Sarah Collins

The podcast that empowers women in business to own their voice, be heard and create impact - one simple communication insight at a time. You know your message and story matter, but something still holds you back from using your voice.

With over 20 years’ of experience in television production, Sarah has spent two decades shaping stories and messages for global audiences. She's now on a mission to bring simple, effective communication skills to the generation of women who were never taught them - but need them to thrive in business now more than ever. Whether it’s scaling your voice to step into thought leadership in a media interview, speaking with confidence on camera, on stage and beyond or scaling the way you communicate in meetings and presentations - this podcast will help you use your voice to be heard, in the moments that matter. Through a mix of solo and guest episodes, you'll gain real-world media insights, practical coaching techniques and honest conversations with experts  in the speaking space, exploring what it really takes to use your voice effectively. Remember to speak with intention, not hesitation and let your voice be heard.

    In this episode of She Speaks to Scale, I'm closing my Summer Speaking Habits Series with the habit I think will resonate with almost everyone - the running commentary that plays in your head while you're speaking.

    21. Speaking Habit #3: Waiting for Permission to Speak (Instead of Trusting in Your Voice)

    In this episode of She Speaks to Scale, I'm tackling episode three of my Summer Speaking Habits Series - and this one is the most personal yet.

In this episode, I also share: 🎙️ Why I kept my voice small in the corporate world and the moment I decided to move forward despite it 🎙️ The LinkedIn comment about a This Morning opportunity that stopped me in my tracks 🎙️ Why waiting until you feel ready is just external validation in disguise 🎙️ Three practical steps to start trusting your voice and seek out the opportunities that are already waiting for you Take the Speaker Identity Quiz: https://sarahcollinscoaching.com/speakeridentityquiz About the Host: Sarah Collins is a Speaking Coach, Media Expert, former Senior TV Producer for ITV and ITN and host of the 'She Speaks to Scale' podcast.
