Stage Fright to Spotlight.

  • If you’re lucky enough to be coached by Louise, you will leave the course feeling more confident.

    I was part of the course that Louise ran. Entering the first session wondering what to expect, the whole team was relieved that rather than a stuffy approach Louise’s approach was relaxed and fueled by humour. This combined with ample opportunities to practice public speaking allowed us to thrive.
