Jodee Blanco

“Yesterday, New York Times bestselling author and powerhouse speaker, Jodee Blanco turned the idea of “presentation skills” on its head — and handed us the tools to do the same. No hype. No gimmicks. Just a bold, human approach to showing up with purpose. This wasn’t about flashy slides or perfect scripts. It was about learning how to lead with truth, compassion, and real connection — whether you're pitching one-on-one or owning a ballroom. Key takeaways: - Be authentic and vulnerable. You don’t have to be loud to be powerful. - Lead with truth and compassion. That’s where trust starts. - Be prepared, not rehearsed. Your story > your script. From sound checks to centering exercises, eye contact to energy levels, Jodee showed us that great presentations aren’t born — they’re built through intention, strategy, and self-awareness. And yes, we practiced — because this wasn’t a lecture, it was a movement toward showing up more powerfully, more purposefully, and more us. Let’s build a culture where we don’t just present — we connect”

“Jodee’s workshop completely shifted how I think about presenting. She has a rare gift for breaking down the simplest communication habits — the ones we don’t even realize we have — and helping you rebuild them with intention and confidence. Her energy, insight, and vulnerability create a space where everyone feels seen and empowered to show up more fully. Whether you’re a seasoned executive or just getting comfortable in front of a room, Jodee meets you exactly where you are. I walked away with tools I’ll use in every meeting, pitch, and presentation moving forward — and a deeper awareness of how I want to connect with my audience. If you have the chance to work with Jodee, take it.”

“Jodee demonstrates incredible thoughtfulness and joy while connecting with her audience. Her keynotes, workshops, and courses are filled with empathy, professionalism, and practical pathways to a better tomorrow.”
