Transform Your Relationship With Public Speaking 

using a holistic approach that supports your voice, calms your nerves, and engages your mind.

Ready to stand out using the power of your voice? 

Before you go any further, there’s something you need to know…


Exercises and techniques to release your physical voice and use it more effectively are wonderful.
But they’ll only take you so far…

If you seek to develop yourself and your voice to achieve cherished goals without:

❌ choking on your words or freezing up

constantly second-guessing yourself

getting presentation anxiety

being misunderstood, misheard or minimized

feeling like there’s a disconnect between your mouth and brain

Then you need MORE.

To stop missing out on new opportunities and career success you need an approach that enables you to communicate with your team, peers, and leaders with ease and clarity.

 

This approach isn’t tricky. It doesn’t have to be complex or challenging. 

There are Five Golden Rules to Speaking Powerfully 

    Know who you are speaking to so you can understand what to say to them and how.

    Develop content creation and memorization techniques that allow you to speak without fumbling.

    Understand what’s holding you back and work through the blocks that prevent you from speaking with authenticity and confidence.

    Harness the power of collaborative preparation:  structure presentations and meetings so everyone involved has an engaged and joyful experience.

    Work with your breath, voice, articulation to speak confidently and get your message across with clarity.

    You need a strong approach, a structural roadmap … that enables you to do this – ON REPEAT –  for every meeting, presentation, or panel you’re a part of. 

      “Before working with SJ, I tried everything to improve my confidence and skill in public speaking – watching videos, reading books, and listening to podcasts. Good information is hard to find, and the material I was able to access on my own didn’t resonate with me. With SJ, I felt like a participant in my process instead of an observer.”

      –Mimose Parvilus

      Hi, I’m SJ

      A Global Voice & Performance Coach of 15+ years and the head of a multicultural, bilingual household.

      I trained at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and worked for 25 years as an awarded actor, playwright, and producer in 3 countries.

      I was in an oppressive situation for many years, both professionally and personally. I became a successful business owner in an industry that I initially knew nothing about in order to support my family. My artistic work was pushed to the side. 

      Every day was a challenge to be heard and brought compromises that didn’t sit well with me. My throat closed up and it required a lot of courage to bring forth my truest voice. Despite being a trained speaker I was closing up!

        SJ Harrison

        That was when I realized that bringing forth my true voice to communicate clearly was more than the physical. It was also profoundly emotional and psychological. 

        I started putting  into practice all I learned from the theatre about the psychology of performance and the connection to the body when speaking. I also recalled my father’s advice –a pioneer in Organizational Culture and Development – about the psychology of effective communication and leadership in organizations.

          Once I developed my own set of tools and techniques that focused on a more holistic approach to speaking, everything changed.

          I was finally able to bring forth my truest voice, set my boundaries, and say what I wanted without choking up. I felt at ease in my body and with my expertise. 

           

          Doing this work represented a complete alignment of self and voice for me. 

           

          It quickly became my passion to help others who struggled with fear and lack of confidence when speaking in at least one area of their lives. 

           

          In the last 15 years, I have guided over 300 clients from multiple different backgrounds, ethnicities, and countries, to develop a powerful speaking voice

            I understand matters of identity and the desire to stay true to one’s cultural context and be clearly understood in the global environment. 

            I also have a wide range of tools at my disposal to help you develop your physical and psychological voice.

            I believe that the ability to speak powerfully is within you. You just need the right tools to unlock it. 

            Now, I rank in the Top 1% of Voice and Public Speaking Coaches.

              Yahoo Logos

              I have packaged everything I learned over the years into a program with weekly calls, group discussions (with me) and more – designed to help you make real verifiable improvement with your communication goals and challenges.

                                  Yes, upon completion of the course, you can schedule a 45-minute, 1:1 targeted feedback session with me to get support with whatever you feel you need. There is also a private discussion group for participants where your coach can respond to your questions and you can share your experience with others

                                  Will I get to practice public speaking?

                                  Because this is a self-study course, there is not an opportunity to practice your public speaking. I would suggest you practice what you learn with a group of trusted individuals. And you can always use your feedback session with me to get input on your presentation style, a speech you’ve prepared or anything else that feels supportive to you.
