Leadership Communication in Action | Executive Presence, Speaking Up in Meetings, Getting Women Promoted to Leadership
Are you being told to "step up" but no one can tell you what that actually means?
Are you performing well, hitting your targets, yet still second-guessing yourself in senior conversations?
Are you navigating leadership communication and executive presence but something still feels off?
If that sounds like you, you're in exactly the right place.
Leadership Communication in Action is the weekly podcast for high performing women ready to close the leadership communication gap so you're seen as credible, trusted, and ready for senior leadership.
Each episode gives you the practical communication skills, executive presence and female professional growth strategies that partners and senior leaders are actually looking for. No jargon, no fluff — just clear, actionable guidance in under 20 minutes.
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.

Leadership Communication in Action is a podcast for women who are capable, thoughtful, and quietly questioning how they’re showing up at work and in life.
I’m Liz Boswell. I work with professional women who don’t need more advice, but do need space to think clearly, especially when the pressure is on.
Each episode is a calm, mentoring-style conversation grounded in real client moments. We look at the stories people carry, the behaviours those stories create, and the small, practical shifts that change how things land day to day.
You’ll hear honest reflections, psychologically precise questions, and simple actions you can try immediately, without overhauling your life or becoming someone else.
If you’re stepping into more responsibility, more visibility, or simply feeling the weight of decisions that matter, this podcast is here to help you slow things down, think more clearly, and move forward in a way that feels grounded and real.
A quiet companion for people who want to make better moves, not louder ones.
