There’s one question that brings every professional to their knees:
So, what do you do?
We all hate this question!
Even when we know what we do
AND that we do it well!
Why do we hate it?
You worry that you'll be misunderstood, underestimated, or judged
You struggle to put what your work into words
You don't like coming off as 'salesy'
You don't know where to start
It just feels awkward
What if...
Talking about what you do (or want to do) felt...
Easier
Authentic & less market-y
Less stressful
More fun
(And less like being called to the witness stand?!)
In short, what if talking about what you do felt almost as good as doing it?
The answer isn't a cute tagline, a clever pitch, or a canned speech.
(Ever try using one in real life? Eww.)
When you shift your perspective and SEE your in work in a fresh way, as a story instead of a resume, you can find ease in sharing it - and keep the right conversations moving forward.
During this full-day, face to face virtual workshop
You'll learn to...
Quiet the internal critic
Find the words you've struggled to say
Discover new connections in your work - and new ways of talking about it
Reframe conversations so that they feel like invitations, rather than judgments
Feel more confident about what you have to share, instead of worried or anxious
...plus! have the opportunity to share your work and get live feedback!
We'll draw on the Gateless Writing Method to help you bust through blocks and access story, memory, and intuition to find the right words - plus a tool I've developed for working with your ideas in a nonlinear way.
You don't have to break a sweat to talk about what you do.

Sound like you?
I asked thousands of people, from a wide range of industries,
“Why do you hate explaining what you do?”
and here’s just some of what they told me:
“There is a fear that I am coming off sub par. I think of friends who have accomplished more than me...I start thinking what have you really done and was it enough?”
– Dave F.
“I find it challenging to say something exciting and substantive…
it just often feels like you must choose.”
–Ryan A.
“I think women have a hard time selling ourselves or talking about ourselves. We’re happy to talk about our family and friends or even strangers...but when it comes to talking about ourselves we just stall out.”
– Michelle L.
“Explaining can make you feel defensive.”
- Margaret O.
“Describing what I do is deflating.”
– Casey A.
