Hey, there! I’m Alissa!
A speaker coach and former educator who believes that your voice is the most powerful marketing tool you own.
Before I became a speaker coach, I spent 17 years in classrooms and educational leadership, where I learned firsthand how to win over the toughest crowds: teenagers, teachers, and administrators alike.
I started my business the old-fashioned way: delivering donuts to anyone who would listen to me, hoping someone would take a chance on my services.
**Spoiler alert: it was exhausting and NOT a lead-gen strategy.
My approach isn’t just about speaking techniques; it’s about translating your expertise into magnetic communication that drives understanding, buy-in, and action.
Everything changed when I discovered speaking.
One stage. One room of the right people.
Suddenly, instead of chasing leads, they were coming to me!
Speaking transformed my business, and now I help other business owners create that same magic.
Most speaking coaches start with delivery.
I start with perspective.
Because presence isn’t something you put on.
It’s something that happens when your message finally fits who you are.
I don’t give you scripts that sound like everyone else.
I help you recognize the authority already living inside your story, then shape it into a message others can feel, trust, and act on.
My approach is simple:
I’m a luminary, a guide who helps people see what they can’t yet see in themselves or their message.
I have spent my career helping leaders, educators, and business owners translate complexity into clarity, emotion into insight, and lived experience into meaningful action.
I don’t believe your story needs more polish.
I believe it needs perspective.
And once you see it clearly, presence follows.
If you’ve been hiding behind cold calls, endless networking, or “posting and praying,” I’m here to show you a better way.
Speaking is your shortcut to connection, credibility, and clients. And I’ll be right by your side, cheering you on, laughing with you, and making sure your voice lands exactly where it needs to.
**When I’m not helping clients land stages and close deals, you can find me sipping sweet tea in Texas, reading, hiking, or plotting my next conference takeover.
