Hi, I’m Julie.
Prior to starting Softly Inspired I enjoyed a long career as a software and database developer. It wasn’t until mid-career when I realised that my fear of public speaking was becoming a serious handicap for me. With great support I eventually turned my fear into love and my new business was born. I now seek to provide that support that I was given for my clients.
In my spare time I deliver talks on women’s history and perform my own poetry around the Suffolk area.
Softly Inspired
Through Softly Inspired I offer 1 to 1 and group coaching helping women who are looking for more confidence when speaking about the businesses they are creating. I’m also available for speaking engagements online and in person.
Softly Inspired, The Vision
Having overcome my own challenges I realised that I had been held back by the perception that speakers are born and not made. The initial vision for my business was quite different from how it looks now, but as soon as I began networking with other business owners I saw a need that I was determined to address. At that point a new vision was born. That vision is to see all women who dare to create their own businesses and income streams to be confident speaking about themselves, their aims and achievements.
Business opportunities may offer equality, but equity still needs a hand.
