Talent Development

"Charita helped me develop my voice and my rhythm for communicating my message at an important time in my career. She listened and created a plan that worked for me. She was always a step ahead, and I always felt prepared, with her coaching I was never caught off-guard by the media. She taught me how to own my story in a responsible way."

Sloane Stephens, 2017 US Open Champion

On-Air Development

"Charita’s voice coaching services were very helpful. She was able to drastically improve my voice in just a few sessions. Before the sessions, I didn’t feel confident in my voice or know how to use it properly as a reporter. Charita fixed my tone and taught me how I could use my voice as a tool to maximize my story telling. Now I feel more confident in my voice not only when I’m on air working but also in my regular life conversations. Her method of teaching was very clear and also personalized to me."

Crisis Resolution

"I found myself in a bit of a bind. I was playing in Sweden, a reporter asked me about the election and me not thinking was playing around about 48-hours later, TMZ had published an article about me saying a soccer player is not coming home because she doesn’t agree with Trump. Charita Johnson who out of the kindness of her heart called me and not even an hour later I had not only talked to TMZ and told the story of how I was taken out of context. I also had done my own video of what Charita told me to say to my fans, what it really meant to me. She allowed me to get my thoughts in process and she didn’t charge me a penny!

She has worked at ESPN for a long time and worked with athletes and for me she was my knight in shining armor. She took this huge thing which got me stressed out, scared and I didn’t know what to do...and I was coming home in a week. In a matter of 10-15 minutes she had calmed me down, allowed me to put my thoughts on paper, told me some things I could say and how the media would take it and how I should say it. And then, after that it was done! I couldn’t have done it without Charita."
