PUBLIC SPEAKING COACHING

“You’re magic”

—Senior Product Manager, client

Unintimidating, bespoke, FUN public speaking coaching.

Public speaking can and should be a joy. And the process of learning how to be great at it can actually be really fun. I promise.

Whether you’re an account director, an entrepreneur, a tech whiz, or anyone else, speaking in public is an indispensable part of professional (and everyday) life.

After working with me you will exude confidence, whether addressing potential clients, presenting at conferences, or pitching to VCs.

Overall, the biggest benefit to working with Miriam has been the increased confidence I have gained when it comes to speaking.”

—Computer Science PhD student, client

Onboard me to level up your team.

Or hire me as your own communication secret weapon.

We’ll use acting, improv, physical, and vocal techniques, many rooted in comedy, to make you speak authentically, confidentially, and with authority. You’ll be blown away by yourself :).

Yes, this is for professionals, and yes, we work with comedy. This is for two reasons:

Comedy techniques/games/tricks/tools make this work fun.

Having a light approach/humor makes everyone a much more effective communicator.

Let’s up your charisma and charm!

It works.

Anyone can get significantly better at public speaking to level up on the job

I’ve been working with Miriam for the past three months, and her coaching has had a remarkable impact on my presentation skills and ability to influence clients. Since working with her, I’ve received positive feedback from both clients and internal leadership - specifically on how effectively I tailor and deliver messages to different audiences.
— Senior Account Director, Client
Miriam, brimming with enthusiasm and verve, led us through a series of exercises that brought out the drama queen in all of us, from introverts to polished C-suiters. By the end, we were presenting with aplomb. We were more entertaining and passionate then I thought a bunch of anxious tech geeks could be. Miriam brought us all together and brought out the best in our interpersonal communication and honed our on-the-fly responsiveness. As a startup founder, I’m thinking it would great to hire Miriam to make our pitch even more effective. This practical, tailored approach ensures that every session strengthens my professional development in a meaningful way.

TAILORED FOR YOU

Bespoke sessions based on you and your goals

Miriam’s sessions blend engaging exercises focused on dynamic speaking, vocal variety, and infusing enthusiasm, with real-time practice on projects directly relevant to my role. This practical, tailored approach ensures that every session strengthens my professional development in a meaningful way. What sets Miriam apart is how adaptable and buildable her program is. Unlike other public speaking courses I’ve participated in, her coaching feels both highly personalized and immediately applicable. I look forward to continuing to work with her to refine and elevate my skills even further.
