“I was generally getting positive responses to my presentations, but wanted to step them up a notch in terms of energy and impact. In an incredibly productive two-hour intensive session, KC completely revolutionised the way I think about my interactions with the audience. She analysed my TED Talk and showed me where and how I had squandered the impact of my “diamond insights”. Her coaching is practical, inspiring and effective. I am on a tight budget, but this was the best investment I have ever made in myself. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“I met KC at a dinner party five days before my TEDxSF presentation. I was extremely nervous, anxious, and did not feel that my presentation was really expressing who I was and how my journey to running a World-Wide Safe Motherhood Non Profit began. Everyone at the party felt I needed to start fresh on my talk, which I had agonized over for two months including previous coaching sessions. KC told me that night, “I can help you”. I did not hesitate to call her the following morning, within 6 hours she helped me find my voice to tell one of the most compelling stories on saving the lives of women who face death in order to give birth. She guided me to have confidence, strength, and to walk out and let the world know that women are “Dying to Give Birth”. She is inspiring, kind, and works with a fierce open heart.”
“I have had to speak in public most of my professional life and I have hated every minute of it. That is, until I met KC. There’s a way she saw me that allowed me to see myself in a whole new way. She showed me my skills and strengths and gave me the tools to harness them. I am now looking forward to any chance I have to speak in public and that is nothing short of a miracle. Anyone who struggles with public speaking, anyone who stopped trying because they thought they were bad, and anyone who is ready to be done with that internal unsupportive dialogue about it should work with KC.”
“Well, last night was the Farmer Dave’s CSA members party and I showed my documentary. I have to say – the evening was awesome. The video was very well delivered and received. I ended up showing it multiple times to the same group, and then from there, more groups came to see it. I put into that video the love and gratitude, passion and play that is truly in my heart and something I wanted to say without hesitation. It was that I had hesitation that I came to you for help. Because of my work with you, I no longer have those old tapes running that kept me from being seen. I felt a door open for me KC – one that I’d been pressing against for a long time. And I didn’t fall through it…I put down my tail for grounding, and elegantly, slowly walked through it and took the time to “see.” Much love to you for your help creating another well-spoken woman.”
“Holy Flippin’ Firecrackers! KC Baker is an old soul, a wizardress that wields a magic wand when it comes to turning visions & missions into clear, crafted, invitations that have your people standing in line to know more. Literally, after the School for the Well Spoken Woman I was surprised to find a long line of ideal new clients & an invitation to speak for TEDx Women. And I’m prepared for it, because KC brings a background of rigorous coaching, ridiculous personal training & so much more heart, commitment & celebration to her vision of women as iconic leaders. She can hear what’s not yet clarified & she knows exactly how to draw it out so the audience members take it as their own. If you’re ready to go public with your legacy, KC is Stop #1 to Rock It.”
“KC is AWESOME! I’m currently being coached by her and have had breakthroughs in every session! I recommend her to any woman who is getting in her own way, especially on camera or on stage. Her methods are simple but they work. She is very down to earth, real and genuinely cares about helping women express themselves fully. She always creates a very comfortable and safe environment, and is very supportive and encouraging. I can’t say enough. After 3 sessions with KC I no longer feel intimated by the camera and feel freer to be my unique and fabulous self both on and off camera. Don’t waste any more time in fear. Hire her! You’ll wish you’d done it years ago.”
“KC takes a whole new approach to the concept of charisma and leadership development. She cuts through conventional thinking on what it takes to establish a personal presence, connect with other people – 1:1 or from the stage – and own the confidence that “makes” a compelling speaker. I value her sage insights, actionable recommendations, and “secret weapons” that turn stepping up to the microphone into real fun. I love the difference I feel when I put her advice into action. It’s rewarding on stage and in my everyday life.”
“KC Baker has been a tremendous coach and guide on my personal path to create a deeper connection with myself, and others, through full self-expression, and the gift of musical performance. Through her deep meditations, tantra teaching, life inquiry, and perfomance challenges, I was able to tap into my core female essence, and learn how to perform with confidence, grace & elegance. The biggest aha moment with KC was her encouragement to sing with EMOTIONALITY. That word had never resonated with me before, and now I understand how to really tell an emotional story when I sing, that people can passionately feel and participate in. I am in the process of producing my own album, which I have enlisted KC’s assistance to help continue to take performance risks and reach my full expressive potential. I give the highest recommendation for KC Baker…working with her and her practice will undoubtedly be transformational.”
“I worked with KC for hours in creating the speech for the launch event of my organization, Women Enough. The space of her coaching and her listening of my speech, and of me, was so safe that I was able to declare a life-long dream: to walk across America to interview women for a documentary. A room-full of women came to my launch party and, after I gave my speech and shared my vision for Women Enough and my declaration to walk across America, a whirlwind of emotion filled me. 100 women listened to me declare my dream, my passions, my purpose. Since that evening, my life and my organization has been full-force.”
