How I Accidentally Became a Communication Coach (and Started Helping Women Land Jobs)

I didn’t set out to help women speak with power and presence.

I was a just a singing and music teacher — and a passionate one.
My focus was helping people reclaim their voices through song…

But something surprising started happening:

🎤 My voice students were showing up to lessons saying things like:

  • “I finally stood up for myself in a meeting.”

  • “I told my partner how I really felt — and I didn’t cry or shut down.”

  • “I have a job interview coming up… can you help me prepare?”

At first, it was just simple voice warmups before their interviews or presentations. But then it became something deeper — coaching them through how to stay grounded, how to calm their nerves, how to project without shrinking, and most of all how to communicate with presence, clarity, and authenticity.

And that’s how my career as a voice teacher quietly turned into a communication coaching practice with a 100% success rate. ✨ Yep! Every single client I’ve worked with for interview prep has landed the job!!

  • Some doubled their income.

  • Some were offered positions before the final interview.

  • One was so impressive, they created a new role just for her.

  • And all of them walked away saying, “I felt more like myself in that room than I ever have before.”

🗣️ Introducing: Speak Like You Mean It

What began organically has become one of my most transformational offerings.

Speak Like You Mean It is my private 1:1 coaching program for ambitious women who are ready to:

  • Be heard without having to raising their voice

  • Speak with confidence — without faking it

  • Lead conversations, interviews, and moments that matter with authenticity

  • Stop fumbling their words or second-guessing themselves in rooms where they deserve to shine

This isn’t traditional public speaking coaching.
It’s nervous-system-informed, voice-rooted, body-led authentic communication work.

And it works.

💬 Who It's For

  • Professionals preparing for job interviews, presentations, or big transitions

  • Women in male-dominated spaces who want to speak as themselves

  • Sensitive souls who want their voice to reflect their strength

  • Leaders, creatives, and students who want to show up with clarity and calm

🌿 What I Bring to Each Session

I bring a rare blend of training and lived experience into this work —
with a background in music education, classical voice, business (USC), years of acting classes & public speaking practice, performance, yoga, nervous system regulation, and over a decade of helping people connect their voice to their truth.

Each session combines:

  • Vocal technique rooted in breath and body

  • Nervous system support so your voice doesn’t shake under pressure

  • Embodiment tools to help you stop overthinking and speak from grounded presence

  • Real-time coaching to practice exactly what you need: interviews, presentations, conversations, or high-stakes moments

This is not about sounding or being perfect — it’s about showing up fully as YOU!
