This week we are joined by Ted Talk Trainer, Key Note Speaker and #1 Best Selling Author Dr. Reesa Woolf. Being an enigmatic speaker herself, throughout her career, she found that she can help others tap into their own talents to become great speakers too. She offers real world tools to help us overcome fears and feel comfortable in speaking situations that might scare us. Confidence is key! Acting confident is a big part of bringing forth your best self, and together we offer you our best advice on how to be masterful in the moments that matter the most!

Dr. Reesa has simplified Excellent Public Speaking. She distilled her wisdom into a focused guide to get real results. Now, she expands her tried-and-true strategy for consistently speaking with clarity and confidence and shows you how to write every talk easily so the audience follows one point to the next.

As a mental health specialist, a personal development coach, and an all-around change agent, Dr. Reesa understands our struggles intimately, because she’s faced—and overcome—her own.
