Why members came back
Hear from guests who visited us and decided to return:
"I came here two weeks ago for the first time... I have a mentor who challenged me to work on my public speaking skills because I initially hated it - so many memories from being forced to do it in school. But I'd never actually done it out of choice."
"Quick story: I came on the first visit, stood outside, couldn't come in, ran away. And then I came back again, tried it, enjoyed it."
"It's like 'eating the frog' - you do the hardest thing in your week first. After clearing that 20-foot gap, everything else in my week was four-foot gaps, five-foot gaps, because I'd already challenged the most difficult thing. So I'm back here to enjoy myself and improve my public speaking."
— Hassan, returned after 2 weeks
"I am back for my second time. Persistence is key. I found this group who was super welcoming, and it was just a brilliant place to be."
— Sophie-Ann, returning guest
"I have career goals I'm trying to build towards and I need to persuade people that I'm reputable. I recognized I need to work on my breathing... Two weeks ago, last session, it was clear as soon as I started - this is something I can work on and need to work on all the time."
— Sam, committed to continuous improvement
"This is the second time for me here. I actually enjoyed the last time which was the first time - very, very good, very organized. Public speaking is a skill that improves over time, not overnight. You have to come and keep improving."
— Amr, registered for membership (later became VP Membership!)
"I make myself ill just thinking about the thoughts of speaking in front of people. Speaking in front of more than two people is terrifying. For me it's a massive journey and transformation. Public speaking and communication - these are skills for life."
— Donna, starting her transformation journey
