About this Event
Charm City Speakers is a 90-minute experience designed to help participants strengthen confidence and comfort expressing their authentic selves when speaking.
Created with a focus on accessibility, encouragement, and real-time practice, the space welcomes entrepreneurs, creatives, professionals, organizers, and community members at beginner and intermediate experience levels.
Attendees get to practice in front of others in a tender and boundaried space. Unlike traditional speaking workshops focused solely on performance, Charm City Speakers emphasizes confidence-building, nervous system awareness, authenticity, and community connection.
