Does your voice disappear in certain rooms?

You know your work. You're confident with your team. But in front of senior leaders or when the stakes are high, everything you prepared disappears.

The unpredictability is the worst part.

Get the Framework

You used to speak with ease. But something shifted—a promotion, life transitions, a new role—and now your voice disappears in rooms where it matters most.

The inconsistency makes every speaking moment exhausting because you never know which version of yourself will show up.

What if this isn't about communication at all?

When your voice disappears, it's not because you don't know what to say.

It's because your attention splits—between what you want to say and how you think you're being perceived.

Your brain fog, your lost train of thought, your voice fluctuation, speaking too fast, the sweating, the blushing, the stomach distress, the shortness of breath—these aren't communication problems.

This is a focus issue. And focus is a muscle you can strengthen.

(yes, even if you learn differently—it’s all about honoring your own voice and building your own framework!)

Watch Lee’s TEDx talk about this work:

The Empathetic Presence Framework is my proven method so you can stop over-preparing and start trusting your ability to speak up when it matters.

Combining proven frameworks with your unique voice for sustainable confidence.

The framework is an 11-page PDF full of tools and exercise you can customize for your weekly meetings and presentations.

Empathetic Presence

The Framework walks you through three ways to create structure (without scripts!) to customize for your unique voice.

EMBODY

Grounded Presence & Managing Nerves

Get out of your head and into the present.

Anchor your attention so you can think under pressure.

Stop trying to be polished/professional/precise/perfect.

EXPERT

Accessing Your Expertise Without Over-Preparing

Stop scripting everything. Learn to organize your thinking on the spot.

Find the "10th floor" instead of starting in the details.

Over-preparation perpetuates the cycle.

EMPATHY

Connection Without Collapse

Stop absorbing everyone's anxiety.

Use your empathy strategically—as a focusing tool, not a distraction.

Re-center your audience without losing your center.

Access the framework

I created this framework as the playbook I wish I had.

I was unable to speak, but only in certain settings.

I was confident doing the work. But the moment I had to talk about the work—especially to people in positions of authority—I'd lose my personality (and my train of thought!).

Then I realized: perfectionism was making it impossible for me to be present.

The moment I stopped trying to "fix" my voice, I could speak fully and freely.

When I gave my TEDx talk, I had no nerves on stage. I use all my tools when speaking nerves do pop up. Most importantly, I trust my voice in every room I enter.

I built this framework from the work I've done supporting thousands of empathetic leaders over a decade.

And I want you to have it so you are heard right now.

What Shifts When You Trust Your Voice

More Respect & Authority

Stop proving yourself and start being recognized as the leader you already are.

“I never realized how much the fear of public speaking hindered my professional growth. After this work, so many doors and opportunities opened up for me. I wish I could go back and tell my younger self to jump on the chance to work with them earlier.”

— Chief Wellness Officer

Promotions & Career Growth

Step into senior leadership by confidently articulating your value and vision.

“Before my work with PresentVoices, I was convinced something was 'wrong' with me and that I was a 'bad communicator.' Lee helped me learn to trust myself and my voice."

— Psychotherapist

Ease Instead of Exhaustion

Stop over-preparing, over-thinking, and over-performing.

“I thought I had to change who I was to garner respect in corporate culture, but Lee gave me the toolkit to craft my own personal communication style that is uniquely mine.”

— Entrepreneur Ops Lead

This work is different:

It’s not about fixing you

There's nothing wrong with you. You're responding rationally to oppressive hierarchies and alpha-dominant cultures.

It’s not about performing confidence

You don't need to become someone else. You need structure to find yourself under pressure.

It’s not about memorizing scripts

Over-preparation perpetuates the problem. Learn how to organize your thinking on the go.

Your presence is your power. Your empathy is your focus. Your expertise is your authority.

Get the Framework and start expressing yourself even in rooms where your voice usually disappears.
