About Us
As president of this company,
I can say unequivocally that Speak! Communications is a dream come true. Better – it’s the culmination of several dreams. Fifteen years as a major-market broadcast journalist. Four years in corporate public relations. Seven years as an executive in a public relations agency. Three years running an international communications training business within the agency. Each of those experiences took me deeper into the minds of journalists, communications experts and consumers. I’ve seen the business world from three distinct sides, and I’ve found there is one thing they all need – clear communication that connects each to the other.
Here’s what clients are saying about Lynn Espinoza

In today’s competitive global marketplace, it’s imperative for professionals of all kinds to speak well to do well. My passion is providing the tools to make that happen. My goal is to coach at the highest level, cajole when necessary, and always inspire my clients to speak to their most important audiences – clearly and authentically.
My official bio is below. But bios are more reflective of experience than of the passion grown through that experience. I wanted you to know.
