Jezra was fantastic. From the very first session, she understood what was blocking my speaking success, offered some fabulous advice, and helped me view public speaking in a very different way.  The presentation was a success, my nerves were minimal, and thanks to Jezra, I am almost looking forward to the next one that I have been invited back to give.

Susan LaRosa Deputy Officer, Marketing and Communications, Henry Street Settlement

"I have been a keynote speaker for over ten years. I figured I had this speaking thing more or less down; why would I need a coach? But in just a few sessions with Jezra I discovered that there truly is an art to being your best speaking self, and Jezra is a master at unlocking that. She is patient and supportive, and full of great frameworks and exercises, such that while we workshopped just one speech I learned concepts that I can take with me across multiple venues. Thank you Jezra!"
