1. Do you feel nervous or anxious before speaking in meetings or presentations?

Frequent anxiety about public speaking is common, but coaching can help you build confidence and calm under pressure.

2. Have you ever been told that you speak too fast or too quietly?

Volume and pacing affect how your message is received. Communication coaching helps you speak with clarity and control.

3. Do you find it difficult to organize your thoughts before speaking?

Struggling to stay on point may mean you need strategies to structure your ideas more effectively.

Effective communication isn't just about talking—it's about being heard and understood.

Coaching can sharpen delivery, presence, and message clarity for pivotal moments.

9. Do you rely on filler words like “um,” “like,” or “you know” when speaking?

While common, overuse can affect how professional or credible you sound.
