"That was a great workshop, exactly the content and hands-on work we needed!
I was getting feedback from staff throughout, mostly boiled down to “They are amazing!” But I suspect you gleaned that from the smiles, nods, and continued engagement throughout. I’m feeling confident about my role next week, and even though I could fake that before, the stress was always underneath and I was just hoping for the minutes to pass quickly — no more!" — Sue Merrilees
"Thanks to Julie and Casey's presentation coaching, our team walked into an important talk confident and prepared, and we won the room over!
They taught us some great ways to understand our voice and our breath, improve our presence, and worked closely with us on our delivery. They knew their stuff, were fun to work with, and kept an easily distracted group fully engaged. We'd love to work with them again!" — Sandeep Ayyappan
