Finding Your Voice is a virtual retreat (in person also available, circumstances permitting) that creates life changing power moments for participants resulting in an accelerated career and life trajectory. By ‘channeling your inner rockstar’ people improve professional communication skills and become better speakers, leaders, managers and team members. Using the tools of the singer/songwriter, participants will bond in a new way, and become more confident public speakers while enhancing their overall presence. In this fun and empowering experience we learn how to banish your inner critic, unlock creativity and enhance collaboration and teamwork. I offer tools to bring your team together and to fearlessly generate creative content through writing exercises and musical interaction. In the half day workshop, your team will enjoy creating and performing their own songs. There is also the opportunity for your team members to continue this work through my monthly virtual retreats.
Whether you want your team to be more connected as people, more confident communicators, or just want to give them some much needed fun, Finding Your Voice delivers.
