Learn from Someone Still in the Arena
Drawing on two decades of experience as a broadcaster, journalist, keynote speaker and performer, Zara works with senior leaders, entrepreneurs, authors and organisations to help them communicate with greater confidence, credibility and impact.
Unlike many communication coaches, she is still operating at the highest level of the industry she teaches. As a current BBC presenter, journalist and international keynote speaker, Zara continues to work across television, radio and live stages, bringing real-time insight and practical experience to every coaching programme.
Her career has taken her from national newsrooms and award-winning ITV productions, including This Morning, to presenting BBC television and radio, delivering keynote speeches to audiences of 14,000 at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena, and collaborating with organisations including The New York Times.
Alongside her private coaching, Zara has delivered training for the Press Association Media Academy and is an Associate with The Edge, working alongside former BBC Head of News Atholl Duncan to develop exceptional communicators and leaders.

Sometimes these kinds of sessions can be impersonal and cold but this defintely wasn't the case with Zara. Her warmth and manner made
the day really enjoyable.
Ashley Douglas, Scottish Government
I can’t believe my performance was transformed in just one day! This entirely exceeded my expectations and I am so glad I invested the effort in doing this and sought Zara's professional expertise ahead of a big year
Ashley went on to launch her acclaimed debut book, With My Own Hand, and generously acknowledged Zara's coaching in the book's closing pages.
Network Rail
It was a short, high‑energy workshop on what makes presentations engaging, with lots of practical tips you could use straight away. It was well delivered and passed quickly.
One to one coaching
Zara accepts only a limited number of private coaching clients each year, working almost exclusively through recommendation and referral. Her clients include FTSE 100 CEOs, senior executives, founders, authors, keynote speakers and high-profile professionals navigating career-defining moments.
Every coaching programme is entirely bespoke. Whether you're building a six-figure keynote speaking business, developing your signature keynote, mastering the leadership talks that define your career, preparing for a major presentation, book tour or board meeting, or stepping into a new leadership role, every session is tailored to your goals.
Drawing on two decades of experience as a broadcaster, journalist, keynote speaker and performer, Zara combines executive coaching with communication strategy, storytelling, media training and presentation coaching wherever it will have the greatest impact. Together, you'll develop the confidence, clarity and presence to influence audiences, command the room and communicate with authority when the stakes are highest.
PRESENTATION & SPEAKER TRAINING
Whether you're taking your first steps into public speaking or refining a keynote that's already earning you standing ovations, every programme is tailored to your experience, ambitions and goals.
Available as one-hour masterclasses, conference workshops, or intensive half-day and full-day coaching, Zara works with both organisations and individuals to develop confident, compelling communicators.
Training begins with mindset, understanding nerves, building confidence and learning how to channel adrenaline into energy. From there, coaching focuses on the practical skills that make exceptional speakers: presentation structure, storytelling, keynote writing, metaphor, voice, pace, body language, audience connection and executive presence.
Every programme blends proven methodology with extensive practical exercises, giving participants the opportunity to learn, practise, refine and perform in a supportive environment, with personalised coaching and feedback throughout.
media & Crisis training
Whether you're facing your first interview or preparing for a major national media appearance, every programme is tailored to your experience, confidence and objectives, from complete beginners to seasoned spokespeople and senior executives.
Learn from someone still operating inside today's media landscape. As a current BBC presenter, journalist and newspaper columnist, Zara continues to work across television, radio, podcasts and print, giving clients real-time insight into how journalists think, what makes a compelling interview and how stories are shaped.
Available as one-to-one coaching, team workshops or full-day executive programmes, every session combines proven communication frameworks with practical, hands-on rehearsal, including on-camera interviews, role play and forensic feedback.
Clients develop clear key messages, repeatable techniques and practical communication toolkits they can use long after the training has ended. Where required, Zara also works alongside PR and communications teams to prepare messaging for campaigns, announcements and high-profile events, with the option of training in professional TV and radio studio environments for the most realistic experience possible.
"This was by far one of the best media training courses I have ever attended. So many tangible insights that I can take forward and not just theory!"
