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.
Your speaking challenges aren't about communication skills. They're about fragmented attention.
You know your stuff. But when the pressure is on, your attention splits—half on your message, half on how you're being perceived.
That split causes everything: the mind going blank, the lost train of thought, the physical symptoms.
Understanding the problem is one thing. This framework gives you the solution.
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.
The framework is an 11-page PDF full of tools and exercise you can customize for your weekly meetings and presentations.
EMBODY
Grounded Presence & Managing Nerves
Get out of your head and into your body so your nervous system regulates and you can think clearly under pressure.
EXPERT
Accessing Your Expertise Without Over-Preparing
Stop scripting everything. Learn to organize your thinking on the fly and trust what you know in the moment.
EMPATHY
Connection Without Collapse
Use your empathy strategically as a focusing tool instead of letting it scatter your attention.
How this works:
Unlike traditional communication training (which teaches you WHAT to say), this framework teaches you WHERE to put your attention.
You're not memorizing scripts. You're building flexible structures you can customize for:
Meetings with senior leaders
Presentations and public speaking
Difficult conversations
Moments when you're put on the spot
Any situation where your voice tends to disappear
Who is this for?
This framework is for you if:
Your mind goes blank even though you know the material
You can't think clearly when the stakes are high
You freeze when someone asks you an unexpected question
You over-prepare obsessively but still feel unprepared
You're confident in some settings but your voice disappears in others
This framework addresses the root issue: Fragmented attention and nervous system activation under pressure.
It's based on 10+ years of work with thousands of leaders at companies like Google, Salesforce, and Disney—adapted specifically for empathetic professionals whose voices disappear under pressure.
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
Your presence is your power. Your empathy is your focus. Your expertise is your authority.
