If you’ve been giving a presentation but you feel like what you do in your business isn’t well integrated into it and you aren’t getting the leads, clients, and referrals that you know you could, it’s time to stop giving that version and create one that gets you results.

In this on-air coaching call, I help my guest Melissa Bennett re-work her presentation to make it more impactful for her audience and for her business.

If you’ve listened to episode 57 on my story structure framework, you’ll see it put into action here.

There’s a way of integrating what you do through your experiences, client stories, and framework that’s much more effective than “selling from the stage” and you’ll hear how we do that with Melissa’s content.

About My Guest: Melissa Bennett is a writer, artist, seeker, and coach. She lives at The Watershed Farm just outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee, with her two young, energetic, wide-eyed, adventuresome boys (+ another on the way!) & life partner on this incredible journey, her husband David. Alongside her wise herd of equine partners, Melissa supports & empowers women just like YOU to move through fear and live a life of confidence, courage, & creative expression. Melissa also carries this wisdom of the Horse and healing powers of the Earth into her online offerings, which includes a women’s circle with highly personalized monthly gift boxes, ritual kits, group and private coaching, and spiritual guidance to women who are dedicated to showing up for themselves, owning their power, and playing bigger in their own lives and in their communities.
