Brilliant Speakers Academy®
Inner Circle

with Victoria Lioznyansky, M.S., M.A.


I help high-level professionals, executives, and entrepreneurs boldly advance their career or business by obliterating public speaking anxiety from within and showing up with genuine confidence, authority, and influence.

As an ambitious, high-level professional, executive, or entrepreneur, you’re great at what you do… but do other people know that? 

Or is crippling public speaking anxiety holding you back? 

You’re pretty confident in your expertise. 

But as soon as all eyes are on you, that confidence goes out the window. 

Whether it’s a big presentation, an interview, or even a Zoom meeting, you just… freeze. 

That familiar lump grows in your throat, your palms get sweaty, and your knees shake uncontrollably. 

You’re miserable and your audience can tell. 

Instead of engaging them, you diminish your own credibility.

Or, worse.  

You completely avoid all speaking opportunities. Only to be left in the dust as someone else gets that promotion, client, or deal that you dreamed of. 

Imagine if you could…

  • Get up in front of any audience (on livestreams, podcasts, Zoom, or in-person) and speak with confidence and authority
  • Ace job interviews, sales calls, media interviews, and investor pitches with ease
  • Build your authority, expand your visibility, and get noticed so you can get that promotion, new position, or new client
  • Rest easy knowing you have the tools you need to stop anxiety in its tracks, navigate any unforeseen hiccup, and improvise like a pro
  • Exponentially increase your earning potential - by 20K, 50k, or 100K a year or more
  • ENJOY public speaking and start seeking out opportunities instead of hiding from them

From Anxious Engineer to VP & Thriving Entrepreneur


Hi, I'm Victoria!

I've been where you are right now. 

I used to be absolutely terrified of public speaking. One time, I literally ran off the stage in tears.

After that, the spotlight was something I avoided at all costs.

It didn't help that I was a massive introvert and English wasn't even my first language!

I knew I was meant for so much more, but I felt stifled. Like I didn’t have a voice.

As an ambitious executive with dreams of starting my own business, I knew I couldn’t reach my goals by continuing to hide behind the scenes.

So I tried everything to get over my fear… 

Like taking classes, going to Toastmasters, watching videos, and reading every tip I could find.

But nothing worked.

Most speaking programs out there weren’t created by people who’ve experienced public speaking anxiety themselves. So they rely on tricks and band-aid solutions instead of actually teaching you how to get rid of the underlying fear.

If you’ve ever been told to ‘keep practicing’ or had someone count how many times you said ‘like’, ‘um’, or ‘you know’ during a speech, then you’ve witnessed this firsthand.

These techniques polish your soft speaking skills, but they don’t build confidence. So you still end up panicking, shaking, and stumbling over your words when you get in front of that audience.

And continuing to practice in a state of fear actually promotes that state of fear. Meaning it becomes a habit. You start to feel fearful even thinking about speaking.

That’s why psychologists don’t treat phobias by just throwing a patient into a scary situation - they teach effective coping mechanisms and work on their mindset first.

Long story short, traditional public speaking programs are making your fear worse.

With a background in software engineering, I was determined to create an evidence-based approach to conquering my fear once and for all. And after years of trial and error, I finally got there.

Today, speaking in front of an audience is something I do with joy. It propelled my corporate career to new heights (from a software engineer to a VP of Operations) and helped me launch several successful businesses.

For example, I grew one of my businesses, Nutty Scientists of Houston, from zero to the #1 NS franchise in North America. And I attribute this directly to my communication and presentation skills.

I’ve appeared on Fox Morning News and have been featured in numerous publications, including NBC, CBS, and BizWest Media.

I started sharing my proven framework and helped 100s of executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals stop holding back and start speaking up.

Now, I want to help you, too!

Want to know why you haven't overcome
your public speaking anxiety after years of struggling through it?

Watch this short segment from my recent workshop to find out what's NOT working!

 

I have done a lot of public speaking classes as I embark on a career that also includes doing talks and coaching, and your program is by far the best that I have done! It really clicked for me and has made a real difference! Love your program so much.

I now have the dream job as a Senior Advisor for the Department of Corrections. I get to travel around New Zealand and I help train Managers be better leaders.

I present to a vast number of people around the country. Leaders, External Providers, Executive Leaders, our Maori Tribal Leaders, as well as speak in the communities and schools about what we do. 

I enjoy speaking now and I always use the Brilliant Speakers Academy training to help me write up my speeches and presentations. It has been so good, Victoria.

Who knew at 58 that you could keep learning and get up on stage and speak with confidence, passion and enjoy it!

Prior to joining, I was afraid of forgetting my speech, of not keeping my audience’s attention, and of not being enough to step into the spotlight.

Throughout the program, Victoria put me at ease and gave me a simple plan on how to handle my fears, how to structure my speech, what to do so that my speech feels like a natural conversation, and how to handle unexpected things. I highly recommend Brilliant Speakers Academy. In all honesty, this has been one of the best online programs I've taken in a while. It has been a true blessing!

Mara Dower
Marketing Strategist

You’re a good fit for the program if:

  • You’re an ambitious high-level professional, executive, or entrepreneur who’s ready to stop hiding in the shadows and start speaking up, so you can exponentially grow your career or business.
  • You know your stuff, but you struggle to show up as an expert and leader due to your fear of public speaking.
  • You’re tired of feeling paralyzed with fear and self-doubt for days (or weeks) before a meeting or presentation.
  • You’re worried you’ll make a mistake or choke on your words, losing credibility and putting your career in jeopardy.
  • You’re tired of missing out on opportunities that could land you that new job, promotion, client, or business deal you’ve been dreaming of.

This might not be for you if:

  • You’re not a high-level professional, executive, or entrepreneur. I teach what I know, so this program won't be as helpful for you
  • You’re not ready to invest time, money, and energy into this. Overcoming your fear of public speaking isn’t easy. But those who put the work in will reap the benefits.
  • You aren’t willing to “trust the process” and take feedback. This program works, but only if you’re open to it.

I did not hesitate to join Brilliant Speakers Academy. This is the best investment I have done in years. These classes have changed the whole perspective I had about public speaking.

I love the way Victoria guides you to get the best from you. She is always willing to help and support you. I am really happy and proud of being part of the Brilliant Speakers Academy. The sky is the limit and I am going for more!

The program gave me the confidence and tools that I needed to effectively speak in front of groups of strangers live or on video. Victoria is a coaches’ coach. Her coaching style is smooth, fun, entertaining, and very enjoyable. She coaches from a place of experience, authenticity, and honesty.

I would highly recommend her coaching and her program to anyone looking for help and guidance in the area of public speaking.

Stop letting opportunities pass you by!

How much has your fear of public speaking cost you in promotions, raises, clients, and business deals?

Imagine what your life could look like 3 months from now.

Will you still be stuck in the same boat? Paralyzed with fear and struggling to advance in your career or business, while you watch other people get ahead? 

Or will you start unapologetically speaking up, showing up as an expert and leader, and achieving your goals?

Truth is, if you wait until you’re ready, you’ll never be ready. And 6 months from now, you’ll be wishing you started today.

A lot of times when we have problems in life, we aim at fixing the symptoms; however, the Brilliant Speakers Academy program addresses the cause of the problem.

For me, I was able to gain confidence in the process of change that truly decreased my fears, increased my willingness to step out of my comfort zone and gave me the tools for long-term change. I feel empowered and am so thankful I found this program! It has made a huge difference in my personal life and in growing my business.
