Speak Out: A Listening Friend Who Truly Cares

Your safe, private space to be heard

Sometimes, what we need most isn't advice or solutions, it's someone who truly listens. Someone you don't have to explain everything to. Someone who's just there, with kindness and no judgment.

At Speak Out, you meet a trained listener, like a calm, caring friend who's here just for you. No pressure to dive into anything heavy. You can take it slow, feel how it goes, and build trust over time.

Whether you want to share something you've been holding in, or just need a safe space to breathe, we're here to listen. Gently and privately.

4 easy steps to speak out

How it works

At Speak Out, you're not talking to a chatbot or a stranger who's "just doing a job". You're meeting a real person, someone trained to listen with care and respect, like a thoughtful friend. You don't have to dive into anything deep. Just take the first step, feel how it goes, and build connection over time.

  1. Choose a listener you feel drawn to

    We're a small team led by experienced psychologists, and each of our 4 trained listeners brings a warm, grounded presence. Browse short profiles and see who feels like the right first step. Trust your instinct.

  2. Book a time that works for you

    Pick a 30-minute slot using our private calendar (via Calendly). No account, no pressure, your privacy stays protected.

  3. Join your private video call

    This is a space just for you. Speak as much or as little as you like. Your listener will meet you gently, without judgment or expectation.

  4. You stay in control

    You can hang up anytime, pause, or stay silent, it's all okay. If it feels good, you're welcome to come back and keep building the connection.

In few words

It's easier to speak freely when no one expects anything from you

  • Why it works?

    This could really help

    We're not always able to share what's on our minds with the people closest to us. There's pressure. There's fear of being misunderstood or judged. Sometimes, you just don't want to explain everything.

    That's why speaking to someone outside your world, a trained and caring listener, can be surprisingly freeing.

    • You'e not interrupted or rushed. Someone is fully present for you, for once, it's all about your voice.
    • There's no emotional baggage. Listeners don't carry history, bias, or expectations about your life.
    • You don't need to explain everything. Say as little or as much as you want, you're free to speak in fragments.
    • You're reminded you're not alone. Even strangers can hold space for you with compassion and care.
    • You feel lighter. Sometimes just saying it out loud, without fixing it, releases the weight.
  • No data stored

    Absolute privacy

    • No sign-ups or personal accounts. You don't need to create an account or share your full name. Just book a session and show up.
    • No recordings ever. Calls are never saved, stored, or accessed. What you share stays between you and your listener.
    • Location privacy. Listeners are never shown your real location. Listeners are residents of EU and never from UK or USA, so you won't run into anyone from your town or city.
    • No data collection. We don't store any personal or session data. Payments and bookings are handled securely through well known 3rd parties: Stripe and Calendly.
  • Safe to Speak

    Emotional & Mental Safety First

    • No judgment. No advice (unless you ask for it). You won't be told what to do or how to feel. This is about listening, not fixing.
    • Boundaries are always respected. You never have to answer anything you don't want to. You control how deep the conversation goes.
    • You can end the call anytime. If something feels off or overwhelming, you can leave without explanation. That right is always yours.
