Speak Up With Confidence
No Matter Who’s Watching.
I’ve spent thirty years as a professional actor, I know what it feels like to face the camera, step onto stage or wait in the wings with your heart pounding. I’ve navigated countless auditions, opening nights and high-pressure performances – and I’ve experienced the anxiety that can come with all of it.
After over ten years as a yoga teacher (trained in India, Australia and Bali) and discovering the transformative power of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), I found what actually works for performance anxiety. Not just breathing through it or “thinking positive” – but releasing the fear at its root.
Now as a certified EFT practitioner, I combine my lived experiences as a performer with proven mind-body techniques to help others move from panic to presence. Whether you’re facing an audition, giving a corporate presentation, delivering a wedding speech or simply want to stop dreading speaking up in meetings – I understand your world because I’ve lived it for three decades.

Hi, I’m Roz – a long-time actor, yoga teacher and EFT Practitioner. I’ve been lucky enough to be in some of the most iconic Australian films; Muriel’s Wedding and The Dish. On television, I spent ten years on Shaun Micallef’s Mad As Hell on the ABC, where I played over one hundred and fifty characters including my personal favourites Dolly Norman and Vomitoria Catchment. and As a writer my work has been included in a Best Australian Comedy Writing Anthology and my solo theatre shows have toured international.

My Acting Journey
Muriel’s Wedding — Feature Film
Role: Cheryl
Director: P.J. Hogan
“I booked a pack of one-on-one sessions with Roz –
and that’s where the real magic happened. With her humour, intuition and a few perfectly timed EFT rounds,
Roz helped me untangle the messy threads of my presentation and weave something truly connected and alive.”
“Roz isn’t just an EFT coach and performer, she’s a creative, grounded human who helps you find your own rhythmical magic. She certainly did for me and I’m genuinely proud of what we achieved together – a presentation that felt authentic, centred and joyful.”
“Roz is a total gem. Warm, funny and really knows her stuff. I love that she explains the science/logic about each exercise before showing it and before us trying it. Highly recommended.”
“I love the way it was presented in such a calming way. To also hear that it can happen to anyone. Thank you so much Roz.”
“Roz identified with her own experience in such a connecting way, that allowed participants to feel the shared commonality of the tricky emotion of anxiety. I highly recommend this workshop.”
“Roz created such a safe and comfortable space to learn something a little different. Although the session was called Presenting/Public Speaking Anxiety Toolkit, I walked away with real tips and techniques I can use in so many other situations too!”
