Hi, I'm Liz Boswell - a leadership communication coach who spent years telling herself she wasn't a leader.
For a long time, that voice in my head was relentless. Someone else knew more, someone else had more authority, I didn't deserve to take up space.
So I stayed silent, sat on the sidelines, and watched others speak up in rooms where I had just as much right to be heard.
Until I finally realised - that voice was lying.
The shift didn't come from working harder or knowing more. It came from changing how I showed up and how I communicated. Once I understood that, everything changed and I walked away from a corporate training career to build my own coaching business focused on the one thing most leadership development programmes completely ignore: how women communicate at senior level.
Since then I've helped clients achieve real measurable results including supporting a supply chain manager to overcome imposter syndrome and step up to become a director,
In this podcast you'll learn how to:
*Speak effortlessly in high stakes meetings without over preparing or second guessing
*Understand different communication styles and adapt without losing your unique strengths
*Build presence and trust with senior stakeholders and partners
*Give and receive executive feedback with clarity and authority
*Navigate career transitions from technical expert to strategic leader
*Handle high stakes meetings, presentations and promotion conversations with confidence
*Strengthen your confidence at work without relying on external validation
This is not about adding more to your workload. It's about making small, intentional shifts in your leadership communication that change how you're seen, trusted and heard at senior level.
