She spent over twenty years in the rooms where communication actually matters.

As a television producer at ITV and ITN, Sarah Collins briefed celebrities, handled sensitive case studies and prepared experts, spokespeople and public figures to speak on camera. She watched hands trembling with notes. She felt the gap between the time available and the support people genuinely needed. And she decided to do something about it.

Now a speaking coach and media mentor, Sarah works with founders and organisations to help them use their voice — on camera, on stage, on podcasts, in the media — with the confidence and coherence that builds authority faster than almost anything else.

In this conversation with Jenni Parker Brown, Sarah goes deep on why speaking is one of the most intimate acts of communication available to a founder. Why the nerves never fully go away — even for the most experienced people in the room — and why understanding that is actually one of the most liberating things a founder can know. Why actors who perform for a living often struggle most when asked to simply talk about themselves. And why authority is not claimed. It is heard.

The conversation also moves through the full picture of what Sarah calls the communication ecosystem — image, energy, posture, gesture, presence — and connects with Jenni's own conviction that the most powerful first impression a founder makes is visual. What follows — the voice, the words, the message — either confirms or contradicts everything the image has already communicated.

The conversation closes with a challenge. To Jenni, to every founder listening, to anyone who has been putting off showing up on video, on stage, on a podcast.

Nobody is going to give you permission to use your voice.

You have to give it to yourself.
