Hi, I’m Maria, welcome to my channel!

I’ve gone from a shy kid who dreaded speaking up… to hosting national TV, a travel show in China, working with the United Nations, and doing a TEDx talk.

Along the way, I learned that public speaking isn’t about being flawless, it's about connection and authenticity.

But there are definitely tips and tricks to help us appear more confident and self-assured.

So grab your coffee (or tea), hit subscribe, and follow along on my journey.

P.S. If you dare go through my old videos, I have something to confess: I started this YouTube channel almost 10 years ago as a sneakerhead, transitioned to vlogs, then disappeared for a while as I began working. But now I'm back and ready to share confident public speaking tips!

Thanks for stopping by :)
