From Sore
to SOAR Turning the Pain in Your Story
Into a Soaring Saga of
Business Success
with Margaret Gill of Abundant Private Practices
Its all about your story.............
Most people are petrified of speaking in public
In fact most would rather die than speak in public ............ but speaking is the fastest way to grow YOU and your business.........so if you are serious about your business you MUST learn how to speak and more importantly learn how to tell your story.
Your Story is Your Glory
What most don't realise is that growing your business can become much easier when you know what your story is and how that story relates to your customers.
Once you understand your story, your story can shape your message.
Powerful messages create business success
This course will help you overcome your fear of public speaking in two days by giving you the theory of how I overcame my fear, then I simply let you tell your story.
The Power Is In YOUR Story
Have you ever noticed the minute someone starts to tell a story, everyone in the room turns to listen. By leveraging the theory of story telling, you can have this effect on your audiences too.
You will leave the weekend knowing how it feels to influence and inspire an audience just by being you.
Most every person on the planet has experienced some sort of pain and discomfort in their lifetime and this discomfort is often part of their story.
What most don’t know is that the messages in that discomfort is what makes you unique as a human being.
I have developed a gift for helping you to identify and act on the uniqueness that is you.
Your Inner Identity Holds the Key
I help you find what I call your inner identity. It is the one thing that defines you.
Most people can't discover their own inner identity for themselves because they are too close to it but with a little help from me - we can usually hammer your inner identity by the end of Sore to SOAR. If we don't ... I stick with you via phone until we do.
If you are serious about growing your practice and then going onto greater things, the one thing you have to be is unique and finding your inner identity is the way to find your uniqueness.
The thing I've found to give the greatest clue to recognising and then packaging your inner identity is your unique story. No one else has experienced your story in the exact same way you have so your story will hold massive clues as to who you really are.
The major problem is that you rarely get to tell that story in front of people who are 100% on your side and willing to give you 100% of their attention. If you are prepared to tell your story in the way I teach you over the weekend - magic happens.
Through your story I will help you find your uniqueness, craft your message and then show you how that could translate into your business.
This live event will help you in three ways
• Firstly you will learn the power of story telling
and how it applies to you.
• Secondly we will turn your story into a compelling
opening that will win over anyone in an audience of your
target market every time you speak.
• Thirdly you will gain new clarity, confidence and
courage in yourself, your message and who you are
really destined to work with.
On one level this is an event where I teach you what I know about speaking because speaking is THE fastest way to grow your practice and become known as an expert in your field.
If I hadn’t overcome my fear of speaking I would have sunk into oblivion years ago.
Anyone who has worked with me will tell you how much difference speaking made to their practice and their profitability.
BUT each time I teach this material something magical happens......
As people begin to understand their story, they also begin to understand that their story is directly linked to their practice and their life.
I’ll be totally honest with you– I had no idea this would happen!
BUT when I started teaching people to speak, miracles started to occur right in front of my eyes. As people were given space and permission to communicate who they really are..............they suddenly stepped into a new place of power and SHAZAM!
If you have ever seen the human spirit soar when placed under the spotlight, you will understand why the magic occurs.
So if you want to learn how to:
• Communicate with clarity and integrity
• Overcome your fears of speaking
• Learn the number one secret ingredient in speaking
• Get clarity in your messages to strangers
• Have the guts to have a go
• Speak from the heart using authenticity in your favour
• Manipulate the different energies of a stage
• Conquer the seven secrets of speaking
• Use story telling to enthral an audience
• Tell your story and “fit” your story to your message
• Experience what it feels like to be heard
• Own a room and love it!
........then this event is for you
But don’t just take my word for it
Here is some of the feedback from previous courses.
Here is what some of the Adelaide and Melbourne people had to say:

CASE STUDY
I had the great honour to have the gifted Queensland artist Denise Daffara in a recent Sore to SOAR workshop. Denise has generously allowed me to share her story so others get to experience the joy of appearing confidently at the front of a room.
As a highly acclaimed artist Denise was frequently required to speak at gallery openings of her work.
Here is what Denise experienced in her own words:
"I went along to the two day workshop with the thought that... I really disliked how I felt and performed when speaking in front of an audience, especially when under the spotlight and speaking about my artwork... but I had a burning desire to overcome this so I was intrigued that the 'Sore to SOAR' workshop promised to address all my concerns and more.
I loved the intimate atmosphere of having the workshop held in a friends home, and with only 5 other participants it felt like each one of us was given a chance to be heard but not overwhelmed as can happen in larger gatherings.
Margaret explained things in a unique and very informative way.... I went away after the second day not quite sure where I was going to take the information I had just learnied... I knew I had to fine tune a few things and Mz Margz generously offered to do a follow up phone conversation with me... so a few weeks later we had that chat... and by the end of the hour I had a bunch of amazing ideas that Mz Margz had the brilliance to gleen from my speaking about my artwork; highlighting things I didn't even realise I could use to inspire others & numerous workshop ideas.
I am so grateful for that valuable advice and most especially the way Margaret has the gift of seeing the diamonds in the rough, and being so quick and loving to shine the light on them.
That evening after speaking to M. I had a brainstorming session with a friend and put all I'd learned to use and came up with my own unique workFun/shop outline... my friend Linda had the wisdom to make me set a date... so on 23 Jan 2010 I held my first funshop... and thankfully my friend Mel had the foresight to catch it on film... and thanks to YouTube... I can share the joy and be reminded of how my stepping into my joy made each participant and myself feel fabulous. Thank you!"
Denise completed my workshop in November 2009 and ran her very first workshop in her art studio in January 2010 and you can see below the effervescent delight that exuded from Denise on video.
The transformation from a scaredy cat to the joy and confidence Denise radiates in this video bought me to tears. A friend said it is the most inspiring thing she has seen watching the women develop as they painted.
You too can experience the joy you see in this video and start running and speaking at your own event if you are prepared to heal by telling your story and then being prepared to step out and simply do what you do!
What Can You Expect from Sore to SOAR?
The first day is theory day and the second day you put it all into action.
Most courses teach you what you need to know then leave you to implement what you have learnt in your own time. Sadly most of what you have learned will be lost within 2-3 days after the event finishes.
This course differs drastically in that we don’t leave until you’ve got it.
You will implement what you have learnt over the weekend on the final day, which is also when you loose your fear.
Fear is a weird thing. It disappears once you walk through it the first time. You will be fully nurtured and supported as you work through your fear.
First Day:
• Registration and Meet and Greet
• Learn the 5 key things you need to understand BEFORE you speak
• Understand the 7 secrets that can make you a better speaker
• Get what you need to know to craft a great story
• Learn how you can earn the right to be on any stage
Second Day:
• The tables are turned. Each participant takes the stage and I sit back and critique you. You tell your story and we transform it into a powerful opening for any public speaking event you will be asked to do and then we will just let the magic flow.
So you will leave having mastered your fear. Everything is done in front of a small, intimate and totally supportive group of no more than six people who are going through the same thing you are on the day.
That’s how the magic occurs - we set you free in an environment where it's virtually impossible to fail.
Two things that I frequently hear at the event and as I speak to participants after the event is:
"I really felt heard for the first time ever"
&
"I am feeling heard all the time now - in every situation"
The results stun me and each time I have taught in this format I have been left speechless at the end as I witness everyday (often shy and wimpy) natural therapists find their inner power and step up and let us see the real person behind the facade.
I can promise you it will be one of the most incredibly humbling and awe inspiring things you will ever experience.
In fact I can guarantee to you that you will never have experienced anything like this to date unless you have been to this event before - you've read the feedback - none of us quite know what happens ......... but it happens!
