FAQ

Why Join Yes You Can Speak?

Most speaking programs have an outside-in approach, which will never permanently shift the fear response in your brain. On the other hand, the Yes You Can Speak method is an inside-out approach, which uncovers and releases triggering past experiences, limiting beliefs and behaviors that sabotage you. We then help you to reprogram your nervous system so that being in the spotlight and speaking well becomes second nature.

Must I speak in the training?

You will never be forced to speak if you don’t want to. We pride ourselves on creating a super safe and supportive environment so that you will actually want to participate as you are building your courage and natural presence. You can’t fail here and we will be by your side every step of the way so you cross the finish line with a confident smile.

Why Not Join Toastmasters Instead?

Toastmasters is a fantastic organization that gives you a place to practice public speaking. They will teach you how to structure and memorize a speech. But if you've got a lot of fear, it may take years and years to feel comfortable. Once you have a strong foundation and get past your fear, Toastmasters is a fantastic place to practice.

How is Yes You Can Speak different from other public speaking programs?

We employ a strategic step-by-step system that uses neuroscience to release patterns in your brain that cause stage fright.

Most speaking programs use an outside-in approach, which we believe will never permanently shift the fear response in your brain, body, or nervous system. These programs focus on critiquing you in front of the group, reinforcing the feeling that people will always judge you. So we don't do that, and direct our attention instead to building on your strengths. The Yes You Can Speak method is an inside-out approach that uncovers and releases triggering past experiences, limiting beliefs, and sabotaging behaviors. Since research indicates that 90 percent of human behavior is subconscious, this part is essential because if you don't address it, the patterns of staying quiet or having continual self-doubt may never go away.

We then help you to reprogram your nervous system so that being in the spotlight and speaking well becomes second nature. Powerful meditative and experiential exercises will help you to access your inner wisdom, tap into your purpose and illuminate who you are meant to be in the world.

How are the Level I and Level II group trainings structured?

Both the Level I and Level II trainings are online and four weeks each. Class meets for 4 hours once a week, during which you will have multiple positive experiences in front of small groups.

What is included in the 3-part Inspired Speaker Program?

CORE Repatterning™, Level I and Level II

CORE Repatterning™- Four customized, private 90-minute breakthrough sessions to identify and release painful memories of the past, trauma, and self-sabotaging patterns that have prevented you from speaking or relating well with others.

Level I - Irresistible Public Speaking is a 4-week online group training that will enable you to feel comfortable in your skin and speak with ease when all eyes are on you.

Level II - Inspired Speaking and Leadership is a 4-week group training where you master impromptu speaking and step into your brilliance and authenticity. This immersion will guarantee your success as a confident, poised, connected speaker and leader.

Would it make more sense to work privately with a public speaking coach instead of taking a group program?

Working in smaller group "breakout" sessions with Lynn or another speaking coach is an option. However, if you are afraid of speaking publicly, the class environment provides the space for you to break the habit of feeling like your audience is judging you by being in a group and having many eyes on you.

Personal attention is also vital for becoming the most confident and influential speaker and leader you can be. That's why our group trainings include working with Lynn or one of our sought-after Yes You Can Speak coaches during each class session, supporting you in moving quickly from fear to feeling confident and self-assured.

Is this program enough, or will I need more training?

Typically graduates of the Inspired Speaker Program feel fully prepared to speak online or in person to any sort of audience. However, if you’ve got a big engagement, you can work privately with Lynn to craft an amazing talk and hone your delivery.

How are the private CORE Repatterning sessions structured?

You will receive four private and confidential CORE Repatterning sessions via Zoom video conference. Your first session will be 90 minutes to two hours long, and you will identify the root causes of why you struggle with communication.

All subsequent sessions are 90-minutes each, during which you will be guided to release the emotional charge related to past painful or traumatic events. Typically, these emotional experiences - even if unconscious - are why you feel afraid of being in the spotlight, either personally or professionally.

The CORE process helps you to both identify and release the charge that creates nervous tension and other self-sabotaging behaviors.
