I was asked to officiate at my goddaughter’s wedding, and I wanted it to be a heartfelt reflection of their love and values. I had so much great raw material, both from them and their families and a good framework, but I needed it to really sing. 

Katherine was the one call I made. After 20 years of developing presentations for executives and coaching them on presentation delivery, I needed an expert myself, one with both head and heart. Katherine was able to edit my ceremony notes and make them come to life, and, in doing so, build my confidence and enthusiasm for this new role. The ceremony was what we’d all hoped for—personal and powerful.

Katherine took the time to get to know me as a person, to understand my relationship with my now husband, and to help articulate my goals for the wedding and exchange of vows. She helped me get all of my thoughts outs and gave me basic structure to work from. 

She then provided the right amount of space and guidance to have the words be my own but also asked questions to help draw out insights that I wouldn’t have included otherwise. Most importantly, Katherine never tried to have me be something that I am not. Once the vows were written, Katherine listened to me practice and gave pointers which built up my confidence. She also provided so much love and encouragement along the way.

Thank you SO much for your coaching and support - the presentation went so incredibly well and your guidance was a direct contributor to its success. The room gave applause twice during the presentation (which was so cool) and at the end there was a resounding “thanks” from the attendees.

The storytelling piece of it was what made it, with your recommendations, and visuals etc. Thank you!

Working with Katherine is like a breath of fresh air as she finds just the right balance of encouraging you and building even more clarity in you for your work!

Katherine knows how to help you distill your message down to the most critical parts, stay in touch with your authentic voice, and deliver on what the audience would most enjoy hearing.

I worked with her to write a speech for my first keynote address and achieved a feeling of fulfillment & satisfaction at an authentic message landing with the audience AND (surprise bonus) new clients in my business.

Katherine’s approach is the opposite of clichéd, cookie-cutter advice. Through casual conversation and asking questions, Katherine skillfully teases out what is most important and true to you as an individual and makes sure that comes across in your particular speech or presentation.

She is incredibly easy and fun to work with and will accommodate your schedule. I don’t ever want to give another speech in my life without getting the support and partnership that Katherine provides.
