SENIOR MEDIA TRAINING CONSULTANT
Message development, mock interviews and delivery practice, built around the interviews actually coming up.
What This Is
Media training prepares someone to be interviewed: focused message development, mock interviews and delivery practice.
It's built around the interviews or appearances actually coming up, not generic public speaking coaching.
Who I Work With
Founders, start-ups, small and mid-sized businesses, senior leaders, spokespeople and internal experts, across the UK, US, Canada and ANZ.
How I Work
A short brief call covers the interview, likely questions and where confidence is lowest.
I build a message map, three or four core points with proof points, then run live mock interviews with a bridging technique for difficult questions. Delivery is worked specifically for broadcast or podcast format.
Clients leave with the message map and direct feedback, and I'm available for a final check-in before high-stakes appearances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens during a session?
A short brief, then a message map of three or four core points with proof points, then live mock interviews with feedback after each one.
How do I prepare for hostile questions?
We practise them directly, using a bridging technique so you can acknowledge the question honestly and return to the point you came to make.
Is training different for podcast vs TV?
Yes. Delivery is worked specifically for the format, a long-form podcast rewards depth, while broadcast needs tight, quotable answers.
Who is this for?
Founders, senior leaders, spokespeople and internal experts, whether it's a first interview or a high-stakes appearance.
What do I walk away with?
The message map, direct feedback on delivery, and a final check-in before high-stakes appearances.
How many sessions does it usually take?
One focused session covers most upcoming interviews. Teams or unusually sensitive subject matter often warrant a second.
