You're here because you're ready to speak like a professional
Public speaking shouldn’t feel like a panic attack waiting to happen. Whether you have a high-stakes presentation coming up or just want to feel more confident in front of an audience, the first step is knowing what’s holding you back—so I can help you fix it.
You know you should be practicing your speech, but every time you think about it… you suddenly need to reorganize your entire inbox. Or grab a snack. Or do literally anything else.
Maybe you avoid practicing because it feels overwhelming. Or you think, “I’ll just wing it.” (Spoiler: That never ends well.)
The truth? Public speaking confidence doesn’t come from “power posing” or “thinking positive.” It comes from taking action—one simple step at a time.
And that’s exactly what I’ll show you how to do.
Hi, I’m Val.
Hey, I’m Val! Public speaking coach, award-winning speaker, Iron-Man!
I love an adventure, and over the years I’ve learned that even when the climb is tough, you can tackle it with positivity. I inspire a confident and grounded sense of “Hey, I CAN do this!” in all of my coaching clients.




Thank you for all your help Val. In such a short time, you made my speech better than it would have been. I learned tons and my tool kit has greatly expanded. Thank you.
Your speak with confidence coaching was focussed and content rich. It was fun and engaging which made it so easy to take in. I loved it. Thankyou.
I couldn’t believe how much I learned in such a short amount of time. Your tips were easy to include and I found the immediate feedback on my eye contact very helpful. Already I feel more confident.
The way you used a running metaphor to explain the speech process made an impact on me. Now when I write a speech, I can write is so much faster”.
“When I first started working with Val, I felt shy and unsure of myself. I had been looking for a job, and although I had many interviews, I was always passed over. After only three sessions with Val, I went into my next interview with confidence. After three rounds of interviews, I got my dream job. I can not than you enough, Val.”
