Hi, I’m Kevin. I’ve spoken at hundreds of events, performed one-man shows in bars and on stages, published a book, made dozens of teaching videos, and most relevant for this class, have given a new talk, almost every week, for over a decade.
In my early days of being a pastor it felt exhausting to come up with new content almost every Sunday. I believed in the message, but rarely felt I had the time, space, or even the ability, to prepare it properly.
That’s when I decided I was going to find a more sustainable and natural way to do public speaking. Ten years later I have coached dozens of people through my method and it’s done for them what it did for me: Made it fun and easy to speak good!
Testimonials
“After staring at a computer screen for hours, Speak Good’s analog and hands-on method to story-crafting was a breath of fresh air. It gave me the tools to organize and synthesize my thoughts in a new way. Kevin has not only mastered the skill of effective and authentic public speaking but he has developed a way to help others do so with the clarity and confidence of seasoned professionals. The unique structure of Speak Good has changed the way I will write, present and tell stories from here on out.”
- Miranda Crocket
“Kevin's method has a way of taking all your floating ideas around a topic and turning them into a talk that is not only clear but compelling.
It was so helpful for me to learn how to do this work in the creation phase so that when it came time to give the talk, I was able to be fully present to the message and the audience in a way I haven't before. This teaching is so powerful!"
- Jenn Arnold
