ChatAloud

Say it aloud. It's allowed.

Easy to talk to.
Hard to push around.

Five minutes a day of saying it aloud: the coffee order, the pay rise, and the conversation you've been putting off.

Free to start. One price if you stay. Nothing renews.

Say it. Hear it. Take it again.

1

Say it

Pick a scene and talk. Your partner talks back, pushes back, and softens when you earn it.

2

Hear it

See how it sounded: how fast you went, where you padded, whether you asked for the thing. Then hear the moment that mattered.

3

Take it again

One fix, with the words to use. Redo that beat, hear both versions, and carry the better one into the real thing.

Warm and firm at the same time

Most of us have half of it. Some people are lovely and can't say no. Some hold their ground and leave bruises. The people everyone likes and nobody walks over have both, and both can be practised.

Every pass includes everything: the Foundation, every scene, your own scenarios, and Before You Send. Fair use: four hours of live rehearsal every 30 days. Refunds within 30 days, by one email.

Share your link with a friend. When they finish the check-in, you both get a free week.

What we don't do

Keep your recordings

Your audio is scored and thrown away. It is never used to train anything.

Charge you twice

A pass has an end date, printed on it. When it ends, it ends.

Make things up

No body-language percentages, no power poses, no cures. Where a technique has research behind it we say so, and where it doesn't we say that too.
