be adapted for presentations, pitches, meetings, or other speaking opportunities.
How is feedback handled?
Feedback is constructive, practical, and supportive. You’ll receive clear guidance on what’s working and where to focus next, without criticism or judgement. The aim is to help you grow in confidence and clarity.
Will I leave with something I can use straight away?
Absolutely! You’ll leave with practical tools, clear frameworks, and at least one story you can confidently use in your work, leadership, or speaking opportunities.
What’s the difference between the full-day and online workshop?
The full-day workshop offers more time for practice, live coaching, and in-person connection. The online half-day workshop covers the core storytelling frameworks in a focused three-hour format, with guided practice and personalised feedback.
How many people will be in the workshop?
Spaces are limited to 12 participants for both formats. This ensures plenty of time for individual practice, feedback, and personalised support.
What happens after I book?
You’ll receive a confirmation email with all the practical details, plus a link to a pre-workshop questionnaire where you can tell me your specific goals and any useful information. Everything you need will be provided on the day.
What if I’m not sure this is right for me?
If you’re curious about storytelling, want to communicate more confidently, and value learning through practice and feedback, this workshop is likely a great fit. If you’re still unsure, you’re very welcome to get in touch before booking.
