Renee turned her lifelong love for speaking and educating to mentoring, coaching, and training individuals, teams, and organizations to improve their sales and leadership skills, by discovering, developing, and amplifying their voice, the most important instrument we were given.

We have been conditioned, especially throughout school and in our careers, to get our presentations done and over with. Yet most people throughout every industry are still simply presenting. This is because most people simply share their message and hope that it will land for their audiences. Having the ability to take your message, while being able to transform your experience with them, through your voice, so that your audience will step into that message with you, is where authentic connection happens as a Speaker.
