“If anybody was thinking of booking training with Kirsty, the thing I would say is…do it now. Just press the button book immediately. It might not be what you imagined. She's like no one else I've ever worked with”

“I’m a Labour Councillor and I had specific challenges around imposter syndrome and confidence. I worked with Kirsty to deliver a speech about a new policy around making Cardiff a neurodivergent friendly city. I worked so hard to get that policy over the line because I was diagnosed as neurodivergent when I was 40, after a lifetime of misdiagnosis and unexplained deep deep struggles.”
“The difference she made was just phenomenal…Kirsty is the wing person that you need”
“It was probably the biggest audience I’ve ever spoken to and it felt so deeply personal that I was incredibly anxious about it. She helped me pick out the killer points, helped me refine how to tell those and how to open the speech in a way that would get everybody listening. She gave me points on how to deliver it, when to pause, when to smile. She coached me in not only what to say, but how to say it for maximum impact. She was sensitive, kind and empathetic, but also just got straight to what we were trying to achieve.
I was blown away by the response in the room. I looked up and there were people genuinely crying. I don't think I've ever, ever experienced that as a speaker before, and I had so many people come and talk to me afterwards. And since I've been asked to speak at two conferences. She gave me the confidence and the tools to do such a good job in that first room that the ripple effect of that is still kind of resonating. It's made me believe that I have a story worth sharing.
“So I would say to anyone thinking of booking with Kirsty, to just do it! And don't go into it with preconceived expectations or ideas because whatever you think it will be, it will be different. It'll be brilliant, and you will come out of it having learned something and feeling like you've grown in some way.”

“I'm a Director of SEO. My career has seen its share of challenges, a previous work environment negatively impacted my self-confidence. I realized that, in order to move forward, I needed to face my fear of public speaking and step into leadership roles, despite the doubts I had about myself.
“I no longer doubt whether I belong in the room.”
Even though I knew I had the knowledge and skills, stepping up to speak in front of people felt daunting. I realized that if I wanted to grow—both personally and professionally—I would need to push past that fear. I found Kirsty. She just clicked with me—her message was what I needed to hear, and I felt like she could help me unlock the parts of myself that had been held back. The training was unexpected in the best possible way. I didn’t realize how deep some of my fears went.
Kirsty’s guidance helped me understand that I could unlearn my fears. I had several emotional breakthroughs and started seeing my work more clearly and with more confidence. Since the training, I’ve found the confidence to not only speak publicly but also to contribute to in ways I never imagined. I’ve won several prestigious awards and have gone on to judge international competitions. My voice has been heard, and more importantly, it’s been respected. The training helped me not only professionally but also personally.
