GET TO KNOW ME
I’m Francisca.
After graduating in Political Science & International Affairs at the Nova University of Lisbon, I moved to the Netherlands to pursue my passion for classical singing. Holding a bachelor and masters degree from the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, I sing professionally and coach speakers from the business world.
I became a Body-Language and Micro-expression coach, and a certified Trainer of NLP with the International Institute of Neurolinguistic Programming.
Shortly after, I was interviewed for Forbes on “Why your CEO needs a vocal coach?“, by Carol K.
I worked as an Effective Communcation and Accent Softening Senior Coach for London Speech Workshop, and today I pair my private practice as a Public Speaking Coach and Facilitator with collaborations with the THNK School of Leadership Development.
HERE'S WHAT THEY'RE SAYING:
Working with Francisca was such a joyful experience! She puts you at ease straight away and is so knowledgeable and fun! Preparing for a scary public appearance isn’t easy, but with Francisca by my side I felt like I was gaining so much useful experience that I will use again and again. Instead of feeling like hiding, I came away with the techniques and self-belief to enjoy public speaking, making videos and TV appearances. She’s practical, she’s kind and very perceptive, and she’s an opera singer so she REALLY knows how to use her voice! I highly recommend working with Francisca if you want to showcase your work or talents in the best way.
This training I had with Francisca did more than teaching me how to use my voice and communicate. I recognized postural mistakes, limiting beliefs and even some fears which were stopping me from excelling. As my skills grew, I was able to better trust myself and my work.
Now I am able to communicate authentically. “That which I am” is present in my words, cadence, pitch, posture… without this training what I had to offer seemed empty and boring. I lost my fears and I learned to communicate with emotion and genuiness. This was truly impactful for me. I never imagined that through my goal of training my communication for a workshop, I would learn to communicate better in general, and acquired so much confidence and motivation for my work.
It was a very surprising and interesting session due to its immediate effect, allowing me to achieve a new vision on my way of communicating. For professional reasons I have been doing presentations for many years and I never realised certain aspects that were revealed in this coaching session in such a clear way. The language, the explanations, the examples and several suggestions of practice, drive us in a perfectly balanced way, and the most curious is the confidence that we feel rising and the ease in which we face presentations after these discoveries... with absolute genuineness and a smile, from beginning to end!
I loved the session with Francisca, I discovered small details that I used in my communication, that I had never noticed before and that make a big difference in the way I communicate and by making a few small changes I can have a more captivating communication.
Thank you so much Francisca and keep up the good work!
