Speaking is one of our greatest powers as humans, it is also one of our greatest fears. Many of us, especially Women, are terrified to use our voices in all matter of situations after centuries of being told we're unworthy to do so. How can Women come to reclaim, embrace, and use their voices? My guest this week, Jen Oliver, has created a vibrant business around doing just that. Jen is a speaking and communications coach and podcaster - equipping women to speak with greater impact and presence. Her approach is highly connective, collaborative, and customized. She teaches Women how to communicate REAL – in a way that is Relational, Engaging, Authentic, and Life-Altering. Her coaching goes beyond the stage and accolades. She equips her clients with tools to speak with impact in any aspect of life.

On this guest episode, Jen beautifully shares about helping women to speak from their truest voice, coaching them in all types of scenarios from big stages to having a voice in their own home. Together we share our love for speaking and sharing our voices (we're both podcast hots!) and discuss the life events that can cause reluctance to be heard. Jen explains how too many women suffer dis-ease when they remain silent, people please, sugar coat or just divert and get performative. Many of us were raised to do this - culturally or as a survival mechanism, and she was one of them. Jen tells us how her work as a speaking coach addresses helping people heal and build self confidence. Jen offers stories of how she has seen over and over - women who are liberated in their voices are happier, healthier, & more prosperous in their work life and enjoy richer relationships. Without fail.
