Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Fear of Public Speaking is so common. Even the greats, like Barbra Streisand have spoken of their fear thru the years. Unlike other coaches, who believe "you're not alive, unless you feel a little nervous," I believe that fear of public speaking is Not a GIVEN. We weren't born with this fear. Client feedback: "Marilyn, you've helped me see this in a totally different way - No more butterflies! I can't believe this. I'm actually having fun connecting with audience members!" 1) Why struggle with those uncomfortable feelings, when even thinking about public speaking? 2) Why not have a Signature Talk that gets your audience members to want to engage with you further after you speak? My whole life has been around "performing" (and I'm somewhat introverted); I've traveled the spectrum of fear in my journey from feeling terror to now loving the art of connecting with an audience. I love coaching others so they can enjoy speaking with confidence when connecting with 1 or many. 3) Why? Your message is important! Why not confidently share that message with others whether in person or virtually (I am also certified as a "Camera Ready Virtual Speaker).

Marilyn is my go to coach for public speaking.  While presenting hasn’t necessarily been my favorite part of work, I know how important it is, in the corporate environment.  Marilyn has helped make the experience more enjoyable.  She has not only helped me shape my presentations, and honor my own style, but has taught me a wonderful relaxing way to prepare, before connecting with my audience.  I highly recommend Marilyn!

Details: Beginner • 26 - 44 years old • Speech content • Verbal delivery • Connecting with audience • To prepare for an event • Business • Within 1 month • My home, venue, etc. • Remotely (phone or internet)

I sought out Marilyn after many months of being unemployed. My emotional and mental state was very pessimistic. After working with Marilyn for a few months , she gave me the tools and counseling to help rebuild my confidence in my job search. I attacked my job search with new energy and optimism and am on my way to my next career opportunity. Thank you Marilyn!

Marilyn created a fun, interactive, and very educational public speaking training class for my sales team. She was very responsive to my requests and made sure she understood the teams needs along with our company's culture and history.

Marilyn Feinstein coached me in ways that gave me the self-confidence to reach my goals. Drawing on my positive experiences, she helped me apply my own strengths to the challenges I faced. She helped me not only with goal setting and designing a plan, but gently helped me make sure I followed through with the actions and commitment I made to myself in achieving my goals. She used effective techniques in helping me work through anticipated problems (i.e., with difficult sales prospects) and move forward. I always looked forward to my coaching sessions, as Marilyn created a warm and safe environment in which she helped stimulate my growth. I highly recommend Marilyn to anyone who wants to grow personally or professionally. Carol High, Principal Broker Carol High Commercial Real Estate, Inc.
