Why Do You Need to Level Up Your Skills Now?
The Challenge
In the early 2000s, our attention span was 12 seconds. Today? It’s just 8.25 seconds — shorter than a goldfish’s. This means your presentations are competing with TikTok, viral food videos, and 9-second motivational clips.
If your speech isn’t engaging from the start, you’ll lose your audience before you make your first point. In today’s noisy world, the ability to captivate an audience has never been more important.
The Opportunity
Here’s the good news:
The art of public speaking ensures your message doesn’t just land but resonates. With the right techniques, you’ll craft presentations that grab attention, keep it, and leave an emotional impact.
This course will teach you how to transform your speeches from forgettable to unforgettable — no fluff, just strategies that work in our fast-paced world.
The Challenge
78% of people fear public speaking, yet it’s rarely taught in schools. That’s where you come in.
With consistent practice and the right guidance, you can leap from anxiety to authority. I went from nervous beginnings to confidently speaking in front of 2,000 people in just 6 months.
Now it’s your turn. This course has everything you need to overcome stage fright, connect with your audience, and deliver world-class performances.

Message from our Founder
My Origin Story
My name is Kailash Sarma, and for much of my life, I suffered from debilitating speech anxiety and a severe speech impediment. This led to me being bullied constantly. I struggled to talk to my friends, my family, and somehow, I would always pretend to be sick whenever I needed to speak in front of strangers... what a lucky coincidence.
It was only when my mentor taught me the power of public speaking that my life began to change.
I went from struggling to communicate with others to speaking confidently in front of over 2,000 people in a single year. In less than five years, I was presenting on TEDx, starting my own company, and working in my dream fields—from Investment Banking to Venture Capital.
Learning how to speak in public has transformed my life—financially, mentally, and physically.
My relationships with my family and friends shifted. I went from being a shy, stuttering, anxiety-ridden guy to someone who could walk into any room and feel confident, regardless of the scenario or setting.
Now, you might be thinking, “This is BS!”
There’s no way a transformation like that is possible. And trust me, I thought the exact same thing when my mentor told me about the benefits of learning public speaking.
But here I am: the guy who couldn’t speak to anyone is now running a company, working in my dream job, and speaking on the TEDx stage.
A part of you might not believe that you can go from where you are to your dream destination (and we talk about why in the masterclass). But that’s okay, because I’m here to show you that it is possible. You can become everything you’ve ever wanted. In fact…
I’m willing to cross No Man’s Land with you.
What is No Man’s Land?
No Man’s Land represents the journey from your current situation to your dream destination in life.
Sadly, No Man’s Land is the place where no flowers grow, where it’s filled with traps and grenades, and the constant firing of heavy artillery ensures that many people fail.
But don’t worry—I’ve got you. Just like my mentor guided me, I’m here to lead you through the trenches. I’ll show you where to step, shield you from the machine-gun fire of anxiety, and help you climb over the barbed wire of nervous energy to safety.
See, I don’t know exactly what’s on the other side of No Man’s Land for you. For me, it was the ability to travel the world, land my dream job, represent Australia internationally, and build meaningful relationships.
For you, the other side might look like:
-
Securing that next big promotion you truly deserve
-
Being able to speak up at meetings and share your ideas that can make a real difference
-
Having those difficult conversations with your family or loved ones
-
Gaining the confidence to talk to that cute girl/guy at the party
-
Asking for a pay rise to pay down your mortgage or upgrade your car
Take a moment to ask yourself: What do you really want, but have convinced yourself you don’t have the ability to achieve?
What is that one goal—or those goals—that you’ve always wanted since you were younger, but you’ve convinced yourself it’s impossible because of something you believe is out of your control?
If you were like me, you might have convinced yourself that the trench you’ve dug is all you need. That the sludgy, muddy walls of your limiting beliefs are somehow safe.
But I also see that spark in you—that desire to cross No Man’s Land, to peek over the trench and see the light, the opportunities, and the success waiting on the other side. You’ve wished there was a way to navigate safely, without getting blown up by landmines.
Maybe you’ve seen someone—a friend, a colleague, or even a family member—who’s already where you want to be. Deep down, you wish you could be there too. How do I know this? Because I was exactly in the same place. And if it weren’t for my mentor showing me the path—telling me where to put my hands and feet—I wouldn’t be here, able to help guide you.
Now, it would be my honour to help you cross No Man’s Land because I’ve already safely navigated it, helping hundreds of people along the way. I’ve learned where to step, what to watch out for, and how to ensure you get to the other side safely. In fact, this is what I’m most passionate about in life—helping you walk through your own transformation, step by step.
The big questions....
Did you know that 78% of people suffer from speech anxiety? That means that all other things being equal, if you want to reach an elite level in life and career, all you need to do is learn how to speak in public.
Now, let's talk about the consequences of the fear of public speaking:
-
It Prevents You From Getting A Promotion
-
It Prevents You From Building Amazing Relationships
-
It Prevents Your Ideas Being Heard
But here's the thing—you already know this, right?
You’re already aware of how important it is to speak up and communicate effectively. You understand the benefits that come with mastering public speaking, but the fear, anxiety, and self-doubt still hold you back.
So why haven’t you acted on this yet?
Maybe you’re unsure where to start, or you feel like public speaking is just an intimidating mountain to climb.
That’s exactly why I’m here—to help you conquer that fear and unlock the confident speaker within you.

Public speaking is terrifying. People are watching you. Hundreds of eyes are waiting for you to stutter. You might forget your lines and humiliate yourself in front of everyone. I totally get it. I was in the same place, paralyzed by fear and convinced I wasn’t cut out for public speaking. The thought of failing was so overwhelming that I would avoid any speaking opportunity at all.
But here’s what I want you to understand: On the other side of that fear lies a world full of incredible opportunities. I’ve travelled the world to speak, secured my dream job, and built amazing relationships—all because I conquered my public speaking fears. And now, I want to help you do the same. I want to guide you through No Man’s Land, the place where fear, doubt, and self-sabotage hold us back from our true potential.
Only you know the true extent to which you are holding yourself back. But let me tell you: The power to change is within you.
Public speaking is a powerful tool that boosts confidence, breaks down barriers, and helps you overcome challenges. It transforms how you present yourself, enabling you to navigate fear and self-doubt, much like driving at 120 km/h with full control.
Mastering public speaking empowers you to face challenges, influence others, and lead with presence and energy. It enhances every area of your life—from career growth to personal relationships—by giving you the confidence to seize opportunities and communicate effectively.
At Academy of Speakers, we see public speaking as more than just a skill; it’s a life-changing superpower. It helps you conquer your inner critic and navigate life with resilience and self-assurance. When you speak with confidence, the world truly opens up for you.
