TESTIMONIALS
Prior to working with Shawn, I had very little confidence in my ability to deliver impactful presentations and speeches, which created a fair amount of internal anxiety and led to mediocre performance. Over the past year, Shawn has become a critical step in my speech preparation process and the results have been remarkable! Her thoughtful approach—pinpointing the target audience, identifying the most salient points to emphasize, strategizing on tone, substance and style—makes the process and outcomes a worthwhile investment. The results are immediate and sustainable, and I wouldn’t think about speech prep without engaging Shawn. Today I am more confident than ever, and thanks to Shawn, I’m able to infuse the right amount of authenticity and personality into message delivery for optimal impact.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Shawn in several capacities over a multi-year period. Whether in a group setting or 1:1 executive coaching, Shawn has an innate ability to quickly identify an individual’s strengths and areas of opportunity. Her calm demeanor provides a welcoming space for clients to feel comfortable being vulnerable so she can help them work on areas where improvement is sought. Shawn offers insightful and thoughtful recommendations that empower her clients to confidently lean into their strengths, while working with them to embrace the opportunities.

“Shawn as become a critical step in my speech preparation process”
Shawn Judge is a presentation alchemist. She draws out the best aspects of a person's professional and personal strengths to create a stronger holistic presenter. I've watched presenters evolve into excellent presenters under Shawn's tutelage. Beyond the experiential aspects of her training—where she uses theatrical, psychological, emotional and even physical concepts—Shawn uses real-world tips for staying on-strategy and on-message. When clients emerge from her training, they are well equipped for the spotlight. It's a totally unique experience.

“With the energy, experience and upfront style that Shawn brings, one can only walk away with increased self-awareness and greater confidence”
Shawn is the real deal. I can attest to the glow that she has and how it makes one feel radiating love when they are in her presence. She has a gift of awakening all your inner light, and helping you to accept your own greatness. I always leave our sessions feeling more energized and personally powerful with equipped tools even after our sessions. I HIGHLY recommend Shawn for anyone who wants to experience new levels of self-awareness and for getting past obstacles, growing the business or their lives.

With the energy, experience and upfront style that Shawn brings, one can only walk away with increased self-awareness and greater confidence communicating with peers and presenting to groups. At DSI we have been fortunate enough to work with Shawn in team and individual settings. Adept at understanding needs and quickly disarming the participant from any preconceived limitations, Shawn excels at navigating the space between comfort, discomfort and growth. I highly recommend The Speakers Edge to any individual or organization that shares Shawn’s goals for the participant: Greatness can be achieved if you are willing to try!
