Zero to Keynote Workshop

Make Every Talk a Keynote — From Idea to Impact

You’re on stage, the audience is with you, and your message lands. It feels incredible. But the truth is, what makes that moment possible isn’t just what happens on stage — it’s everything that happens before you step up there.

Zero to Keynote is a hands-on, full-day workshop that takes you from blank page to confident delivery, based on the same proven system behind my book and popular training sessions. Whether it’s your first talk or your first keynote, this workshop gives you the tools to craft, rehearse, and deliver presentations that captivate and inspire.

There's also a book if you'd like to buy this for yourself, or for your team
