Stories from Linda Clemons’s students

I could help others become visible while staying invisible myself. That paradox defined my career.

I stopped waiting to feel ready. I pressed record while I was still scared, again and again, and every time I showed up, the fear had a little less say... we don't have the right to keep our voice and our message to ourselves because of fear.

It isn't just making me a better speaker, it's helping me clean up my overall message and step into the version of myself I've been building toward for years... It unlocked a whole creative wave. Courses, programs, my talks, my storytelling, everything feels more intentional and more me... The book isn't just a book anymore; it's becoming a foundational piece of a much bigger vision and yes a movement. And that's because this program helped me find the voice that was already inside me, I just hadn't tuned it properly.

I came into Speaking Mastery wanting to become a better speaker. I walked out with a deeper understanding of who I am, what my message is, and what becomes possible when you stop playing small and commit at the highest level... He stretched me, challenged me, and showed me what world-class leadership truly looks like - the kind that doesn't just teach you... it transforms you.

I could talk about my biological age test or my protocols, yet I couldn't articulate these stories in a way that truly landed with audiences, investors, or even my own team... I can now share my origin story - and the many stories around it - in a way that connects, whether on stage, in fundraising, or in conversations with clients.

Eric showed us the power of story telling, and after getting two coaching segments with him (my new claim to fame) I am now working to wrap people in the conversation, and know its ok to bring some funny experiences into the talk. Since the programme ended I have launched my second book and now look to build my platform talking about grief through my Youtube Channel.

The program allowed me the freedom and ability to really express myself with authenticity, emotion and feeling so that I can now really connect with those that I am speaking to on a level that is felt not just heard... I am now able to understand the profound effect of being a good public speaker and I have the tools to continue improving and mastering for a lifetime.

I discovered my speaking identity. I learned how I naturally express myself, how my message wants to move, and what feels true in my body when I speak... Now I don't just know how to speak. I know how to speak as myself - on any stage or in any setting.
