My name is Denice Stainbank from Crest Connect Club in Hillcrest, Durban, South Africa and I have been really enjoying my Toastmasters’ journey since joining in February/March this year. I have really grown in my public speaking and have been able to co-host a retreat, transformation dialogues with an audience of intellects all over South Africa and in London, Europe. I have also joined leadership as the Vice President of PR and have extensively enjoyed my role as I’ve been able to apply it to starting new social media pages for our club and in various aspects of my own small business and work. I have also started my own podcast on Mzansi Digital Radio where I host talks and sometimes guests every Monday and Tuesday. Toastmasters gave me the key to trust my voice, leadership skills and to speak confidently.
