Your sessions are expensive… but now I see why: From Overthinking His Accent to Owning the Room

“Your sessions are expensive… but now I see why. I used to freeze on Zoom and second-guess every sentence. Now I speak up, lead the conversation, and honestly enjoy hearing myself talk.”

That’s what my client Howard told me after one of our recent sessions.

When Howard enrolled in my Speech Improvement Program, he had just been promoted to a leadership role at his company.

But with that promotion came pressure, and a lot of self-doubt.

“I’ve got the ideas and experience… but I don’t sound like a leader when I speak.”

He worried his accent and speaking style might cause colleagues to underestimate his expertise or even question his authority.

But step by step, everything began to shift:

• He kicked off meetings without filler words, kept the team focused, and got compliments from his manager after.
• He stopped lowering his volume and rushing his speech.  Now he makes a point and lets it land.
• He used to overthink every word. Now people ask him how he stays so calm and clear under pressure.

Yes, he invested time, effort, and money. But as Howard put it:

“This isn’t just about my accent. It’s about how I show up in the world.”

What Made the Difference?

✅ Pinpointing the exact patterns that were making his speech unclear
✅ Working together to develop his personal voice, speech, and accent goals
✅ Replacing guesswork with confidence by giving him choices and strategies to control the way he sounds

This kind of transformation doesn’t come from a quick fix or a few minutes a day with an app.

It comes from a process. A method. A commitment.

And it’s worth every penny.

Now, imagine being the coach who helps someone experience that.

I share stories like Howard’s because they remind us that this work goes far beyond sounds and sentences. It’s about changing the way people show up in the world.

That’s the opportunity you have when you step into accent training. And that’s why I’m so passionate about training more instructors to do it.

And if you feel called to this kind of work, I’d be honored to show you the way.

PS:  If you’ve been wondering if it’s worth it, remember that The Accent Channel Certification is an investment that lasts far beyond the training itself, giving you the skills, confidence, and method to change lives, while opening the door to new professional and earning opportunities.
