Rave Reviews from Coaches

“Real Speaking is just that: a real and authentic process that allows one to get to the heart of the matter. Sounds simple enough, but don’t be misled, our hearts are so protected and covered over with hurts and pains they are often hard to access. Gail has a safe and unique way of supporting each participant to go deep and open the window to let out and let in the yearnings of the heart’s desire. What a gift!”

“I’ve done a lot of speaking; I’ve never done anything like this. Gail is the surgeon of speech. She is thick love! She is the queen of it all! I can’t say enough about the value I received from this investment in myself.”

“I have been speaking professionally for several years and attended Real Speaking to hone my new message. I came away with exactly what I wanted – a powerful presentation that took me past my comfort zone and into what Gail calls ‘the home zone.’Gail’s design is impeccable, her facilitation exactly what it needs to be in the moment and for the audience, and her feedback deep and penetrating. Real Speaking is for any level, novice or experienced. The individual attention is aimed right where it needs to be. I have attended innumerable learning programs and often I have come away wanting. Not so with Real Speaking. The only thing I was left wanting was more. Real Speaking is a masterpiece!”

DENISE BROUILETTE, PRESIDENT

“I am realizing that my work starts with the central lessons I learned from Real Speaking, and so much joy and richness have unfolded when I have dropped the rules and regulations of ‘marketing’ and ‘being inspirational and upbeat’ and just said, ‘Let me get REAL and stop caring what other people will think.’ In fact, I have almost immediately made several more new, genuine connections through this kind of sharing. It takes practice to be real! Gail Larsen is a true teacher.”
