Imagine This...

You’re asked to introduce yourself at a high-level meeting.

You get called on to share your vision with your boss, an investor or prospective client.

The podcast recording starts and your mind goes blank.

 You step on stage, and the host says, “Tell us what you do.”

Do you…
👉 stumble, ramble, and hope for the best?
👉 or deliver a confident, compelling message that gets people leaning in, nodding, and ready to say yes?

The truth is, most professionals and business owners lose opportunities every day because they aren’t prepared to communicate under pressure.

They wing it, and it costs them influence, support, and visibility.

If communicating under the spotlight makes your heart race, this training is for you!

What if you could turn one minute into a career-defining moment?

What You'll Walk Away With:

✅ Organize your ideas so they’re clear and compelling

✅ Build a solid and repeatable messaging structure

✅ Craft content that makes even technical topics simple and engaging

✅ Use storytelling techniques that connect with your audience

✅ Develop the mindset you need to walk in with confidence

Shark Tank-Style Session

On day 4 you'll step into a supportive “Shark Tank-style” session where you present your polished 1-minute pitch, introduction, or presentation to an expert panel.

You’ll walk away with a polished, presentation-ready 1-minute pitch you can deliver anywhere — boardrooms, keynotes, investor meetings, podcasts, or video.

Laressa’s media training course was exactly what I needed—and more. Her deep expertise is matched by her generosity and genuine support throughout the process. 

What stood out most was Laressa’s openness to questions—no matter how big or small—and her thoughtful, encouraging feedback. She not only offered expert suggestions for improvement but also made sure to highlight what I was already doing well, which boosted my confidence tremendously. She was always responsive, insightful, and empowering.

Laressa taught me how to prepare so I could feel confident under pressure, how to deliver my message with clarity, and how to use my voice and body language to connect with an audience.

Laressa Watlington

Speaking Coach, Producer, and Media Strategist

I’ve spent more than two decades helping people communicate under pressure. As an Emmy-winning Producer and Media Strategist, I’ve seen what happens when someone walks into the spotlight unprepared, and I’ve seen the transformation when they are confident, clear, and ready.

I’ve worked with a diverse range of leaders, from attorneys and doctors to entrepreneurs and executives. Some were seasoned professionals, others were stepping up for the very first time. What they all had in common was the need to share their message in a way that earned trust, sparked connection, and inspired action.

That’s what this training is designed to do for you. With the right framework, you will not just survive your next presentation, you will succeed.

As co-founder of Confident Reach and creator of the Spotlight Ready coaching program, I bring together years of media experience and proven communication strategies to help you:

  • Overcome nerves and self-doubt
  • Deliver your message with clarity and presence
  • Use every presentation as a tool to build visibility and influence

I teach in both English and Spanish, and I’ve guided clients to shine across industries and audiences. My mission is simple: to help you become the person people listen to, remember, and support.

With the right preparation, that can be you — and it can start in just 60 seconds.
