Most books about public speaking donât tell you what to do when you open your mouth and nothing comes out. And they donât tell you how to get over the anxiety about performance that most people naturally have. They donât tell you what to do in the moments when you are made, as a woman, to feel small. They donât tell you how to own the room. This book does.

And how can you achieve that impact in your own life? Hereâs how.
