Today’s Guest
Table of Contents
I first heard about today’s guest, Sarah Lloyd-Hughes, back when I was in Toastmasters, battling my own public speaking demons. I think that was also about the time that her book was released. I’ve had her on my list of women I wanted to invite to this podcast, and after I recently saw her speak at Corrina Gordon-Barnes‘ You Inspire Me meetup, I realized that I needed to get her on the show to share her tips on public speaking.

She challenges and supports them on the journey to become passionate, authentic and inspiring communicators.

A CTI Trained Co-active coach and practicing Buddhist, Sarah suffers from a life-long obsession with the hunt for the full potential of human beings – a theme which weaves itself enthusiastically through her work.
Deep inside, Sarah is really a frustrated artist. As consolation, she adds a personal touch to her books, speaking and training by illustrating them with her unique and charming ‘Doodles’.
