Your people know their work. Under pressure, the high-stakes presentation, the hard conversation, the moment everyone is watching, their skill does not always show up. Catherine shows audiences why that happens, and gives them what to do about it.

They leave calmer, clearer, and more able to lead the moment. Every talk draws on the Performance Under Pressure approach.

Signature talks

Four talks, four ways in.

Communicate Under Pressure

Finding the right words in the moment when tension, stress, and emotions are high.

Executive Presence for Everyday Leaders

Human skills, trust, and influencing clearly and effectively are now critical for performance.

Emotions at Work: From Survival Guilt to Conflict

How to handle emotions, both visible and hidden, as they escalate and repair, for easier collaboration and team energy.

Embodied Capacity is the Future of Resilience

Your ability to be with emotions, discomfort and deescalate are human skills. Beyond breathwork, what triggers stress, and what happens in your body and why. Relationships, posture, pauses, and slowing down are the new future skills.

Every talk is tailored to your audience, theme, and outcomes. Full descriptions available on request.
