Testimonials
Kristen L. Pope is an incredible media coach. I’ve been blessed with many coaches and mentors in the journalism/ media profession, but I can say without a doubt I would not hold the position I currently hold in my first full-time Reporter role for KBTX News without her help. Kristen’s knowledge and real-world approach to coaching prepared me for the newsroom. Her clear instructions made it virtually impossible not to succeed. Kristen was easily accessible whenever I needed her and always had a word of encouragement. After my job search and throughout my career, she has consistently stayed in contact with me and remains a trusted advisor. Kristen’s On-Air Academy online coaching modules combined with coaching calls were keys to my being successful.
I recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, sincere, and deeply passionate coach who cares about their clients.
I hope this email finds you well and you are enjoying this holiday season with loved ones.
We spoke in October in my one-on-one session with you. After this conversation, I truly took your advice and became “still”. In this time, I’ve gained more clarity as to what it is I want to do and my hope for the new year is to continue working towards a prosperous career in journalism and storytelling.
Since we spoke, I have produced a news package for YR Media and had the privilege to produce my first on-air promo for my team at NBC News.
I am excited for the new year and just want to thank you for your guidance this year through the On-Air Academy and our one-on-one conversation.
Happy New Year!
As an author of 13 books, I wanted someone to run me through the paces of talking about a couple of my books. I could not have asked for a better person than Ms. Kristen L. Pope.
Ms. Pope shared with me insights about the media interview process that made me more aware both as an interviewer and an interviewee.
I went into the sessions feeling very unsure about being interviewed because I am so much more comfortable as a writer. But through Ms. Pope’s masterfully curated practice sessions, I began to feel that there was no need to shy away from making media appearances.
I believe that there’s more to learn from Ms. Pope’s media training program, so I plan to return again and again as I seek to get even better at operating in the dynamic new world of multimedia channels now available to us.
