Speaking Coaching
WHAT IS YOUR ACTUAL DREAM CAREER?
(It’s not what you think it is!)
Who you are
Perhaps you’re a solopreneur wanting to make an impact in the world with a message, be it through a TEDx talk, your first keynote, or a podcast interview! Or maybe you’re a corporate executive with a big annual retreat coming up where it’s time for you to inspire your employees.
Whether you’ve given a big speech before or not, one thing is for sure: you need professional support. You want structure, you perhaps need mindset support and you want to nail your message (even if you haven’t unlocked what it is yet!).
What your issues tend to be
Whether you have crippling anxiety at the thought of being on stage, or a big deadline and no idea where to start, you feel nervous at the thought of performing well in a high pressure environment where people are counting on you to inspire them, educate them
or support them in some way. It feels important to you that you get your message across and make an impact, and yet perhaps you have a serious writer’s block when you sit down with the intention of writing your speech. Whether you see yourself as a natural storyteller or not, you’re struggling to get focused, and get to work– not to mention the stress of prepping to actually stand and properly deliver the talk on stage, especially if it’s a talk that you need to use as a tool for business development and lead generation. The deadline is looming, the pressure is on, and you gotta deliver. You need help.

My experience of Ashley was transformational. Before finding her, I was so stuck in my own mindset. After finding her, I got the confidence to move to a new city and land a job offer beyond my wildest dreams.

I was hesitant when I found Ashley, unsure how someone could help me form a kinder relationship with myself… But I am so glad I found her. Before her, I wasn’t confident and I didn’t believe in myself. After working with her, I let go of so much anxiety and negative self talk — it is beyond words. She changed my life, and I do believe my income AND relationships massively improved bc of my work with her.Director

I followed Ashley for years before deciding to work with her… Her free content was really inspiring, and I wanted to know if her direct coaching would help me. To say it did is an understatement… Thank you Ashley for teaching me true, unshakeable confidence and for facilitating me in a way that helped me release my limitations and blocks, and step into true self worth. Our work together translated into a lot more joy in my life, as well as career options and a paycheck I didn’t even think was possible for me.

Before finding Ashley, I was so stuck emotionally and career-wise. After working with her, I upgraded my mindset and landed a job offer that was so good for me. You don’t have to sit in your stuckness alone — work with her.

Working with Ashley was life changing. I came to her at a time of my life when I was so hard on myself, and really unclear on my career path… I left her office more empowered than I ever been, and landed a few job offers that really were game-changers for me. I’ve not been the same since working with her, for the better. She is gifted at what she does. All women need someone like her in their corner.
