What happens when a woman stands on stage and dares to speak about her body, her rights, and her pleasure? According to my observations, people take sides, but usually, nobody stays neutral.
In this episode of She Became CEO, I sit down with public speaking and communication expert Natalie Jones for a conversation that is as bold as it is practical. Natalie doesn’t just teach speaking techniques—she lives what she teaches by delivering speeches that stir, challenge, and empower.
We talk about:
-
Why courage matters more than polish in public speaking
-
The difference between performing and truly connecting with your audience
-
Natalie’s journey as a professor and coach who helps students and professionals find their voice
-
Her two most provocative prepared speeches: The Boys and Memories (about reproductive health and identity) and My Selfish Vagina (about women’s right to pleasure)
-
How women can reclaim their stories and stand on stage with an unapologetic presence
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a professional, or simply someone who wants to speak with more confidence, this episode will inspire you to bring more boldness to your voice. If you’re ready to improve your public speaking, interpersonal, and intercultural communication skills in a supportive, trauma- and brain-health-aware space, check out my new program She Knows Now.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
