How To Be Heard

Deputy CEO

Hi! We're Lauren &amp; Michael, and we understand. Not long ago, we felt unheard and overlooked - at work, in our relationships, and with our family and friends. No matter how good our ideas are, or how hard we try, our voices are passed over again and again. We wasted years feeling frustrated and resentful. The only way out seemed to be to either A) Accept the situation and hold a secret grudge or B) Put on an extroverted mask, becoming someone I'm not. We felt stuck. After years of burnout, we've finally found a better way. Grounded in neuroscience, How To Be Heard explains why we struggle to speak up (hint - there's nothing wrong with you!) and pairs that awareness with somatic tools to release the self-hatred and shame keeping you from finally moving forward. We created this course because we believe that what helped us can help you too. Communicate effectively while staying true to who you are. Your thoughts and ideas will finally be given the attention they deserve. You’ll be able to walk into any meeting and share your vision - calmly and clearly. You can talk to anybody - even your boss's boss - without the sticky palms or shaky voice. Instead, you’ll be calm and relaxed, because you know exactly how to get your point across naturally and effectively.&nbsp; Imagine what that kind of confidence could do for your career &amp; your life! Get ready for a transformational experience, guided by a fellow introvert. Someone who’s been able to channel their introverted superpowers to succeed, while staying true to their authentic self. How To Be Heard is designed to strengthen your voice in the workplace and in life.

Hope for thoughtful people trapped in a noisy world
