SPEAKER COACHING

High-stakes moments deserve high-level preparation

One-to-one communication coaching for leaders, executives and event presenters.

Preparation for moments that matter

I coach leaders and presenters across industries to communicate with clarity, confidence and emotional intelligence, whether they are preparing for a keynote, an internal presentation, a panel, a pitch or a critical leadership moment.

Clients work with me because the stakes are high, the message matters and they want to show up with grounded presence and impact.

  • Executives preparing for internal or external keynotes
  • Leaders elevating communication and presence
  • Spokespeople representing their organisation at events
  • Technical experts translating complexity clearly
  • Founders preparing for pitches, panels or media
  • Anyone facing a moment where how they communicate matters

What They Say

Creative Strategy Lead, TikTok

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Steph as my speaker coach for SXSW Sydney and I can’t recommend her enough. Her 1:1 coaching is where the real magic happens. Steph makes her guidance deeply personal — she doesn’t change your natural style; she enhances it, bringing out the best version of you on stage.
She went above and beyond to help me prepare for two sessions: refining my script, strengthening my presence, and even offering extra practice so I felt confident and ready. Both talks went brilliantly, and Steph was a huge part of that success.”

“Stephanie supported me through three speaker engagements at Advertising Week APAC - a Studio Stream opener, a keynote, and a case study session - and she was exceptional. Her coaching on script refinement, pacing, tone and body language was invaluable, but it was her support on event day that truly set her apart. She helped manage my energy so I walked on stage composed and confident — something I had never considered before. Stephanie was my absolute rock throughout the event, providing both encouragement and constructive feedback. Her expertise and fabulous energy lifted my speaking game in ways I didn’t know
were possible.”

Empowering leaders to show up with clarity and confidence when it matters most.
