"This program gave me something crucial: a renewed confidence in using my voice"
The momentum it sparked
I joined this program because I felt deeply curious about how Speaking & Influence could transform the way I communicate and help me express myself more confidently — not only on stage, but also in the digital spaces where so much of today’s influence lives.
I wanted to build the foundation that would eventually allow me to speak publicly, share my ideas widely, and elevate my storytelling so it can reach and inspire more people.
What I found inside this program was more impactful than I expected. The Story Mapping, the Holodeck, and the focus on speaking with real authenticity became tools I now naturally think about whenever I communicate — whether in conversations, presentations, or when imagining what I want to share with a larger audience.
Eric’s teaching deeply resonated with me. His commitment to creating a space of freedom, clarity, and expression made me realize how powerful it is when someone speaks from their true center. This aligns with my own personal values, and it’s encouraged me to show up more courageously in my life.
Even though I haven’t yet stepped fully into public speaking, this program gave me something crucial: a renewed confidence in using my voice, a clearer sense of my message, and the understanding of how to communicate in a way that feels genuinely me.
Practicing with people from different backgrounds was one of the highlights. Seeing how others grew, how they expressed themselves, and how they shared their achievements was incredibly inspiring — it made me feel even more excited about contributing more, sharing more, and being part of this supportive creative community.
This experience has sparked new momentum in me. I feel ready to take what I’ve learned and start expressing my voice more consistently, especially through storytelling, creativity, and meaningful communication. These tools aren’t just lessons — they’ve become part of how I want to show up, amplify my impact, and continue evolving in a way that is visible, confident, and authentic.
I’m genuinely grateful for this journey and excited for the next chapter of my growth.
