"Thanks to Eric's training, I was able to deliver a talk in front of 800 people that truly resonated with the audience and had a real impact"

I had the great opportunity to attend the public speaking training by Eric Edmeades several years ago. 
Before that, I definitely wasn't comfortable speaking to larger audiences or speaking on stages. 

Right after attending the training, I had the perfect opportunity, as I was put on the stage in front of 800 people for my very first speaking engagement. 
Looking back at it, I can say that it was definitely thanks to everything that Eric teaches at his trainings that I was able to do that. Not just go on a stage and give a talk, but to go on a stage and give a talk that really resonates with the people and has an impact on the audience, which was so important to me personally. 

Ever since then, I've been able to be on several stages internationally and also in my home country, Estonia, sharing the stage with people that I could only dream of sharing the stage with. 
So going through this training had a profound impact on my life. Not only professionally, but I also feel that it can have such a massive impact on our daily lives in interactions with anyone around us. I truly feel that it has significantly elevated both me personally and my life as a whole
