The Transformational Speaking Immersion


"Working with Gail is life changing, personally and professionally. She is a wise elder, a skilled practitioner and a deeply soulful guide. Her work has opened the hearts and voices of millions around the world including my own. Working with her will guide you to find your own home zone, your own authentic voice and the unique message that you came here to share. I can't recommend working with her enough." - Rebecca Campbell, International teacher and best-selling author of 3 books including Light is the New Black

Transformational Speaking is a comprehensive learning experience designed to move you into the presentation you–and only you–can deliver and for which your life journey has prepared you. This four-day immersion for just six “important strangers” is a rich exploration of your best ideas, the stories that bring them to life, and your own distinctive way to share them, all with personal coaching and videotaping throughout the class.

________________________________________________

The last few years have asked a lot of us, and the Immersion is an opportunity to get out of  jetlag and catch up to what your life wants to show you in this emergence.  If you’re being called to a more authentic, aligned level of contribution, Transformational Speaking will support you in building a strong foundation based on self-trust and personal power to go to the next level in your work and self-expression.

Chris was brilliant in interviewing me for this podcast that really covers why Transformational Speaking is different from any speaker training. What and who inspired the work, my story, and the foundations of Original Medicine, HomeZone™ and how to develop a talk without a script to be present to the energy of the moment.

________________________________________________

Tell me a fact and I’ll listen. Tell me a truth and I’ll learn. But tell me a story, And it will live in my heart forever.”

-Native American Wisdom

Most of us don’t know our best stories and material. We’re either in a growth spurt where we haven’t yet found the words to communicate our experience, or we’re unduly attached to what has worked for us in the past. You have something to speak about that you and only you can communicate. Yet the distinctive, amazing part of your own story often needs to be reawakened and explored. Gertrude Stein said, “If you already knew it, it would not be creation but dictation.”

At Transformational Speaking, we explore. We dive deep. We find buried treasure. We draw from indigenous wisdom as well as what works in the speaking world today. In the process, we reach for creation of your new expression rather than dictation from an old mindset. What you most care about comes up naturally. Often we discover material you have yet to make conscious, revealing your most compelling message. Fun at the Transformational Speaking Immersion

How else is this training different? Transformational Speaking is not a presentation skills class. Public speaking skills applied prematurely can actually prevent the discovery of what is most captivating and original about you. Great speaking is less about being “fixed” than being found. As you tell your stories, Gail coaches you on speaking from your Home Zone™. You begin to trust what emerges in the moment while building confidence and skills that reveal your greatness. (Yes, your greatness is already there!)

_______________________________________

What are the key features of the training?

In this four-day deep dive of discovery, you will:

  • Appreciate and honor who you really are by claiming your “Original Medicine,” the gifts and talents that you and you alone possess
  • Identify and develop your core message, the foundation for your branding and any presentation you ever make
  • Move beyond the comfort zone, where most speakers stop, to the Home Zone™ where your power as a speaker emerges and you fully embody your message
  • Understand the four levels of engagement and how your story can move your audience from resistance to resonance
  • Discover the voices you’ve silenced that bring you and your speaking alive
  • Appreciate your own S/Hero’s Journey and use your stories to move others
  • Learn how change happens so you can influence people whose worldviews differ from your own
  • Explore energy management practices that alleviate fear and nervousness
  • Dump the script with an easy method of presentation development that supports both spontaneity and structure
  • Create the New Story that will inspire the change you know is possible

On the final day you distill what you have to say into a new 15-20 minute presentation integrating all you’ve  learned. You’ll be amazed at the confidence you exude when you know your medicine and your message!  And you’ll leave with clarity about what is yours to do, simplifying and amplifying your decisions moving forward.

Real Speaking can change your life by changing the way you connect to others.

Real Speaking brought something out in me I didn’t know existed.

If you want to add an honest, powerful voice to the world – namely, your own – stretch into this work.

“The experience dramatically enhanced my abilities
as a speaker.”

“You will leave there having total clarity on your
message, total clarity on who you are in your
heart, and very likely you’ll get an insane
level of transformation.”

Welcome!

Gail Larsen P.S.  Don’t let your preferred date slip by! Classes often fill well in advance because we accept only six people. Watch our Calendar for our upcoming schedule.

I have been speaking professionally for several years and attended Real Speaking to hone my new message. I came away with exactly what I wanted – a powerful presentation that took me past my comfort zone and into what Gail calls ‘the HomeZone™.’ Gail’s design is impeccable, her facilitation exactly what it needs to be in the moment and for the audience, and her feedback deep and penetrating. Real Speaking is for any level, novice or experienced. The individual attention is aimed right where it needs to be. I have attended innumerable learning programs and often I have come away wanting. Not so with Real Speaking. The only thing I was left wanting was more. Real Speaking is a masterpiece!”
