“Being a full-time professional speaker isn’t easy, but Jason helped me make it happen. What started out as a few ideas about potential speaking topics, turned into regular corporate speaking work and keynotes in front of thousands of people. If you’re looking for a breakthough coach, you’ll want to talk to Jason.” Kristin Light, Professional Speaker & Mistress of Charisma
Because you want a coach who knows the craft and the business.
Jason Reid is more than a speaker coach. He’s a master storyteller, former TV producer, and screenwriter who’s spent over 30 years turning complex messages into powerful, audience-ready content.
He cut his teeth pitching scripts in Hollywood, then spent two decades leading national newsrooms, where he coached some of Canada’s top on-air personalities to connect more authentically with millions. As a professional speaker himself, Jason has keynoted conferences on three continents and built a successful business helping others do the same.
He knows what makes a message land—and what makes a talk bookable.
Today, Jason brings that experience to coaches, entrepreneurs, authors, and change-makers who want more than just “feedback on their talk.”

Examples of Success Stories
“I hired Jason to help me write my keynote and I knew as an Indigenous speaker who speaks on the Rise of the Sacred Feminine, I wasn’t going to sound like everyone else. This didn’t phase Jason at all. With his exceptional listening skills and masterful insights, he tackled my drafts and my doubts with a rare grace. Jason made me feel like my work was valuable, and he always brought out the best in me.”
“Working with Jason on my signature keynote has been incredible. He helped me elevate my stories so they’re not only captivating but also relevant and relatable to my audience.
