She is a wonderful coach, and I highly recommend her to become your trusted advisor on future speaking engagements!. -Je'Nen M. Chastain, Marketing Manager

She has helped me with both the technical aspects of public speaking as well as the mindset shift needed to remove the internal doubts and barriers that stand in the way. I highly recommend her.

Travia is a great trainer and coach. I have attended two of her workshops recently and they helped me to prepare myself better for speaking and marketing opportunities. She is a good listener and judge of ways to improve techniques, but also is obviously very knowledgeable about strategy and theory. Jim Bergdoll, Urban Planner
Travia is a phenomenal speaking coach. I attended one of her workshops and it was highly informative – who knew public speaking is both a science and an art!
