SpeakUp Club I Cupertino

A Public Speaking Practice Club for International Women Professionals You probably already know you should slow down, breathe, make eye contact, and stop saying “um.” 😅 But knowing what to do and actually doing it when the spotlight is on you are two very different things. That’s why we created SpeakUp Club. 💜 A warm, supportive space for international women to practice speaking, step outside their comfort zone, get real-time feedback, connect, and grow together. What are we going to do? 🎤 Speak Up - Bring something you actually want or need to practice, step into the spotlight, and give it a try. 💬 Get real-time feedback - Receive professional, personalized feedback and practical tools you can use beyond those 5 minutes. 🎭 Play & experiment - Expect improv, acting exercises, voice and body work, and warm-ups to help you get out of your head and feel more comfortable speaking. 🤝 Connect - Meet other women, support each other, make friends, and laugh a lot along the way. :) We’ll work on your Mind, Message, Body & Voice, and Delivery - because becoming a better speaker is about so much more than choosing the right words. What should I bring? Your 5 minutes! Bring your pitch, presentation, introduction, part of your webinar, speech, story, or anything else you want to practice. (up to 5 min) And please don’t try to make it perfect before you come.This is your dry run. That’s the whole point. :)Do you have any questions? Let us know! [email protected] Your Facilitator Yulia Zherebtsova is a public speaking coach, actress, and immigrant who knows what it feels like to lose your professional voice when you move to a new country. Through The Limelight Hub, she helps international women in Silicon Valley find that voice again - to speak up in meetings, talk about their achievements without shrinking, navigate cultural differences, and feel like themselves in English. Her approach combines acting techniques, communication training, and firsthand experience of rebuilding a career in the U.S.💜 SpeakUp Club is recurring! We meet regularly, creating an ongoing space for international women to practice, connect, and grow together. Come once. Come again. Bring something new or bring the same thing and see how different it feels the second time. :)🎟️ Your spot: $75👥 Limited to 10 women to keep the group small, and give everyone time to practice.
