What to expect after a Talkpower workshop:

Why Is Talkpower Different?

 

Twenty years ago Ms. Rogers, MSW, CSW, realized that traditional methods like Advise, Suggestions, Relaxation Training, Visualization, Positive Thinking, Eye Contact, Body Language, Video or Therapy could not significantly change intense performance anxiety. Conducting hundreds of workshops in search of a cohesive method for controlling this condition Ms. Rogers with her wealth of professional knowledge developed an original  Mind Body, Muscle Memory training program for expanding concentration and eliminating intense anxiety when having to face an audience. This practical step-by-step training based upon the principals of neuroscience is called Talkpower: A Panic Clinic For Public Speaking. Conducted with original exercises, routines and drills it is similar to the systematic way star athletes are trained for major Sports events.  

​

Created and designed by Natalie H. Rogers, M.S.W, Ms. Rogers, psychotherapist, actress and author, is the founder of Talkpower Training Seminars. She is the author of the best selling” Talkpower The Mind Body Way To Speak Without Fear”, translated into 14 languages.

One on one Skype sessions are available nationally and internationally

​

 

"Even though I live in New York, Natalie and I had meetings over Skype as well as in person. I must say that the Skype sessions worked just as well as the sessions in her office. She is truly the real deal - Karen

Dear Natalie, 

 

Thank you so much. Because of you I am no longer fearful of speaking before a group, and I had always been terrified at just the thought. This was a disheartening predicament for me. I am a poet who writes to the ear and my terror prevented me from reading my poetry in public. 

 

After attending your Talk Power class and practicing your techniques, I am now able to share my poems with others. This has opened up a whole new world to me that I could never have enjoyed otherwise. 

I read somewhere that life expands or shrinks in proportion to your courage. Thank you for giving me the courage to expand my world. 

 

Sincerely, 

 

Betsy Thorne

 Statements made by participants in the first hour of the Talkpower workshop.

 

"In school, I was taught that students were to be seen, but not heard. I became afraid to raise my hand in class or I became extremely nervous when I did. Now when I speak up at meetings or events I get extremely nervous and I feel flushed. I avoid positions where I have to speak up."

- Julie. 

 

"I was always shy. I thought the issue would go away with age but in some ways, it has gotten worse. I was the youngest child so maybe they were less patient with me. In school, I would be very quiet and not speak up. I had my first panic attack in college. Professionally this has been a problem because even in simple meeting or job interviews I get too nervous. This stops my professional advancement and it is miserable for me.  

-Larry. 

 

"I first became aware of my problem at a job interview; I didn't speak clearly and I spoke too quickly. As a result, I lose out in professional opportunities and avoid talking to decision-makers and executives.   

-Phylis.

 

"In school, I hated to be called on, I would always get nervous and forget the answers.  The night before I have to make a presentation I am so nervous I can't sleep. 

-Elijah 

 

"I am not shy in conversations but when I have to get up in front of people, I feel very self-conscious and can't really think straight. If I am unable to speak at meetings, training or staff meetings my career will be at a standstill. 

-Deborah
