The Speaker Sisterhood has expanded to Pennsylvania and we want you, lovely lady, to be part of an empowered group of women who practice the art of public speaking together!

I spent a large part of my early career delivering workshops and creating presentations to small, large, local, regional and international audiences. When I pivoted to run my career coaching business full-time, I saw an opportunity to share my knowledge through speaking engagements. I took Angela Lussier’s Speaking School for Women and blossomed! Due to my success, I decided to launch a club in the place I call home, the Lehigh Valley, and invite you to join me on this journey.We will:- Exhume and exalt our extraordinary.- Share our stories, talents, challenges and triumphs with each other, creating a bond like no other that will take you through the public speaking experience.- Be willing, vulnerable and simultaneously powerful in developing the skills necessary to speak up. The more we practice speaking up and speaking out the better we will be advocating for what we and others need.- Help us all to feel what we have inside and out is all that is needed and is enough.Nervous?
