…A Transformation to Speaking Confidence
Calling on authors, coaches, speakers, entrepreneurs and business professionals who are expanding their visibility, their clientele, and leadership.
You’ve got dreams of what you could be and what you could do.
But the idea of presenting in a certain situation – a meeting, networking, in front of a certain size crowd, (certain people in the crowd) or the camera lens fills you with dread.
Sound familiar?
The racing heart, sweaty pits, brain freeze…
Worrying about being judged and what others will think…
Wondering if you’re good enough, interesting enough, expert enough…
Avoiding opportunities to speak in public or on video…
Feeling like the best-kept secret…
Seeing others putting themselves out there and you wondering why it feels so darn hard…
It actually makes a lot of sense.
We receive so MUCH JUDGEMENT FROM THE MEDIA, IN SCHOOL AND SOMETIMES from OUR FAMILIES.
You’re not hopeless or damaged in feeling this way. And you’re definitely not alone.
Best of all, you’re not stuck with it!
Close your eyes and imagine…
How nice it is to feel calm and confident speaking in front of a crowd or facing the camera lens.
No more racing heart, sweaty palms or dry mouth.
No longer concerned with whether you are good enough, expert enough, how you look and sound, and who sees you online.
Finally getting out there and being seen by others as a thought leader in your field.
Not pretending to be something you’re not; just being your natural and authentic self and it’s good enough.
Making the impact in the world that you’ve always wanted to make, helping the people who need you the most because you’re no longer hiding in the shadows.
…To create that impact you’ve got to be seen.
To have that impact, you’ve got to become known
…known in your company, known to your followers, and known in your industry.
If people don’t know you exist you can’t help them.
You owe it to them as well as to yourself to put yourself “out there”.
Whether that’s on stage, on camera, in the media or the meeting room,
speaking, in some form or another, is the way.
That’s why I created…
The Speakers Breakthrough/ Comfy on Camera!
So you can —
Feel calm, comfortable and naturally you wherever you speak, online or in-person.
Let go of your self-judgment, worries and trepidation.
Enjoy your speaking presence.
Speak articulately about your work and business.
The Speakers Breakthrough is 10 weeks of group magic that will transform your stress and anxiety around speaking to a place of confidence and ease.
Over these ten weeks you’ll:
Uncover the embarrassing, painful, or impacting experiences that told you it’s not safe to be seen and heard
so you can heal and resolve these issues once and for all. To shift away from fear and into confidence wherever you go.
Heal the inner critic and restore a sense of safety
so you can watch yourself on video without cringing and expand your self-expression.
Reframe the cultural and family beliefs that you unconsciously adopted
so they no longer have the power to hold you back and you can finally feel comfortable sharing your true and authentic self.
Make friends with the lens
so you build an easeful presence that connects you to yourself and your audience whether that’s on video, live stream, or online meeting software.
Who joins the Speakers Breakthrough
program?
Speakers, authors, professionals, and executives, who want to ditch the dread and nerves when having to speak or get on camera.
Entrepreneurs artists and change-makers who want to expand their visibility but find themselves holding back.
Being a writer involves marketing—readings, workshops, interviews—and I was hoping that these opportunities wouldn’t come my way because I was afraid of the camera.
I saw testimonials here from previous students who said that this was a transformative, life changing experience. And then I noticed, maybe two weeks into the program, I was using those same words to describe myself!
“I’ve come so far and couldn’t go back to the way things were before if I tried. It’s kind of bittersweet because I don’t want the course to end.”
Caitie Doidone, Fitness Coach
“I had tried and tried all kinds of other things. She gets you. It was worth the money and emotional bandwidth.”
Dr. Cari Oneal, Sex and Relationship Positive Coach
“It’s been a transformational experience…It removed those limits I set for myself saying I’ll never be on Youtube or video. And now I’m all in!”
Tatiana Tsoir, CPA and Author
Your success story here!
What to expect?
Tears, laughter, and a warm surround of positivity. Time to speak, to write, and reflect. To move your body and release your past. To step into your presence feeling calm and naturally you when you speak.
Let go of your self-judgment, and criticism Love your on-camera presence Enjoy your self-expression
“Working with Linda Ugelow was a life-changing experience. I’m on multiple virtual meetings each day and the impact has been dramatic. I used to be nervous, jittery, insecure about how I looked, and distracted by the thoughts in my head. Now I’m focused on sharing my ideas. I’m also comfortable speaking spontaneously, even if I’m not totally prepped.”
Gena Cox – Leadership Strategist
“Linda’s use of visioning and her playful exercises truly elevated this from a ‘how-to’ program to one of transformation and growth. I pretty much detested seeing myself on camera. Now I am exploring ways to spread my message with video as well as speaking that I would not even have considered that before.”
Janet Powers – Activist, Speaker, Designer
“Linda gives so much of her time in this program. She becomes deeply invested in each one of us, cheering us on and guiding us to stay focused on what we are here to individually achieve.”

I interviewed Tamsen Webster on my TV show Women Inspired a year after we finished working together. In this clip she shares how her work with me changed her speaking trajectory. Tamsen Webster is a keynoter, “freenoter” and creator of the Red Thread process to help businesses and speakers create content and presentations. She was also long-time co-producer of the largest TEDx stage at the Boston Opera House.
What’s included…
Eight 90-minute small group coaching calls where you’ll receive attention on your personal journey.
A step-by-step process to reveal and heal the roots of the fear of being seen and heard as well as to transform the inner critic.
Guided creative journaling to invoke your inner healing powers
Twice weekly video prompts to explore your video presence and free self-expression on a variety of camera platforms—video, live stream, zoom, video messaging.
A judgment-free supportive Facebook group where you can explore being naturally you.
An interview with me as the host that you can use right away in your business.
BONUS:
Invite to the Inspired Speakers Stomping Ground, a private client/student-only Facebook group
“I am a frequent paid speaker but still experienced fairly significant stage fright before getting on stage, particularly when I was presenting new material. Linda helped uncover the roots of my fear and gave me techniques to move past them.
The framing around curiosity has been pretty much life-changing. The dread I used to feel before speaking engagements is now completely gone.”
Tamsen Webster – Keynote Business Speaker and Presentation Strategist
“When my two businesses took off, I was suddenly asked to give talks and received all kinds of media attention. It felt like so much pressure and my nerves got to me. My hands would shake, my chest and stomach tightened up, and I couldn’t catch my breath. I really wanted to just be authentically me and not worry about the audience.
I’ve come a long way with just a few sessions with Linda. Yesterday I spoke at a conference for women and had so much fun!! I was the only one on the panel to receive applause after my answer. I’ve gotten over my fear of public speaking and have worked very hard to strengthen my craft, so that was an incredibly special moment for me.”
Kristina Tsipouras, CEO of Moroccan Magic; Founder of Boston Business Women
“I wanted to do more video, as a way to share information with people. Being on camera always triggered a long-held fear of being worried about what others would think, a concern about saying the right thing and all kinds of self-judgement. I tried to stop the inner dialogue myself, with limited success, and wanted to put this behind me once and for all so I’d be comfortable and more effective on camera.
After working with Linda, I finally feel calm in front of the camera, free of worry and my intense inner dialog. It feels so good to not be carrying around all the junk in my head and like making videos is no big deal.”
S.G. Executive Coach
“After years of seeking resolution and freedom around my negative self worth from “heavily credentialed” therapists, I continued to feel like a victim.
After a few sessions with Linda, I feel like a new person—doing things I would have never had the courage before to do.”
Andrea Sanchez Founder, SparkStory
“I wanted to be able to speak to a large crowd without freaking out, feeling so nervous, rushing, and having difficulty focusing. I felt confident in my material and pitching myself. I just wasn’t confident I could do it in front of a group of 70.
After working with Linda, I gave my best ever “performance.” I was lively, informal, funny, and clear. I was able to deliver the content I wanted without my notes. People raved to me and each other. I’d say ‘I nailed it’.”
Shulamit Ber Levtov, Counselling Social Worker, and Yoga Teacher
FAQs
I'm really freaked out by the camera. Will this help me get over my fear?
Although I can’t guarantee your personal outcome, students report feeling transformed and say their fear is something of the past.
I don’t know anything about making videos. Will I be lost?
You’ll be fine. You get short and simple tutorials on everything you need for the program and beyond. And I’m here to help you out.
What kind of equipment do I need?
If you have a phone and/or computer with a camera, you’ll be all set for the class.
If you plan to plan on making videos long term with your phone, I suggest getting a lav mic for under $20 and a tripod for another $20. When you enroll, you’ll receive a suggested equipment list with links.
What makes this course different from other video programs?
Most speaker programs address how to craft your talk and deliver it. They may give you some tips for managing your fear, but they don’t give you a process to actually address it in a meaningful way that makes your fear a thing of the past.
Most video programs teach you the setup tech, help you with what to say, and give you practice. All of that is great and in this program too. But what makes this program unique is that it guides you to:
- Overcome your fear by uncovering the root causes and clearing them away.
- Experience inner relaxation, confidence, and presence when on camera
- Explore your range of personality, energy, open-heartedness, passion, and authority.
- Master deep connection to the camera lens and all it represents
- Exchange dynamic energy with your audience
- Transform your inner critic into a compassionate ally
You’ll get to apply these transformations to three different camera platforms— on a zoom interview, live streaming, and video.
AND you’ll learn the elements of creating a community that restores your sense of safety to freely express yourself.
