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

Its easier to speak freely when no one expects anything from you.

  • It’s natural

    Why it works?

    • Speaking out is essential. When you keep things inside it may be one of the reasons for stress and illness.
    • Speaking out to a complete stranger is easier and you can hang up the call at any moment.
    • We’ve created a safe and private environment.
  • No data stored

    Absolute privacy

    • We commit zero personal data collection.
      Nothing is collected and/or stored about you, not even an email.
    • Our payment gateway is Stripe trusted by big tech, we don’t have access to your CC data.
    • Calendly provides us booking service.
      It saves your email, so we don’t have to.
    • We filter out users from same locations automatically, so you don’t meet people you know.
  • You are on a drive seat

    Safety first

    • Listener is silent, it’s Speaker who decides if any feedback is needed.
    • Listener gets a half of Speaker’s payment.
      It attracts responsible listeners.
    • If you need extra support after the speaking session we will provide free complimentary video recording of session with scientifically proven EMDR from certified specialist. Worth a $150 private session.
