Get clients, investments and influence by speaking confidently | Public Speaking Coach for entrepreneurs and execs | ex-Fortune 50 | My featured section has a gift for you.

You know who gets the most clients and promotions?

The person who can speak the best.

You might be an expert in your domain.
But if you don't speak with confidence, no one will trust you.

Your career and business will suffer because you struggle to speak powerfully.

Your next client will go to the person who presents better than you.
Your next promotion will go to the person who communicates better than you.
Your investor might pass because they are not convinced of your value and worth.

You’ll feel weak and powerless.

It’s crazy because you have a lot to share with the world.

But your speaking skills let you down.

Here’s the good news:
It doesn’t have to be like that.

Now imagine:
You ace sales calls and win dream projects because you speak with confidence.
You get that promotion because you present with clarity in the boardroom.
You build a powerful brand because the world listens when you speak.

I can help you get there.

I’ve helped 500+ entrepreneurs and execs become confident and effective speakers.

• Entrepreneurs like Wes, who had stage fright and went blank when he was in the spotlight.

• VPs like Sarah, whose voice shook every time she presented in the boardroom. But became a confident speaker working with me and secured 2 leads worth $350,000 for her company.

• LinkedIn creators like Jasmin Alić, Ruben Hassid, Lara Acosta, Sophie Miller, Nigel Thomas, Nicholas Boucher, and Mando Sallavanti III who now speak on big stages with credibility, authority, and influence.

I can help you become a confident, powerful speaker too.

Public Speaking Coach for stage and camera

I coach entrepreneurs and execs on how to speak on camera with maximum impact, create a powerful brand and grow professionally.

Your body language can break your confidence.

Here’s how to fix it:

The way you stand.
The way you move your hands.
And even the way you make eye contact.

It can make or break your message.

Here's how you can master your body language:

→ On camera:

Make eye contact with the camera.
Use gestures intentionally for emphasis.
Frame yourself at eye-level to convey confidence.

→ In person or on stage:

Keep your feet shoulder-width apart to project stability.
Move purposefully to keep your audience engaged.
Use open gestures to convey your authority.

Remember,
Your body speaks louder than your words.

Master body language to become unforgettable.

June 2022: I got accepted to speak at TEDx.

But it made me feel like an imposter.

I kept thinking:

“They’ve made a mistake.”
“I don’t belong on that stage.”
”What the heck did I get myself into?”

But I said yes anyway.
Now that talk has opened doors I couldn’t have dreamed of.

→ Building a coaching business to multiple 6-figures
→ Coaching CEOs to speak to 10,000+ people
→ Leading a Mastermind event in London

But none of that would’ve happened if I had said no.

This year can pass quietly.

Or it can be the year you act big even if you’re scared.

It’s your decision.

PS - Have you ever felt like an imposter stepping into something bigger? yes/no?

Women are judged before they even speak.

(How I deal with this as a brown woman)

Men are (usually) heard.
Women are (usually) evaluated.

Too much makeup.
Too little makeup.
Too covered up.
Too revealing.
Too much.

So advice like
“Just be confident”
falls flat.

Here’s what actually helps.

Don’t try to be liked.
Aim to be clear.

Say your point early.
State it once.
Then pause.

No more over-explaining.
No more “softening” your tone.
Just calmness, conciseness, clarity.  

And then watch all the judgement fall away.

PS ever felt judged no matter what your gender is?

I’ve spoken on stages for 17 years (including TEDx).

Here’s the most powerful trick I’ve learned:

How to pause.

This video shows you the magical power of the pause.

(And I’ve created this Power Pause guide to show you exactly when to pause: https://lnkd.in/d7Y2UtTB)

Pause to become more powerful in the room.

P.S. Do you pause intentionally?

The world's top 1% leaders don't speak to "inform".

They speak to "connect". This is how:

When you speak to just "inform":

- You’re on auto-pilot.
- You don’t sound engaging.
- People tune out, your message is lost.

In this video I show you how to speak to connect.

So you keep the audience hooked till the last word.

Follow me Nausheen I. Chen to never miss a speaking tip.

P.S. Where will you speak next?

Stop using exploitative language in job ads!

“Going the extra mile", "working non-typical hours":

These are thinly veiled words to give the company an excuse to exploit people.

- When it says: “go the extra mile”
It actually means: “work beyond your scope”.

- When it says: “work non-typical hours”
It actually means: “work overtime without complains”.

I’m coaching a client to speak well in interviews -
And this language immediately stood out.

Language reflects culture.

When the job ad sounds exploitative,
That’s what the actual job will be too.

If you want to fix your culture, prevent toxicity and retain people for longer -

Use words that respect employees, not exploit them.

PS - ever come across job ads like these?

I created LinkedIn’s first course on AI and public speaking.

But here’s where you should not use AI:

Look, I love AI.

But this MIT study shows that relying on AI:

→ Decreases your brain connectivity.
→ Weakens your memory.
→ Makes you less creative.

This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t use AI.

But use it to enhance your creativity.

Not outsource it.

Here’s my take as a public speaking coach:

→ Always come up with the key ideas yourself.
→ Use AI to critique and build on your ideas.
→ AI becomes your co-creator, not your ghostwriter.

You bring the personality, ideas, stories.

AI enhances and packages it.

Win-win.

P.S. Do you use AI for presentations? Yes/no?

My entire life, I thought I was going to be a Doctor just like my father.
 
Then in 2017, I realized it wasn't my passion.
 
So, I decided to end my pre-medicine college track.
 
But, before I could, I had to have a plan.
 
My dad grew his medicine practice by building relationships and grow by word of mouth.
 
These same relationships he built were the foundation for me to seek help and learn about other career paths.
 
So, I started calling his network.
 
The second call I made was to his financial planner, Timmy.
 
Timmy taught me that there's 3 things everybody thinks about before they fall asleep.
 
1st: Did I hurt anyone today? If so, you can talk to someone about that.
 
2nd: Am I healthy? If not, you can call your doctor tomorrow - that's my Dad.
 
3rd: Have I made the right financial decisions for my family? That's where I come in.
 
I'm okay with batting 3rd in that lineup.
 
Since that day, I've spent my time simplifying financial decisions for my clients.
 
How I can help you:

➡️Review every year because life happens and things change
➡️Feel confident to make difficult financial decisions
➡️Develop a simple, implementable financial plan
➡️Hold you accountable to your goals

My results:

➡️The best 1st year my agency has ever seen in its 130+ year history
➡️Rookie of the year 2021
➡️New Advisor of the year 2021
➡️Over 100 households (and counting) receiving my help & expertise

Build generational wealth without the money stress | Financial Advisor for Big Tech (Paycom, Oracle, Salesforce) | Top 25 MassMutual Financial Advisor (2024)

You closed $4M in deals this year. You hit President's Club. 

You're making $500K... Why's your bank account look the same as 3 years ago?

Let me guess:

→ $80K commission check hit last month - already gone
→ RSUs vesting quarterly, no idea if you should sell
→ Owed $40K in taxes you weren't expecting
→ Looking at houses you can't tell if you can afford
→ Spouse is stressed about money even though you're crushing quota
→ You're one bad quarter away from serious financial stress

You're a B2B Sales Leader at a high-growth tech company.
You close seven-figure deals for your company.
You advise C-suite executives on complex buying decisions.

But your own finances are in total chaos.

Here's why:

Traditional financial advice doesn't work for enterprise sales.

"Just save 20% and max your 401k" doesn't mean anything when:

Your income swings $50K month-to-month
You have RSUs, ESPP, commission, or bonuses all hitting at different times
Your "income" includes stock that might be up 30% or down 20%
You're taxed at rates that nobody explains properly

You don't need a financial advisor who works with "high earners."

You need someone who works with sales leaders who live in your world.

That's us.

We work with Sales Leaders at B2B SaaS and Tech companies.

Here's what we do:

Phase 1: Stop the Bleeding

→ Commission cash flow system (capture money before it disappears)
→ RSU strategy (minimize the tax hit or concentration when vested)
→ Protection planning (life, disability - so your family is covered)

Phase 2: Build the Buffer

→ Build emergency fund (handle slow quarters without panic)
→ Automate commission capture (money builds wealth before spending)
→ Know what you can actually afford (house, cars, private school - no guessing)

Phase 3: Build Real Wealth

→ Diversify beyond company stock (systematic selling, no emotion)
→ Tax planning with your CPA (keep more of what you earn within your control)
→ Build multiple income streams (not 100% dependent on quota)

The outcome we plan for?

You're not just making money. 
You're keeping it.

You're not just hitting quota. 
You're building generational wealth.

You're not stressed about the next deal. 
You have OPTIONS.

THAT is your Freedom Path.

If you're crushing quota and tired of feeling broke, let's fix that.
