Youyi specializes in presentation training, focusing on topics such as presentations, executive presence, storytelling, personal branding, and speaking on camera. She uses mental fitness as a foundation to help individuals speak with greater confidence, engage their audience, and gain buy-in from stakeholders.

This approach fosters sustainable transformation and enables them to become more charismatic speakers.
