Tyla's Impact Journey

How Tyla Went From Feeling Stuck, to Securing Speaking Gigs and Reconnecting with her Inner Spark

Before coaching with Penny, Tyla felt…

  • A build-up of overwhelming inner conversations, making it hard to see her inner spark
  • Disconnected from her purpose, life had become about paying bills and managing responsibilities
  • Unclear on how to break into the world of speaking gigs and what steps to take

Why did Tyla decide to coach with Penny?

Tyla was drawn to Penny because of her incredible track record in public speaking. Tyla was curious and saw working with Penny as an opportunity she couldn’t pass up.

“From our first conversation, I was captivated by Penny's curiosity, wisdom, and ability to make things doable for others. I just wanted to keep having conversations with her. That’s what makes her invaluable.” Tyla

  • Penny’s ability to use her language, skills and education provided an invaluable contribution and perspective for Tyla 
  • Penny’s coaching style, which combines deep connection with actionable frameworks, felt like the perfect fit
  • Tyla liked that Penny created a safe, welcoming space and her sense of curiosity enabled Tyla to be curious about herself

What did Tyla take away? 

Tyla’s experience with Penny was transformative, bringing her back to her true self. 

Tyla learned…

  • To ask for what she wants, understanding that hearing “no” is part of the journey to getting a “yes”. Tyla found the work they together did on purpose and reframing rejection, life-changing
  • To make a Hell ‘yes’ list as simple tool to guide her decision-making
  • To map out the ‘hero’s journey’ when writing speeches. Tyla could see how her personal stories became a powerful contribution, using this framework

“I learned how to take ‘no’s. It was a game-changer—understanding that I can’t get ‘yeses’ unless I’m willing to face ‘no’s. That’s how I got my first speaking gig.”Tyla

What does life look like now? 

Now, Tyla feels emptier - in a good way! 

“I was so full up with everything that was going on in my life and the weight it created on my soul. I feel like space has been created for new things to grow.”Tyla

As a result, Tyla can recognise her fight, flight, and freeze responses. This self-awareness has helped her understand who she is in those moments, and how to bring herself back to who she truly wants to be.
