Conversations With Coaches

Kevin Desrosiers is a Public Speaking Coach who works with business leaders, entrepreneurs, and other professionals who want to capture their audience’s attention so their message is heard. The skills he teaches are of tremendous benefit to both the professional and personal sides of life.

In today's episode, from one Kevin to another, we talk about his long road to becoming a coach for public speaking, how to grab an audience's attention (and keep it), and what moves people to respond to their call-to-action.

Kevin's also expanding his public speaking coaching to include what I like to think of as "digital presence" - how to communicate effectively and with depth in digital spaces like Zoom and YouTube.

Mic is the founder of Eleven Coaching. Their team of over 2 dozen coaches leaves people and organizations better than they found them, and that is what they are most proud of.

This episode is easily among the most entertaining and insightful conversations I’ve had for the pod. Rather than focus on himself and his coaching business, right from the jump Mic wanted to talk about coaching philosophies and practices – keeping the spotlight on the work and the people that benefit from it.

As you might imagine from that description, this episode runs a little longer than the usual CwC pod. 🙂

But it’s absolutely worth a listen! Maybe take the dog on an extra lap around the block. 😉

Rose-Anne specializes in optimization and total life well-being. She works with corporations to improve their talent retention, increase their employee engagement, and boost their productivity.

She partners with high-performing business executives to help them create sustainable lifestyles that promote wellness and mental health.

Ro was an absolute delight to talk with! We start with how a dear friend/mentor first helped her realize that she's - in many ways - always been a coach, and encouraged her to take those first steps.

We also touch on the potency and magic of one-on-one coaching, and how she's finding "the sweet spot" in her thriving group coaching practice.
