“I had the amazing good fortune to find Helen when I enrolled in her excellent TEDx speaker training (Land and Deliver) course.
I found her to be super professional, enthusiastic, and extremely helpful.
Working with her gave me priceless inspiration and self belief, and it is in large part thanks to her that I recently landed my TEDx talk with TEDx Frankfurt. Thanks a million, Helen!“
Hi, I’m Helen
I’m a verbal communications strategist, podcaster and speaker coach, helping people increase their impact authority and reach through the power of their words.
I spent 15 years in the corporate world helping leaders deliver complex (and often quite dry!) messages in compelling ways to thousands of people.
Along the way I picked up a nifty little tool called storytelling and realised that literally ANYONE, no matter how inexperienced or unconfident, could use it to connect with an audience, build trust and make a big impact.
I’ve been on the journey too.
I spent a good few years hiding due to some life stuff. I lost my voice and vowed never to stand up and speak in front of people again.
After hitting a crunch point and committing to make a change, I gave a TEDx talk at the Brighton Dome, and have since gone on to help people land and deliver their own.
My journey has led to running speaker training programmes, live conferences, workshops, online courses and signature and keynote talks and becoming a TEDx event curator and speaker coach too.

“So, I was lucky enough to be invited to deliver a TEDx talk yesterday! Something I’ve dreamed about for a long time.
After doing some research, speaker coaches were advising I have at least 3-6 months to prepare….
But I was told I was selected 3 days before the event… whilst in the middle of filming a documentary!
Big shout out to Helen Packham for the coaching session to get me ready in time!”
