Confidence is Key to Effective Communication
Leveraging your natural style will bring out a confident public speaker.
I’ll help you tap into your natural communication style and personality traits to become a confident, effective & engaging public speaker.
Let’s face it, most of us would rather be doing almost anything than public speaking! I know, I’ve been there too. If you're ready to change that fear into confidence, You’re in the right place.
After working with me you will confidently & effectively communicate your message to a group of people (small or large) in a way that is engaging & comfortable for you and your audience.
What Clients Say
I recently met Grace Lager and was blown away by her presentation on communication. She's truly gifted at crafting impactful messages and genuinely aims to empower others. Her relatable stories and approachable demeanor made a lasting impression on me. Grace's method is both straightforward and revolutionary for anyone looking to boost their business development skills. Definitely worth checking out her offerings at Grace's Comm Lab!

Why Coaching Works
​
Fear of standing up in front of a group, feeling weak in the knees, breaking into a triathlon level sweat or going completely brain dead doesn’t have to be your reality anymore.
​
Like it or not, audiences often expect speakers to be entertainers, too (thanks YouTube!). It can feel like you're climbing a mountain to get your ideas organized, create engaging visuals AND be a dynamic presenter.
​
This is where I come in: experienced, empathetic and with strategies that work.
​
You don't have to climb the mountain alone and you don’t need to be a superstar to be a confident & effective communicator. You just need to understand your natural strengths and have a little support to get you through the tough spots.
