Your Journey to Captivating Audiences is Here
Join us for 1 full day (October 10, 2024), at the Citrus Club in Downtown Orlando, Florida.
The purpose of the workshop is to dramatically improve your delivery, storytelling, performance, and stage presence with hands-on exercises and practice (and have fun while doing so!).
Your coaches, Carol Cox and Diane Diaz, will lead you through exercises and lots of practice with real-time feedback and adjustment.
We'll also have a professional photographer there to capture you speaking on the stage, so you'll have photos for your website and social media.
If you want to get higher-profile and higher-paid speaking engagements, improving your delivery skills is a must. Plus, you will build so much confidence.

What Past Attendees Said
I wanted to tell you how your retreat helped me. Well, I KILLED IT at the workshop I just facilitated at my most prestigious venue yet. People told me how warm and charismatic I was. Charismatic isn't something I normally hear. One guy even flew in from overseas for the weekend and said it was even better than he expected when he booked the trip.
Obviously I bring two decades of experience to the table and have spoken on stages before, but never with this sense of ease and confidence, and never with so much of my personality shining through.
After getting on stage over and over in front of you and such an incredible and supportive group of women, I not only got comfortable in my own skin but I discovered strengths I didn’t know I had. This time, without even thinking about it, I was able to move around the room and take up space and just be so much more confident and me than I would have otherwise.
To be honest, although I was proud of myself after the retreat, I left feeling like I didn't want to do that again and that being a "speaker" isn't my thing. I still felt leading workshops was right, but when people said when they got up on stage, they felt like they wanted to do that every day for the rest of their life, I was like WHAT?! Not me! Then, after I finished leading that workshop, I absolutely thought this is what I want to do every day for the rest of my life. I suddenly got exactly what those other women were saying.
Thanks for that push! I knew intuitively that I needed to do your retreat, and now I know why.
— Tiffany Hawk, Author, Book Coach, and Speaker
The Speaking Your Brand retreat was a catalyst to upleveling my in person speaking. Being on stage and getting feedback is invaluable.
I feel more confident in bringing in my story thanks to the practice and feedback. I am so inspired by the amazing women who gathered together. I learned not only from their different speaking styles, but also from their inspiring messages!
— Katie Anderson
I learned SOOO much from both Carol and Diane and from each of the women at this event. I got to see such unique speaking styles and more importantly, I got to hear their stories and messages which opened my eyes to so many ways that we can all work together to change the world for good."

This retreat made me feel more confident in my abilities and how to market my talks."
— Dr. Christina Madison, PharmD
All the training was perfect and actionable. I feel empowered! Practicing your talk sooner and often helps to 10x it faster.
— Dianna Deeney
I feel more confident about my skills and I love feeling closely connected to a group of speakers."
— Mary Beth Simon
This was such a fantastic experience. Getting guidance on stage presence along with honing in on the message and then group feedback gave me more confidence as a speaker and coach. The exercises were fun and creative and then having the opportunity to put it all together for a video was the icing on the cake. You don't want to miss this opportunity to work with Carol and Diane who are experts in what they teach and they also walk their talk.
