Speaking. Comfortably.
Do you dread every time you have to talk in front of a group? Have you stopped speaking up because you can’t get your thoughts into words? Designed to remove the overwhelm from your next speaking gig, White Sparrow Coaching offers practical presentation instruction that aligns with your unique style.
Anyone can be an effective presenter.
How do you overcome fear of public speaking? Comfortable, confident presentations are attainable. You don’t have to be TED-worthy to connect with your audience. No matter if you’re on stage or in front of your computer, White Sparrow Coaching can help you calm your nerves and take control of the room.
Panicking when it’s your turn to talk during a meeting? Avoiding a promotion because you’re not ready to lead a team chat? You’ve come to the right place.
What kinds of skills do I need for public speaking? Start with these:
- Create a script that resonates with your audience.
- Practice what you’re going to say until you know it by heart.
- Optimize your breathwork and posture for maximum effect (bonus: this will help you naturally reduce your anxiety and banish those sweaty palms).
- Dress the part, the part of a comfortable, confident speaker.
The truth is, sometimes it’s hard to know how well we’re doing without someone to give us targeted feedback. The folks who are listening to your presentation aren’t keeping tabs on your performance. What they are unconsciously registering is how well your skills help them understand what they need to know.
Even if you do ask for a coworker to weigh-in, you have to navigate workplace power differentials. You’ve also got to consider how good the person is as a speaker, and how well they’re able to translate that knowledge into tips you can use.
Don’t get us wrong, you can absolutely benefit from having an ally in the room to improve your communication (among other things), but ultimately there’s no replacement for a dedicated person in your corner. White Sparrow Coaching offers practical solutions to your public speaking and presentation nightmares.

Personal Brand Voice
If you’ve ever had someone you don’t really know say, “Hey, I was looking at your profile the other day and…” then you know the tension of wondering how they’re going to finish that sentence. Living in the age of social media means that sometimes we’re judged by our online presence alone. If we’re not…
