What clients say
I’ve worked with a broad range of clients – and they all recognise the value and impact that confident, engaging presenters and communicators have.
People who can positively connect with – and influence – the people they’re speaking to, for measurable action and results. Whether that’s via a presentation, speech, media or panel appearance.
Below is a sample of feedback: what clients say, followed by organisations I’ve worked with.
I passed the exam! A big thank you to you for all your help – the techniques you taught me worked and I’m certain they contributed to my success on the day.

My Team of certified Project Managers were delivering projects successfully, but I realized that good public speaking and presentation skills are an integral part.
The three workshops she did for us were a huge success.
In fact, a Team member who dreaded public speaking, did the best presentation during the third workshop! The workshops were fun, we learned from each other, we encouraged each other and more importantly the learnings are lifelong!
Personally, I kept taking guidance from Sarah even after her official engagement was over. She was very supportive, and I have no hesitation in saying that Sarah – you have been an integral part of my journey from Manager to Director.

Sarah is a great teacher – kind and gentle and works in a very positive way with people. She has a knack of building confidence and giving people the skills they need.
I was overseeing the management of a group of 20 projects for a large company. Sarah was engaged to improve the presentation skills of Project Managers who were expected to present progress to the CEO and senior board members regularly and felt unprepared. She quickly established rapport with all staff and was able to assist them in a very short timeframe. There was noticeable improvement and their confidence grew rapidly.
I believe that the skills each person gained will stand them in good stead in many roles throughout their careers.

Sarah provided training in public speaking to the LiverWELL team last week and we were able to see an improvement in our skills within one day! Sarah managed the diverse requirements of our staff and lived experience speakers with sensitivity and warmth. A combination of experience, expert advice, science and a little humour made it a highly valuable and enjoyable day. I would highly recommend Sarah.

Communications and Engagement Manager - LiverWELL
I really enjoyed the three sessions and got some good information – (for me) learnt a lot about how to present in a less structured way.
Peter Fenby
Senior Business Development Manager, Steinert
Something I found particularly good about Sarah’s style was her individual approach. She recognised that each individual person had strengths and weaknesses and helped everyone with their unique weaknesses. Normally these training sessions have a “one size fits all“ approach and that was certainly not the case here.
Sam Powell
Technical Sales Manager, Steinert
Sarah has helped me prepare for an upcoming conference in which I will be presenting. The entire process has been extremely helpful and I am very grateful for the assistance she has provided. I recommend to anyone looking to improve their public speaking abilities!
Jeremy Graham
Computational Design Leader | Speaker | Developer
I encourage anyone looking to develop their interpersonal skills to reach out to Sarah. I cannot recommend her Speaker’s Confluence program enough as it’s helped me gain the confidence and skills to have more engaging interactions.
She has the ability to tailor courses to your specific needs so you can target and hone specific skills rather than a generic overview. 10/10 recommend!

I had a great experience working with Sarah over the last couple of months on the public speaking and executive communication skills. Sarah’s knowledge of the field is extensive, and she continuously went the extra mile to address my specific questions. Looking forward to working with Sarah in the future.
Natalia Kozyura
Head Of Innovation Center at FWD Insurance, Singapore
Sarah is an extraordinarily effective speaking coach. I’ve had multiple coaching sessions with her, and every time, gain learning that’s translated into noticeable impact in my presentations.
Before coming to Sarah I already had a fair bit of experience. Sarah listened intently to my goals, asked amazing questions for clarity, then workshopped with feedback as I practiced.
This was both inspiring and encouraging – she drew out strengths to double-down on, and highlighted areas I can improve, and different ways audiences could interpret my message.
Sarah truly cares, and the quality and quantity of feedback made a significant difference for me. An expert in her craft, amazing insights, and a supportive, effective coach.
I’d highly recommend her to anyone who wants to find their unique voice and style.
Paul Hughes
Director of Engineering - Culture Amp
The workshop was a great opportunity for our Whitelion clients to get practical skills that they can apply in their everyday lives. Sarah spent considerable time ensuring that she tailored the workshop and presentation to our target group which was highly appreciated.
Sarah was incredibly professional in approach, but also had a very warm and supportive nature. She made sure everyone felt comfortable with the pace of the workshop and was happy to answer any and all questions we had for her.
Sarah’s passion for what she did was very clear, and this enthusiasm transcended to everyone participating.
Charlotte Kelberg
Young Lions Coordinator, Youth Programs for White Lion - White Lion
When asked to arrange training for middle managers lacking these skills and confidence, I looked for an external public speaking professional to assist.
Sarah customised a 3 stage program for us and was extremely flexible in arranging delivery of training to fit in with our upcoming Conference.
All staff who attended improved their skills very quickly but most importantly all reported a massive shift in confidence and self-belief. As expressed by one participant: “I now know that I can do this.”
I recommend Sarah highly.
