“I worked with Ferrell in preparation for my TEDxPasadena Talk, one of the most challenging and fulfilling experiences of my life, and I’m so glad I had her as a my coach! From day one, she took the time to get to know me better and my goals for this event. Something that had me petrified was that I had to memorize my talk and I had never memorized even a phrase in my life! I’m used to public speaking, interviewing in front and behind the camera as a tv host/journalist for Spanish speaking networks but would use a teleprompter or headset aid when on air. Ferrell encouraged me to use breathing techniques to navigate the roadmap we created, soaking the spirit of the story in my mind, rather than the words. This tool remains with me as a treasure, because I feel that now it is so much easier to write and memorized presentations by using emotional images of the facts to hit the words than the other way around. I’m looking forward to using all I learned from her on my upcoming YouTube Channel.”
