“I had a session with Sydney to prep for a key note speaking opportunity I [had] coming up. I’ve spoken to large crowds many times before and may have done fine without a session, but I am extremely thankful I had a session with her. I feel completely prepared and confident for my presentation. I wish I would have met her sooner for past presentations.

“Ms. Parriott is fun, energetic, and incredibly easy to work with. She combines professionalism, kindness, and effectiveness in a way that. makes every session productive and enjoyable. I continue to schedule sessions with her whenever I prepare for an important presentation.”

“This was one of the best investments in myself I’ve made in long time. Sydney is my communication coach and she’s wonderful at her craft.”

-Bryan F.

She has an infectious enthusiasm for communication, and it makes every session energizing. The course is also really well organized—her slides are clear, polished, and easy to revisit between sessions.

She took the time up front to understand what I wanted to improve, and everything since then has been targeted to my goals. She pinpointed patterns in my communication and gave me practical changes to work on right away. The feedback is direct but never uncomfortable—she’s supportive and genuinely wants you to succeed.

I had no idea this was EXACTLY what I needed. Sydney's depth of knowledge and experience in the science of communication has helped me take things to the next level. Her technical expertise on all things communication is incredible—ranging from slide deck presentation to voice and speech mechanics and breathing to body language. She's provided me with nonjudgmental and customized technical support that's transformed how I approach presenting. I thought we would just do a few sessions, but I'm kind of hooked—there is SO MUCH to learn. My message is landing better with my audience and I'm having more fun.

During her workshop, Sydney gave a thorough survey on many topics such as talk preparation, reducing anxiety, speaking tone and pitch, and having the presence of recognizing types of one-on-one conversations. It was one of the few trainings that I've ever been to where I was engaged for the entire time and could've stayed for more! We all walked away equipped with an arsenal of tools for knowing how to develop talks appropriate for our audiences, which is not only a boon for our business but enables career growth for so many of our technical staff.
