I prepared a presentation for a wider audience at work and I genuinely tried to apply everything I’d learned with you. It went really rather well … and that was down to the work we did together.

Who this is for

The Practice Rooms is for professionals, presenters and founders who are sick of feeling like an Eminem lyric before speaking up.

↑ you know the one, about palms, knees and arms.

You’re intelligent, capable, and in most contexts you’re excellent. But in meetings, presentations, and high-stakes conversations, something gets lost.

✓You lose clarity under pressure.✓You speed up when nervous.✓You over-explain.✓You feel like the version of you in the room doesn’t match the one in your head.

If you’re being totally honest, it feels like your accent is holding you back.

*dramatic pause*

But is it actually?

3 in 10people with regional accents soften them at work to sound “professional”.31% of people with regional accents, Zurich UK and OnePoll survey, 2026

But as a qualified voice coach, I promise you that’s not an issue.

I’ve got an MA with Distinction from Royal Central, and I spent 5+ years teaching at RADA and LAMDA, two of the UK’s top drama schools. Here’s what’s really going on:

01No intentionYou know what you’re saying, but not why you’re saying it, right now. So it comes out flat.02TensionTight breath, tight shoulders, tight jaw. Your voice can only be as free as your body.03RushingYou speed through to dodge the awkward pauses, so your best points never land.04Over-formalYou swap your own words for “professional” ones and lose the warmth that makes people listen.

Nobody taught you how to use your voice. How to pace. How to hold a room. How to sound as credible as you are. So how could you know any different?

Knowing what’s expected of you…

Take J.

Her manager’s feedback was clear: brilliant technical work, but…

she needs more leadership, more presence, more visibility.

Reasonable ask. But where is she meant to practise that? She gets 30 minutes a week with her manager, if it doesn’t get moved, and a five-minute stand-up nobody’s really listening to.

So nothing changes. Let’s give her somewhere to rehearse.

…and having anywhere to actually build the skills
are two completely different things.

Why the Practice Rooms existAt work, you’re
playing a role.And you’ll get better at it when you practise your lines.My background is with actors. They get better because they’re always rehearsing, with notes, in a space built for it.At work, you do one workshop, then never practise again. So the same old nerves turn up at the next big moment.That’s why I built the Practice Rooms. Think of me as your director: holding your vision, coaching you through the scene and shaping your skills so you can give the performance of a lifetime.↑ me, mid-rehearsal

From Molly

I’ve worked with leaders and high-performing professionals for years and the pattern is always the same. People are far more capable than they sound. Not because they lack confidence, but because nobody ever gave them the actual tools. The Practice Rooms is where that changes.

FAQs

Common questions.

What happens in a Live Practice Session?+An hour with a professional voice coach on the foundation skills we teach at RADA and LAMDA: breath, ease, clarity and pace. You read the set text out loud and leave with one specific fix for your next meeting.How much time does it take?+Less than you think. The video lessons are short enough to watch on your commute. Then it’s two live sessions and one recording a month.How does feedback work?+Once a month you send me a recording. I tell you what’s changed and the one thing to work on next. No vague “great job”.I want to speak like you. Can you teach me RP?+I could, but you’d be performing, not speaking. We work on what actually gets you taken seriously: clarity, ease and confidence in your own voice.Is this accent reduction?+No, and that’s the point. You don’t need a different accent. You need yours to be easy to hear and to stop worrying about it. We work on breath, clarity and pace, so your accent stays yours and lands with confidence.Will I start picking up other people’s accents?+No. We work on technique, not imitation. Your accent stays yours, just easier to hear and more confidently placed.I’m not in a corporate role. Is it for me?+Yes, of course. If you speak for a living, you’re a professional voice user, and we can help you.Why are places capped?+So you’re not just a name on a Zoom grid. Everyone speaks in every session, and your feedback is about you, not the room.Why six months?+Because your voice is a muscle. Six months gives you time to practise, use it in real meetings, notice the difference and make it second nature. We set your goal in month one, so you’ll see exactly how far you’ve come.Can my employer pay?+Of course they can. Email me and I’ll send an invoice your company can process.
