Confidence Course for Public Speakers

Confidence Course for Public Speakers - Confidence for Creatives & Communicators

Own Your Voice, Share Your Ideas, and Be Seen for Who You Really Are

If you’re a creative, a marketer, a speaker, or someone whose work depends on being seen and heard - you already know that confidence is everything.

You have ideas worth sharing, stories worth telling, and talent worth showing.
But sometimes, fear gets in the way.

Do you ever:

• Worry what people will think before you speak, post or present?

• Hold back great ideas because you don’t want to sound “too much”?

• Feel confident in your craft but nervous when it’s time to share it publicly?

You’re not alone.
Creatives and communicators often face the hardest kind of self-doubt - the fear of judgment or rejection.

That’s why I designed Confidence for Creatives & Communicators - part of my 6-Week Confidence Building Programme, specifically tailored for people who share their voice, work, or message with the world.

It’s your step-by-step pathway to build creative confidence, public speaking confidence, and the courage to express yourself authentically.

Why Confidence Matters for Creatives

Whether you’re presenting a pitch, performing, running a workshop, teaching, or creating content - your confidence directly impacts how your message lands.

The truth is, confidence isn’t something you either have or don’t have - it’s a skill that can be learned, practised, and strengthened over time.

In this creative confidence training, you’ll learn how to:

• Express your ideas clearly and authentically.

• Speak with calm assurance in front of any audience.

• Overcome the fear of judgment that blocks your creativity.

• Rebuild trust in your own voice and message.

You’ll gain practical tools to boost presentation confidence, whether you’re on stage, on camera, or in front of a classroom.

Meet Your Trainer – Adrian Close

When I was 19, I couldn’t even read out loud in class.
The idea of speaking in front of people terrified me.

Now, I’ve spoken confidently to audiences ranging from 12 to 900 people, led workshops across the UK, and trained leaders, educators and creatives to communicate with ease.

But I understand that for creatives, confidence feels personal.
It’s not just about public speaking - it’s about being seen.

That’s why this programme blends the practical side of communication training with deep emotional awareness - helping you quieten self-doubt, express yourself authentically, and connect with your audience.

About the Programme

Confidence for Creatives & Communicators is a focused version of my 6-Week Confidence Building Programme, built specifically for people who rely on communication, creativity, and self-expression.

It combines:

• Two weeks of tutor-led lessons and exercises, helping you master communication, self-expression and mindset

• A 30-Day Confidence Challenge, where you practise speaking, sharing and showing up — day by day

Weeks 1 & 2 – Learn, Reflect, Communicate

In the first two weeks, you’ll explore:

• Defining creative confidence - what it really means to be bold in your own voice

• Building communication skills that help you connect, not perform

• Understanding your “inner critics” -  perfectionist, people-pleaser, or self-doubter - and how to manage them

• Speaking with clarity and confidence in presentations or creative reviews

• Finding role models who inspire authenticity, not perfection

Each lesson gives you a mix of mindset tools and communication strategies you can use immediately - from presentations to creative collaborations.

Weeks 3 - 6 - The 30-Day Confidence Challenge

The final 30 days are all about practice and momentum.

Every day, you’ll take one small action to push your creative confidence forward — from posting a video, pitching an idea, or simply sharing your opinion in a meeting.

You’ll learn how to:

• Speak with authenticity on camera or stage

• Handle feedback and rejection with resilience

• Present ideas clearly and confidently

• Show up consistently - not just when you feel ready

• Reflect on progress to see how much you’ve grown.

By Day 30, you’ll feel a noticeable shift - calmness where there was anxiety, confidence where there was hesitation.

It’s the public speaking confidence course UK creators and communicators have been waiting for - practical, human, and genuinely life-changing.

"Every great leader was once a learner. Your journey starts today - one step at a time" (Adrian Close)
