Confident You was created by Andy O’Sullivan and Brian Guo, two coaches who have personally experienced presentation anxiety and meeting anxiety in their own careers. They understand what it feels like to have ideas ready but hesitate to speak when it matters.
​With over 20 years of combined experience, Confident You provides one-to-one public speaking coaching for UK professionals who want to speak up clearly in meetings, handle questions without freezing, and present with confidence at work.
​​
Coaching focuses on real workplace situations. Speaking in meetings. Presenting to senior leaders. Answering questions under pressure. Sessions are practical, personal, and shaped around your role, challenges, and career goals.
​
We also deliver corporate public speaking training for teams who want to improve communication, confidence, and contribution in meetings.
​
Coaching is available in London and online across the UK.
Meet the Founders Who Overcame
Public Speaking Anxiety
Brian Guo
Co-Founder
From Staying Silent to Global Head
As a non native English speaker working in London, Brian had ideas but stayed quiet in meetings due to fear of being judged for his accent. He watched more confident colleagues speak up and progress while anxiety held him back.
​
After overcoming his fear and learning to speak confidently in meetings and presentations, Brian progressed into senior leadership and became a Global Head. Seeing how this shift changed his career, he dedicated himself to helping UK professionals overcome meeting anxiety and speak up with confidence at work.
​
Working in fast-paced professional environments in London, Brian understands the pressure of speaking up when senior colleagues are present. He supports UK professionals who feel judged for how they sound, how they phrase ideas, or how they come across in meetings.
Brian's coaching focuses on helping people speak clearly, respond confidently when questioned, and contribute without freezing in high-pressure work situations.
Andy O’Sullivan
Co-Founder
5-Time Bestselling Author, 20+ Years of Training UK Professionals
Andy spent years staying quiet in meetings because of anxiety and fear. He watched colleagues who spoke up get noticed and promoted, while he was overlooked. When he signed up for a public speaking training event, a panic attack stopped him from attending. Standing outside the building, terrified and struggling to breathe, he left.
​
He forced himself to return the following week and face his fears. After overcoming his presentation anxiety and fear of speaking, he progressed to senior leadership by speaking up confidently in meetings and presentations.
Today, Andy provides one-to-one coaching in London and online across the UK, helping professionals overcome meeting anxiety and build confidence to speak up at work.
