Toastmasters have helped me to better organize my thoughts and speak confidently in high stress situations and in public. I also like having the “safe space” to give and receive feedback as that helps both the giver of the feedback and the receiver of the feedback learn and grow. 

Where else in my world could I find that little bit of magic experienced in a weekly Toastmaster gathering?  We share the fun of learning about each other and the world we live in; there’s no place like it. 

I love Toastmasters because it fosters an inclusive environment with opportunities for each member to grow both personally and professionally. Toastmasters self-paced programs are designed to meet each member where they are, regardless of the level of skill or experience. The programs cater to member needs whether the goal is to develop your own skills – or utilize them to inspire others. 

Why I love Toastmasters? I love Toastmasters because hands down it is the single best encouraging organization I have ever come across to attribute my consistent personal and professional growth.  I have been able to bust through glass ceiling after glass ceiling due to the tools I have acquired right here in my own back yard.  It is the single greatest investment I have ever made in myself, Theresa Mickelson, Club Growth Director – 3rd ranking officer in Toastmasters International District 19.  AND, the greatest news is, it is available for you, too.  Come join us, have fun and become a better you!

Toastmasters for me provide an intentional way to push and expand myself to be the best me, in a fun, manageable, goal oriented environment filled with incomparable support!
