Speaking Confidence Series: Eliminating Filler Words

Led by Tricia Veldman, MS CCC-SLP in collaboration with Emerald Coast Storytellers

Join us for an interactive workshop at Distillery 98 where we'll tackle the pesky habit of using filler words in your speech. Um, like, you know what I mean? We've all been there!

The ability to speak clearly - without verbal clutter - is incredibly empowering in both professional and social settings. Trusting yourself to concisely convey you rmessage fosters confidence in any speaking environment.

In this 90-minute class, you'll learn to speak with intention and clarity by reducing excess verbal clutter.


The workshops in this series are designed to stand alone - so even if you haven't attended other events, you won't be behind! If you have attended previous classes, this workshop will build on what you've already learned.


Doors open at 6:00pm

The class will begin at 6:30pm
