Speaking Academy

This is a Life-Changing event!

I arrived at Speaking Academy expecting a skills-development intensive — a place to refine my craft and become a better speaker. What I received was so much more. 
It was a life-changing adventure that invited me to peel back all the carefully constructed layers I’d built over the years and reconnect with the truth of who I am. It helped me find my voice, reclaim my story, and remember the power that has always lived inside me.
Eric is pure magic. He holds you with such tenderness while challenging you with such fierce love that you cannot help but evolve. In five days, you don’t just become a better speaker. You become a NEW human. 
Everything in this experience is intentionally designed to guide you back to your essence. The incredible team that supports your unfolding, the masterfully curated tribe that walks by your side, the laughter, the dance, the tears… all of it gently unravels you until only your truth remains.
You leave remembering that your story matters. That your life carries meaning. That every single one of us holds something unique that can uplift, inspire, and heal others — and that when we share from the heart, we help change the world.
To Vishen — thank you from the bottom of my heart for gifting me this experience. Your generosity opened a door that forever changed my life, and I’m deeply grateful for the way you champion growth, courage, and human transformation.
I genuinely wish everyone could experience this. Speaking Academy isn’t only for speakers. It’s for anyone who wants to grow, to open, to step into their fullness, and to become a better human.

I had a fear of public speaking, probably more than I had admitted to myself. It had a huge impact on me, but what was interesting is that after joining the program with Eric, I realized that my public speaking skills were not up to par for what I needed in my job and what I wanted to do....
