The fastest path

is not going it alone.

The complete 6-step Power of Presence programme — plus fortnightly live sessions with Heidi in a small, hand-selected group of senior women at the same level as you.

You bring your real meeting. Your real challenge. Your exact situation. Heidi tells you precisely what to shift — not a framework to interpret, a specific answer for your specific room.

Small cohort · 30-day Presence Promise

Here is the truth about presence work that nobody tells you.

You can learn the frameworks on your own. You can work through the modules, take notes, intellectually understand exactly what needs to change.

And then you walk into the board meeting — and your voice tightens anyway.

"Presence doesn't change through information.

It changes through application — and specifically, through the moment when someone who has done this for 30 years watches how you're showing up and tells you, precisely and immediately, what to shift."

On your own: you try something, you're not sure if it worked, you second-guess, you over-adjust. Three months later — same loop.

With Heidi: you bring the exact meeting, the exact challenge, the exact conversation.

She tells you specifically what to change. You walk into the next one with a precise adjustment.

That's not months. That's the next two weeks.

How many more promotion cycles, missed opportunities, and Friday replays are you willing to absorb while you try to figure this out alone?

One promotion changes everything.

At Director and VP salary levels, a single promotion cycle delivers a meaningful lift in base pay, bonus, and long-term compensation — not to mention the rooms you access, the decisions you influence, and the trajectory for the following decade.

The women inside this programme are not waiting years for that moment.

They are creating it.

"Jennifer had been passed over for promotion three times. Six weeks into the programme, her company created a Director position specifically for her. She didn't wait to be evaluated — she led the conversation."

What is one more year at the wrong level costing you — in salary, in momentum,

in the opportunities you're not in the room for?

The 30-Day Presence Promise

In your first 30 days, apply one technique in one real meeting

If you don't feel a meaningful shift in how you show up and how others respond — email my team for a full refund of your first month. No conditions. No questions.

I offer that because I know what this work does. And once you feel the difference, there is no going back.

Results

"I walked into my performance review differently. I didn't wait for them to evaluate me — I led the conversation. Three weeks later, they created a Director position specifically for me."

Jennifer — Financial Services

"By week three, my team noticed before I did. I stopped explaining and started directing. That was new."

VP of Product — Global Tech

"What's different here is the specificity. Heidi doesn't give general advice — she watches your exact situation and tells you exactly what to shift. That's not coaching. That's precision."

Head of Strategy — Professional Services

"I used to leave every leadership meeting feeling like I'd disappeared. Six weeks in, I'm the person people look at when the room goes quiet."

Finance Director — Global Consulting

Who This is For

• Directors, VPs, GMs, Heads of Function, Partners, and Founders ready to move now

• Senior women with a high-stakes moment on the horizon — a promotion push, a restructure, a new executive role

• Leaders who want direct access to Heidi and the accountability of a small group at the same level

• Women who have been trying to figure this out alone — and are ready to stop absorbing the cost

CUT HERE

Every month you carry this gap, it is costing you.

Not just in salary or title — in the weight of

being underestimated every single day.

Here is what nobody told you.

The women who struggle most with presence are almost never the least capable people in the room.

They are the most capable ones.

You were built for depth. For substance. For delivering.

You were rewarded — your whole career — for the quality of your output.

Nobody ever told you that at a certain level, the game changes.

"Output stops being the differentiator.

How you are experienced becomes the differentiator."

Whether people feel your authority before you've spoken.

Whether your ideas land — or get absorbed into someone else's confidence. Whether decision-makers picture you in bigger rooms when you're not in the room.

That is a skill. A learnable, teachable, practicable skill.

And the fact that you don't have it yet is not a character flaw.

It's simply a gap that nobody in your career ever closed.

Until now.

I started exactly where you are.

Invisible in rooms I had worked hard to earn a seat in.

My voice tightened under pressure. My ideas disappeared.

I prepared more than anyone else in the building —

and somehow it still didn't land the way it should.

That gap — between what I knew I was capable of and how I was being experienced —

became the question that shaped the next thirty years of my life.

The answer came from an unlikely place.

China changed everything.

I went to China as a trained actor from Australia — passionate about communication and connection, but not yet certain of my own authority. What happened there was something I could never have predicted.

I became China's first foreign television host. The only foreigner licensed to live broadcast on Chinese national television. Six million viewers. Every day. Under pressure. In real time.

And in a single 90-minute broadcast — I drove two million dollars in sales.

That wasn't luck. That was presence. And it taught me something I have spent the rest of my career teaching others: led, and solved. You have been the reliable one, the trusted one, the one everyone goes to when something needs to be done properly.

And somehow — it's still not translating.

Ideas you voiced in a meeting get credited to someone else. Opportunities that should have your name on them go to someone with less experience and more presence. The promotion conversation keeps getting deferred.

What You Get — The Complete Programme

Module 1 — Your Leadership Foundation

Before anything changes externally, you need to know exactly what you're building toward.

– Understand exactly how presence drives influence at your level

– Identify your natural authority strengths — and the specific patterns undermining them

– Create your personal leadership effectiveness baseline

– Build the vision that guides everything that follows

Module 2 — Your Leadership Identity

This is where limiting beliefs get replaced with something solid.

– Break free from the 'good girl' operating system that keeps capable women small

– Rewire self-doubt at the root — using what neuroscience actually says works

– Establish the standards you expect in professional settings — and how to hold them

– Speak with the kind of authenticity that builds trust and commands rooms

Module 3 — Flipping the Presence Switch

The pivotal module. Internal work becomes external impact.

– Master the 30-second grounding ritual Heidi uses before every stage and boardroom

– Structure messages that resonate with any audience — and land in one pass

– Drive meetings with clear objectives instead of simply participating in them

– Create an elevator pitch that makes you unforgettable in 30 seconds

Module 4 — Mastering Your Presence

Voice. Body. Silence. The non-verbal signals that communicate authority before you've said a word.

– Own powerful silence that commands attention — without filling it

– Transform your body language to signal that you belong and you lead

– Develop vocal techniques that ensure you're heard clearly, not talked over

– Use eye contact strategically to build connection and project authority

Module 5 — Commanding the Room

High-stakes situations: owned.

– Handle being challenged mid-sentence without losing your thread or your warmth

– Navigate difficult personalities and charged dynamics with composure

– Project energy that turns heads — techniques from 30 years of live television

– Make fast, clear decisions under pressure instead of going blank

Module 6 — Sustaining Your Power

Transformation only counts if it holds.

– Build your personal Presence Blueprint — your ongoing operating system

– Master energy management so you arrive at high-stakes moments ready, not depleted

– Create a leadership legacy that extends your influence beyond the room

– Establish the daily rhythms that make presence effortless over time

"Authority is not something you are born with.

It is something you build — deliberately, precisely, and permanently."

Not by becoming louder.

Not by performing confidence.

Not by copying a leadership style that was never built for you.

By learning exactly how authority is communicated — not performed.

And then doing it so consistently that the room doesn't question it.

Thirty years of pattern recognition.

Since leaving television I have spent three decades inside boardrooms, leadership programmes, and coaching rooms — across Australia, China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and the UAE.

I have trained senior leaders at BP, Ford, IBM, Fragomen, Alibaba, Twinings, and McCain. I have chaired AustCham Shanghai, sat on the board of the University of Southern Queensland, and built and led multiple businesses.

I know what a VP presence looks like versus a Director presence. I know what's one small adjustment away — and what needs deeper work. I know the difference between a voice issue, a nervous system issue, and a belief issue. And they each need a completely different fix.

That pattern recognition took me thirty years to build.

When you work with me, you get to borrow it.

Why I created The Power of Presence.

Because I kept watching the same thing happen.

Brilliant women — Directors, VPs, GMs, Founders — delivering exceptional work, managing complex teams, holding organisations together. And being invisible in the rooms where their careers were being decided.

Overlooked for opportunities they had earned. Credited with reliability and not with leadership. Watching less capable colleagues move faster because they knew something she didn't.

The Power of Presence exists because that gap is closeable.

Every single time.

And once you close it, no one can take it from you.

What Changes, and How Fast

These are not transformations that took years. They happened in weeks. Because presence is not a journey — it is a skill.

And skills, when taught precisely, change fast.

"I had been passed over for promotion three times. I came into Heidi's programme convinced my problem was political, not about presence. Six weeks later I walked into my performance review differently — I didn't wait for them to evaluate me, I led the conversation. Three weeks after that, my company created a Director position specifically for me."

Jennifer — Senior Manager → Director, Financial Services

"Within two weeks something had shifted that I couldn't fully explain. I stopped explaining myself and started directing. My team noticed before I did. Six months on, I'm being considered for a role two levels above where I was when I joined."

Claire — Head of People, Global Technology

"I used to walk out of every leadership meeting feeling like I had disappeared. I had good ideas. I had experience. Nobody was listening. After six weeks with Heidi, I'm the person the room looks to when things go quiet. I don't know how else to describe it — I became someone people believed."

Sarah — Finance Director, Professional Services

"The grounding technique alone was worth everything. I used it before my first board presentation in a new company. I got through it without a single moment of voice-shake, and the CEO told me afterwards it was the clearest presentation he'd heard from anyone in that role. That was week three."

Michelle — VP of Strategy, Scale-up

"I've had executive coaches before. What's different about Heidi is the precision. She doesn't give general advice — she watches your exact situation and tells you exactly what to shift. It is not coaching. It is pattern recognition applied specifically to you."

Anna — Senior Director, Global Consulting

Ask yourself honestly:

how many of these women could be you —

if you stopped waiting for the room to catch up?

The Power of Presence

A programme built for one specific woman: senior, capable, and not yet consistently experienced as the authority she is.

Not a mindset course. Not public speaking training. A precision system for Directors, VPs, and Founders who need authority that holds under real pressure — in leadership meetings, difficult conversations, and high-stakes rooms on Teams and Zoom.

Executive Group Mentoring — the heart of the programme

This is where the fastest change happens.

Fortnightly live sessions with Heidi. A small, hand-selected group of senior women at the same level as you. You bring your real meeting, your real challenge, your exact situation. Heidi tells you precisely what to shift — not a framework to interpret, a specific answer for your specific room.

You also get the complete 6-Step Power of Presence Method — all 24 practical classes and workbooks — from day one. Plus live skills workshops, the Executive Presence Community, and every bonus resource from Heidi's thirty years on stages and in boardrooms.

What changes

– You walk into high-stakes meetings with a plan, not a prayer

– Your ideas land in one pass instead of disappearing or being absorbed

– Your voice is steady under pressure — including on camera

– You stop replaying Friday and start driving Monday

– Senior leaders experience you as someone ready for bigger rooms

The 30-Day Presence Promise

In your first 30 days, apply one technique from the programme in one real meeting or conversation.

If you don't feel a meaningful shift in how you show up — and how others respond to you — email Heidi's team.

Your first month will be refunded in full. No conditions. No questions.

That offer exists because the work works. And once you feel the difference, there is no going back.

A free technique — from inside the programme

What I do in the 60 seconds before every stage and boardroom.

This is the grounding technique I've used for thirty years — on Chinese national television, in Fortune 500 boardrooms, and before every high-stakes coaching session. I teach it on day one of The Power of Presence.

I'm giving it to you now, for free. Use it before your next meeting. Notice what changes.
