Media Training ● Presentation Training ● Public Speaking Coaching
Pitch Coaching ● Executive Communication Coaching & Consulting
With a clientele that includes startups, Fortune 500 companies, and other public figures and thought leaders, as well as people who are just starting out in their fields, results from my work have included raising millions of dollars, increased sales and productivity, and delivering excellent speeches, presentations, and media interviews.
Change your communication, change your life!
My 30-plus-year career (at some point you stop counting) has been devoted to helping thousands of people improve their communication skills from the inside out and the outside in.
While many clients have come to me to help them achieve goals and solve problems that might seem impersonal or all business, there is always a very human, personal component to our work. Mindset, emotions, and thought patterns directly influence our communications and approach to various situations.
My approach is comprehensive and centers around creating a strong foundation that provides you with structures and tools to analyze situations, create powerful content, and develop true confidence, not just “fake it ‘till you make it.” (This doesn’t mean you will never lack confidence again, but you’ll have the tools to increase it and move beyond fear.)
How can I help you?
- Want to feel clear about your content, better prepared, and less anxious about presentations, speeches, or media interviews? I’ll take you through the steps to clarify your messaging strategically and authentically, increase your confidence and manage those nerves, and polish your delivery.
- Preparing to pitch to investors, or are you already pitching and getting nowhere? I’ll help you strengthen the weak spots, from your deck to your delivery, to answering the toughest questions. (This is why my clients raise money and win pitch competitions.)
- Wondering if you could be more effective as a leader if your communication skills were sharpened? We’ll assess what’s working well and the growth opportunities, and then follow a plan of action to enable you to make the inner and outer shifts to lead with confidence and empathy.
- Could your team communicate more effectively with one another, customers, or you? We’ll clarify goals, identify challenges, examine current systems, and create a plan to elevate the team’s communication skills and close any gaps that could impede progress.
I got hooked when I was 18.
My fascination with the field of communication began when I took my first classes in communication during my freshman year in college. After that, I was hooked.
When I got deeper into my studies of public relations, I loved the blend of psychology, strategy, and business that it encompassed.
Being able to help clients not only create and clarify their messaging and strategies to achieve their goals but also remove the obstacles that are preventing them from showing up at their best is what drives and fulfills me.
What happened organically is that as I worked with clients to solve their public relations problems and help them achieve their business objectives, they came to me for help with other communication challenges and initiatives. That led me to expand and eventually shift my concentration away from publicity and toward media and presentation training, public speaking coaching, executive communication coaching, and communication consulting.
Communicate with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
Whether I’m coaching an executive, training their team, or preparing someone for the stage to face the media or investors, I am always encouraging, yet I challenge clients to do the work to show up at their very best. You want to “leave it all on the field,” as the saying goes.
No matter the situation, you will never go wrong if you communicate with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
You may have seen some of my clients in outlets like these.

While I haven’t put much time or effort into my own PR efforts because I’ve been busy, here are a few of the outlets that reached out to me for interviews, some of which happened the same day! (This is why it’s good to be ready to go.)
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“Lisa has been a great pleasure and has enhanced our team’s abilities from the moment we met her. With her guidance and support over a very short period of time, our team’s confidence and ability to present have grown tremendously.”
Jarred Walker
Co-Founder, GCX
“I look forward to each interaction with Lisa. She takes the mystery out of presenting and arms you with simple concepts that build confidence in everyday communication while simultaneously making you aware of how you may be perceived. Her process and teachings are enjoyable and produce immediate results.”
Greg O'Connor
Co-Founder, GCX
“I worked with Lisa to develop and polish a keynote and she was a phenomenal presentation coach. Lisa created a safe, inviting atmosphere to practice and provided direct, specific, constructive feedback – ranging from strategic to tactical – that dramatically elevated both the quality of my presentation and my presence. I recommend her highly!”
Dina Denham Smith
Executive Coach & Owner, Cognitas Coaching
“Lisa is an all-star pitch coach! She is incredibly thorough when it comes to giving feedback to enhance your presentation and spares no detail. I specifically appreciate how she’ll take the time to comb through your content and take the seat of the audience to ensure no stone is left unturned in your pitch. She is a very calming presence which puts you at ease, and is extremely generous with her time and expertise. She truly wants the best for her clients and is the consummate professional in her field.”
Sashee Chandran
Founder and CEO, Tea Drops
“Lisa Elia has been instrumental in preparing our leadership team to tackle interviews across all mediums (live TV broadcasts, recorded TV, print, and digital media). Her friendly, but firm, training has helped to reshape the way we think about speaking to journalists – focusing on clear, concise answers to the journalist’s line of questioning as well as how to get our core message out to consumers even when not prompted to do so. The best part is once training is complete, Lisa doesn’t just leave you hanging. There is always opportunity for further follow-up and analysis to continue to improve our PR and media efforts.”
Jeff Bishop
Director of Marketplace Operations, Soothe.com
"Lisa Elia’s expert coaching helped me to show up in a powerful way for my very first public speaking engagement in front of an audience of 40,000+ women. Lisa’s approach was everything I needed to meet the expectations of this women’s empowerment conference. The resources that Lisa provided served as a strong anchor in preparation right up to the moment I set foot on that stage. Working with Lisa each week challenged me to grow and to evolve in ways that I would not have ever imagined before now. I am beyond grateful for Lisa’s guidance, expertise, and support throughout this process."
