Writer · Content Producer · Speaker Advisor

The story is already there.
We help you find it, craft it and deliver it.

We work with executives and the people around them to uncover, shape and deliver the stories that move audiences — from the first conversation through the final applause. Content producing, story consulting and speaker advisory, all under one roof.

What We Do

Three ways we make your
message land.

01
Content Producer

We help you organize and shape your raw material — data, talking points, half-formed ideas — into scripts and visuals that hold together from slide one through the final moment. Keynotes, breakouts, video scripts, internal communications. Every piece supports every other piece.

02
Story/Writing & Refining

The most powerful stories are already inside your organization — buried in how something happened, why someone stayed, what a product actually changed. We listen until we find them. Then we shape them into connected narratives that give your audience a reason to care, and remember.

↳ Ken's core gift
03
Speaker Advisory

Anna doesn't teach a formula. She finds the version of you that's already compelling and helps you access it reliably — under pressure, on a strange stage, in front of an audience that matters. One-on-one, workshops, onsite support. Built around who you actually are.

↳ Anna leads this work

This work asks something of you.

We've done this long enough to know that the best results come when clients are willing to be challenged — on their assumptions about what's compelling, on habits that feel natural but don't serve an audience, on the version of the story they walked in with.

If you're looking for someone to tidy up your existing deck and send you on your way, we're probably not your people.

"This kind of work requires a real partnership. We're not vendors. We're collaborators — which means we'll push back, and we expect you to as well."
Ken + Anna

Two very different people.
One extremely coherent partnership.

Ken brings 30+ years of storytelling across theatre, film, television, games and corporate communications. Anna translates a lifetime of theatrical training into tools that work under the pressure of a real stage, with a real audience and real stakes. Together they cover the full arc from raw material to delivered moment.

What Clients Say

We'll let them
speak for us.

The Best Conference

Thanks to Message Glue, this is the best conference I've ever been to. Not our best conference. The best conference. I love how the message was woven through everything. Even the outside speakers were using our language. I never want to do this event without you.

A Remarkable Gift

Everyone has a different experience and comfort level with public speaking. Anna has a remarkable gift for meeting people where they are and helping them convey their message in a comfortable, conversational, professional way. Your investment in time with Anna will be rewarded.

I Trust You

Bottom line is — I trust you. I've used you for video, onstage presentations, advisory, writing, you name it. When I need to communicate anything internally or externally, my first thought is Message Glue.

Repeat Client, Multiple Engagements
It Became Instinct

It was not only about the content of your advice — it was about the approach you used to deliver it. It was delivered in a way that stuck with me so strong that it became instinct. Now that is powerful.
