A Note from Andrea Beaulieu

The folks I work with sometimes share their speaking "horror stories," which is often why they seek me out. They don't want to experience that again!

My purpose is to support you to unload whatever is standing in the way of sharing your message, and to learn the tools to deliver your story powerfully from your authentic voice. To do that, you must first move past your horror story.

In the video below, I share three ideas to move past your speaking horror story and into your speaking brilliance! Scroll down to Tales of Transformation & Artistry and . . .

Now Board Certified in NLP
To be able to provide more tools to help my clients, I undertook training in Neuro Linguistic Programming, or NLP. NLP uses the language of the mind to consistently achieve specific and desired outcomes. I'm proud to announce I am now a board certified practitioner of NLP and have begun using these very effective tools with my clients.

Move Past Your Speaking Horror Story into Your Speaking Brilliance!
 
I know you've heard it. You share a disappointing speaking experience  with a friend and you're told, "It's okay. The next time will be better." Or, "You're great! Don't worry about it. I'm sure no one noticed." Or, my favorite, "I don't know why you're so upset. These things happen. You're not perfect, you know."

For some, this advice would work, and certainly, there are kernels of truth in all of it. I haven't found it to be enough, though, and neither have many of my clients.

To move past those speaking horror stories often takes a little more effort and a lot more heart.
