Public Speaking Coaching? Here’s What It Means to Me

Yesterday began with the incredible thrill of hearing myself quoted by WNYC’s Brian Lehrer.
WNYC is our local NPR station. It has roughly a million unique listeners every week — more than any other public radio station in the U.S. (maybe the world!) — and popular morning host Brian Lehrer kicked off his show on coaching with this:

People have been writing already on [coaching], on a wide range of what a coach can mean to our lives. One public speaking coach, Jezra Kaye from Speak Up for Success, writes to us about her approach and says, for her as a coach, “Public speaking isn’t really about presentations. It’s about your right to be heard, and your mission in life, what you’re here to say.” So we can take this in many directions.
