Hi, I’m Kim Widlicki
I'm a communications professional and business coach who has spent over a decade presenting to audiences of all sizes — from small team meetings to conferences with hundreds of attendees across multiple countries. But my passion for presentations and public speaking started long before that.
I've been fascinated by presentations since my first school "exposé" (cutting out images of llamas in Peru and gluing them onto poster board, before the internet existed). While other students dreaded presenting, I looked forward to it. That early passion led me to study communication and eventually build a career where presenting became a core part of my work.
I truly enjoy everything about presentations: the storytelling, the refining of a message, the design of slides, and the public speaking itself — connecting with an audience and offering them something valuable.
What drives me
Throughout my career, I've sat through countless presentations. Often, the speaker clearly knew their topic and had interesting insights to share. But I kept seeing the same thing: so much potential for real connection and engagement that just wasn't being unlocked.
That's what excites me about this work — helping people find their authentic voice and discover that presenting can actually be enjoyable. Not by teaching generic techniques, but by working together to find what works for you.
