Step Into Your Power. Speak with Confidence. Shine Like Never Before.
Why I Do This Work?
As a seasoned event host, radio host, and public speaking coach, I’ve spent years watching people rise—or stumble—when it’s their turn to take the stage.
I’ve seen powerful ideas get overlooked because they weren’t delivered with confidence. I’ve watched brilliant, ambitious women hold back, doubting themselves instead of owning their space. And I know, deep in my bones, that it doesn’t have to be that way.
Because I’ve been there. I know what it’s like to second-guess your voice, to hesitate instead of speaking up, to feel invisible in a room where you deserve to shine.
Spoiler alert: Your voice matters. And I’m here to help you unlock it.
I've been on the covers of magazines with my work. But my real credential? I’ve been exactly where you are. And I’ve found the way forward.
Now, I help ambitious women like you break through self-doubt, step into your power, and become magnetic, unforgettable communicators.
This isn’t just coaching. It’s a revolution – revolution of women's visibility!
The Shine With Maija Journey
I created Shine With Maija because I know what’s possible when women stop holding themselves back and start stepping forward.
Through my programs, I guide leaders, entrepreneurs, and experts on a transformational journey—one that takes them from self-doubt to unshakable confidence, from feeling invisible to commanding the spotlight.
Because here’s the truth:
Speaking with confidence is a skill, not an innate talent. You can learn it.
You have a voice. Your voice has power. And the world needs to hear it.
The stage belongs to you. The stage NEEDS you. You just need to claim it.
You’ve got the skills. The ambition. A message that deserves to be heard. But something is holding you back.
You struggle to express yourself with confidence and clarity. You feel like your voice gets lost in the noise, and it’s keeping you from stepping into the leader you know you’re meant to be.
You want to own the room, command attention, and communicate with confidence—without fear, hesitation, or self-doubt.
If that sounds familiar, you're exactly where you need to be.
