SpeakerSHIP: Steer Your Message. Anchor Your Impact.

Public speaking doesn't have to be scary-it just takes the right ship.

Whether you're delivering a keynote, pitching your startup, leading a team meeting, or dreaming of giving a TEDx talk, SpeakerSHIP gives you the tools to navigate any speaking situation with confidence. This approachable, illustrated guide is packed with bite-sized tips, practical strategies, and visual storytelling to help you speak more clearly, connect more deeply, and deliver messages that move people.

Written by four-time TEDx speaker, brand consultant, and communication coach Ryan Foland, SpeakerSHIP is the first book in the Getting Your SHIP Together series. With clever nautical metaphors, stick figure wisdom, and hard-earned insights from the stage, Ryan makes public speaking feel less like a performance-and more like a powerful conversation.

You'll learn how to:

• Overcome nerves and speak with confidence


• Craft clear, engaging messages that resonate


• Master vocal variety, tone, volume, and gestures


• Connect with your audience-whether online or in person


• Speak off the cuff without losing your footing


• Anchor your impact with a strong call to action

Whether you're new to speaking or want to level up your presence, SpeakerSHIP is your compass for becoming a more authentic, influential communicator.
