Workshops

My team needs help with their communication!

Choose all that apply:

  1. Overly detailed slides packed with tiny text that the speaker reads word-for-word.

  2. No clear point – lots of information, but you’re not sure what you’re supposed to think or do.

  3. Jargon-heavy language that assumes everyone has the same background knowledge.

  4. Too many ideas at once, with no structure to show what matters most.

  5. Data dumps – charts, stats, and numbers without context or meaning.

  6. Starting in the middle, with no setup or framing for why this matters.

  7. Inconsistent messaging, where the main idea keeps subtly changing.

  8. Over-explaining simple things while skipping the important parts.

  9. Abstract concepts only, with no examples, stories, or visuals to ground them.

  10. No call to action, leaving the audience thinking “Okay… now what?”

I’m here to help!

Team Message Workshops

In 2 hours your team will transform from unclear and confusing to remembered and repeated.

Using my SURE Thing framework, you and your team will learn how to make your ideas:

  • Simple – cut through the noise with clarity
  • Understood – deliver messages that land, every time
  • Remembered – create that “click” moment that lasts
  • Executed – move people from insight to action

This isn’t just theory, it’s a session packed with practical tools.

Putting it into practice

We then immediately practice the methods with topics your team is currently communicating.

Whether you’re pitching, presenting, or persuading, you’ll experience that click moment for yourself and walk away knowing exactly how to create it for your own audience.

Workshop Testimony

“When I started this class nine weeks ago, I was someone who hated talking in public.
But something changed here. In these nine weeks, I went from avoiding the spotlight, to realizing that I want to share my voice, my stories, and maybe even inspire others one day. So thank you, truly, for giving me the space to grow, to feel safe, to laugh, and to find a part of myself I didn’t know existed.”
-Sara, Workshop Participant

Being remembered and repeated is one workshop away.
