The world of work is a truly terrifying place. Where your communication skills are forgotten, your individuality is chipped away at, and your real voice is lost.
If you feel trapped in that cloud of confusion right now, I’ll not only pop it for you, but show you how to be yourself again, and how to get your voice heard louder than ever. It’s something I’ve always done…
Want to see some of the sectors I work with? Go here.
Back when I finished London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama, I needed a way to bring the pennies in between acting jobs. When it became clear that the jobs on offer required a personality I didn’t possess – or want to, I realised I needed to create something of my own.
It turned out to be the best decision I could have made. I used my business loan to launch a children’s drama school. And as luck would have it, teaching kids was a joy. They’re fearless, full of confidence and don’t care what other people think.
The parents though? Different species. They’re so focused on getting the best for their kids that their own confidence took a back seat. But when they saw the transformation in their children, they begged me to help them too.
Not wanting to get stuck in a rut myself, I sold my drama school and spent the next few years travelling the world, working in theatres, teaching drama, writing books and at one point, directing the presenters of the Eurovision Song Contest in Istanbul. That was an experience…
When London called, I came home, set up my own training company, training technical specialists, marketeers and charities how to be better public speakers, get their points across confidently, become better managers and more.
One day I could be teaching interview skills to someone rebuilding their life after prison; the next showing CEOs how to be more assertive. It can be tough when people are struggling with confidence or over-estimating their abilities, but as a natural truth-teller, I say it as it is, and they always listen.
And the acting? That’s still going strong: I’ve won awards for the comedies I’ve produced, bounced around in comedy improv and slid on to TV.
Finding your true voice isn’t just about how you speak. It’s about body language, non-verbal communication and even understanding the personalities of others.
I roll all the techniques I’ve learned from theatre, improv and writing into one, and combine them with my training in psychology and NLP (the language of the mind), creating practical, interactive training and coaching – with a generous dose of fun – that make a huge difference.
It’s why organisations of all sizes keep coming back to me for training.

Creative Problem Solving Training
Use communication to get to better ideas faster – and turn them into action, even when your team’s scattered across time zones and half the room is secretly relying on AI to think for them.
