Founder

Your One Marketing Coach

I believe every entrepreneur needs a LinkedIn strategy. I don't just care about marketing I care about you!

Starland Supply (2000) Ltd

I worked as the sales leader and marketing director at Starland Supply. This role had me working with people every day. So it was a great opportunity to grow and polish my leadership skills.

Sales And Marketing Specialist

Eagle Automotive Center

I managed the day-to-day operations of Eagle Automotive's autobody division. In this position, I was working with clients, insurance companies, and employees every day. So here I took my PR skills to the next level.

AutoBody Shop Manager

Private Christian School

I was the lead teacher at a small Christian school. My classroom was the homeroom for grades 7-10. I viewed my role not only as a teacher but as a leader and role model for my students.

My business is to help independent auto body shops dominate online and serve more people. | Founder of BodyShop Marketing | Follower of Jesus | Husband & Dad 4x

Back in the early 80’s my daddy started an autobody shop in central British Columbia, Canada. Our shop had its humble beginnings right on the ranch that I grew up on. My daddy was a hard-working man that needed a way to support his family, so he learned the autobody trade and got to work fixing cars in the ranch shop. God blessed our family and the business grew so much that they needed to add on to the shop a couple of times to keep up with demand. Of course, this shop would become a second home to me while I worked, played, and grew up there.
 
By the early 90’s the shop on the ranch was bursting at the seams. It was time to find a bigger and better location. The shop was then moved to a new shop in our town and it’s actually still there today. 

I started managing the autobody shop in 2013. I wore many hats in the shop: customer service, shop management, parts ordering, insurance negotiations, and floor sweeper. Whatever needed to be done, I tackled it head-on. I knew that it was the customers that kept the lights turned on, so I made sure customer service was our number one priority. In 2021 I chose to move on and pursue other ventures, but I look back on my years of management and feel blessed for the opportunity. I learned so many lessons on the floor of that shop, and now I’m using them to serve my marketing customers. I understand the hard work that goes into running a successful autobody shop. I understand the pain that the industry is facing. But I believe that every independent shop has the right to be full of cars and be supported by their local communities.
 
My years of growing up on the ranch and helping around the autobody shop helped shape who I am today. I was raised on hard work, respect, integrity, and humility. One of my daddy’s sayings still sticks with me today, “Don’t stand around with your hands in your pockets”. So, this is how I operate BodyShop Marketing. Let’s get after it! 

Let’s chat today and see if there is any way I can support you and your shop!

Adding Sparkle to Your Speeches | I help CEOs and Speakers develop and deliver compelling speeches | Public Speaking Coach & Consultant | Public Speaking Workshops | Speaker | Entrepreneur

Hi, I’m Eva—owner of The Speak Shop.

I coach CEOs, leaders, and professional speakers to craft and deliver speeches that captivate audiences and elevate their influence.

For two decades, I worked behind the scenes with bestselling authors, pastors, innovators, and change-makers—producing broadcasts, podcasts, YouTube shows, and writing speeches that reached millions. Along the way, I learned a simple truth:

👉 Even the world’s best speakers have a communication expert in their corner.

That’s where I come in.

You’re too close to your own content to see what works (and what doesn’t). I give you the direct, honest feedback most people won’t—and then coach you to deliver with confidence, clarity, and authenticity. I’m not swayed by titles, fame, or status. My only focus: helping you become unforgettable on stage.

What I’m most passionate about:
✨ Sharpening your thought-leadership so your give the talk only you can give 
✨ Turning your stories into sticky, powerful moments that audiences remember
✨ Helping you weave in humor so your message lands with impact and personality

The result? More standing ovations. Longer book-signing lines. Bigger impact. And yes—more paid speaking opportunities.

Because here’s what I believe: You have a message the world needs. And with the right coaching, you can become the most engaging and sought-after thought leader in your space.

I work with clients 1:1 and also train teams in the art of public speaking.

But don’t just take it from me. Dave Ramsey once said:

“Eva helped me and The Ramsey Personalities with talks for several years while on our team. She is smart, energetic, creative, and fun to work with developing world-class communication!”

Contact me so we can help YOU become a world-class communicator too: eva@thespeakshop.com

For the first three years of my business I worked from my laundry room on an old Mac computer.

A “standing desk” meant flipping over a laundry hamper.

Every time I had to pee I would either have to crawl under the desk or move it out of the way.

I used to post about it. I thought it was hilarious and it was my Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, or Dave Ramsey in a garage or folding table humble beginnings story.

But then an internet jerk literally said that if I couldn’t afford an office maybe I wasn’t ready to start a business. 😵‍💫🤯😳.

I’m not sure why it insulted me so much but I have to say I love proving people wrong. 

Usually when I start new jobs or things I feel totally underestimated.

I now make 3x more what I was working my last job and believe I’m just getting started.

Now, I have an awesome home office. Complete with a Dolly poster and a copy of the Man in the Arena (the GOAT of speeches).

I still can’t quite figure out how to arrange books by color. 😅

I’m not telling you this to brag…my house is still small and my 7 year old now gets to share a room with her 4 year old brother (she is underwhelmed and suggested I put him in the laundry room 😂). 

I tell you this to inspire you to hold on to your humble beginnings. Everyone has one. Take more pictures of it. Keep going. And don’t let internet jerks get you down.

What was your laundry room moment or environment? I’d love to hear about it.

Today is my 43rd birthday — but it was on the cusp of my 40th that I had a catalyst moment.

I was in the middle of a long run, training for a half marathon, listening to The Power of Regret by Daniel Pink. In it, he shared survey results from over 18,000 people on their biggest life regrets.

The biggest finding?
People usually regret more the things they didn’t do than the things they did do.

It stopped me dead in my tracks.

It’s not that the concept was new — but that day, I heard it in a new way. 

And I knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I was going to quit my job and take a bet on myself.

I’d spent way too much of my 20s and 30s chasing other people’s dreams and expectations for my life.
I let insecurities make my choices.
I let comparison steal a lot of my joy.

Both of those decades are gone.

Now, I’m squarely in my 40s — and so far, I love it  (even if half of all conversations with friends now revolve around supplements and how we need to do more strength training. 😄)

I’ve found more of myself in the last few years.

Sometimes I wonder if most of our lives are just spent discovering and rediscovering who we are — and who we were always meant to be.

So today, and in the year to come, I’m leaning into what I’m calling my decade of “Yes.”

Yes to risk.
Yes to generosity.
Yes to new dreams.
Yes to living lighter.
Yes to new opportunities.
Yes to seeing more of the world.
Yes to the work that lights me up.
Yes to creating what I wish existed.
Yes to more wonder and less worry.
Yes to showing up before I feel ready.
Yes to starting over — again and again.
Yes to voices that make me think bigger.
Yes to what scares me because it matters.
Yes to growth that doesn’t look glamorous.
Yes to fewer “shoulds” and more “want tos.”
Yes to being honest about what I really want.
Yes to grace for who I was and who I’m becoming.

16  years ago while writing wedding vows I came across a poem by Robert Browning that I love and always find fitting on birthdays:

“Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
the last of life, for which the first was made.
Our times are in His hand who saith,
‘A whole I planned, youth shows but half;
Trust God: see all, nor be afraid!’”

Here’s to 43! 🥳 

P.S. If you didn’t know it was my birthday, that’s okay! I’ll be accepting congratulatory remarks and gifts all month long. 

P.P.S. Did I do this post as a shameless plug for more birthday wishes? Absolutely. I am the youngest of three and according to my sisters will never change. 😆 

I'd love to hear from you in the comments...what have you learned about aging but more importantly living?

You shouldn't be spending 15 hours to prepare a 5 minute presentation.

And let's face it, out here in the real world often you're told today that you're presenting tomorrow morning (or this afternoon).

Instead of freaking out, ask a few questions and use my SPARK framework to outline your talk.

You'll still need to develop out the content and practice the delivery, but you can create a well-ordered presentation on a tight deadline. 

Your time is too valuable to be spinning your wheels for hours trying to organize what you're trying to say.

In this carousel I give you a few questions and the SPARK framework you can use the next time you're on a tight deadline.

What do you think is needed to write a speech faster?

How to Create a Presentation Faster

I’ve spent the last few days at a Women Doing Well event in Jackson Hole, WY and it’s been amazing!

It was fun to connect with a former client Julie Wilson, a few members of my Speak School membership including Mary Shaw, Jean Park, and Cindy Halsted, and meet so many other amazing women like AJ Bishop-Andrews, Ruth Malhotra, and DeLayna Michele Elliott.  

One of my biggest takeaways from the conference is that generosity is the key that unlocks your life’s purpose.

(And a huge highlight was hiking in the Grand Tetons!)

I’d love to hear from you—what’s been one of the highlights of your week?

Last night it was fabulous to see my client Kristin Parks crush it on the stage at the Show Hope fellowship weekend.

Founded by Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman, Show Hope does amazing work to provide adoption aid grants, pre and post adoption support, and medical care grants.

This was my third year getting to work with Kristin for this event and it’s been awesome to see her grow as a speaker.

(It’s also a fun event filled with live music and so much more! I always get so caught up in the event I forget to take many pictures 😅).

A lot of my life looks like zooms with clients or watching them speak on stages.

Some days are out of the box.

Today was one of those where I got to lean back on the 15 years I spent in radio and podcasting. 

It was amazing working with Theresa Harper Bruno recording a couple episodes of her show. 

(Also fun to meet Lindsay Lawler and Dave Barnes and to see the Dark Horse recording studios!).

Today made me miss my first professional love of producing interviews deep in my soul.

Radio. Podcasts. Interviews. All will forever be my first professional love.

I’d love to hear from you, what was your first professional love?

Want to know one thing GREAT speakers do?

They speak with vocal variety.

They don't speak too fast and they don't speak in monotones. 

They understand things like volume, pitch, and tone. 

The good news is this is something we can all learn. 

But...how do you add it and where do you put it?

In this carousel I share seven ways you can add vocal variety to your presentation. 

I'd love to hear from you - do you struggle with adding vocal variety to your talk? How do you add it?

Vocal Variety 

I recently began working with a new client, and we started where a lot of my clients start: with a blank page and tons of ideas.

In his case, he has years of newsletter content, podcast episodes, and even a book.

He asked me, “Where do I even start?!”

He was overwhelmed.

I get it.

You may have a lot to work with (like my client does), or maybe you’ve been asked to speak on something and you're drawing a blank.

Maybe you have months to prepare, or maybe you only have an hour.
Regardless of your situation, you have to start with a brainstorm.

The question is, what does that even look like?

How do you have a productive brainstorm that leads to clarity and great supporting content?

That's what this carousel is all about. 

I'd love to hear from you...what does your brainstorming process look like?

How to Brainstorm a Speech

I'm hiring for a part time (10 hrs/week) digital ops and admin wizard to help me. 

My current and fabulous Kate W. is stepping into a new season of spending more time with her kids. It's amazing for her and totally devastating for me! 

I'm not over it. But after living in denial for a hot second I'm now posting the opening here. 

If you think this is for you or someone you know please send your resume to Kate (email at the bottom of the image). 

Thank you all!

The last thing any audience wants to hear is you bragging on yourself and dropping your resume in a speech.

But you can drop your expertise in a way that feels like it’s more about the audience—and the journey life has taken you on to better serve and help them—than it is about your success.

How to do this well can be tricky. 

I’ve spent hours wrestling through this with my clients and finally came up with what I call an authority statement.

I’ll be breaking this all down in my newsletter tomorrow complete with a template you can use to craft yours.

I’d love to hear from you…how do you drop your credibility in your speaking?

Hi, I’m Eva.
I help CEOs, teams, and professional speakers develop and deliver compelling speeches. Need help? Send me a DM!

Giving a speech by yourself can be hard but you're in control. Giving a speech with someone else can bring on another whole set of challenges. 

Over the years, I’ve worked with a lot of dual presenters. Here’s what I know: Co-presenting can be the worst, but it can also be the best.

After all, when you co-present you have the opportunity to share the weight of a great presentation with someone else. You learn how to better collaborate, you’re able to bring more dimension and depth to the topic, you can bring your audience more perspective.

On top of all that, you have a built-in accountability partner to run your content through for feedback and to level up your own speaking skills.

So, how do you do it? How do you create a great co-presentation that leaves the audience (and you!) wanting more?

This carousel breaks down the dos and don’ts.

I'd love to hear from you what do you think makes a great co-presentation?
