Voice for Impact Podcast

Did you know that up to 93% of your influence comes from HOW you speak, not WHAT you say? (Especially when what we say doesn’t match how we say it) This means you could be the most brilliant entrepreneur, but you’ll only ever be perceived at the level of your ability to speak confidently and clearly. And if you struggle to communicate your ideas to the world, your creations will remain only in your imagination, and your influence will fall short. Your voice is where it begins. This podcast is for visionary entrepreneurs, especially women of colour, who are ready to use their voice to be seen and heard, fulfil their greatest potential, and lead powerful movements. Hosted by Trang Nova— once a withdrawn introvert and now a globally-recognized speaking coach featured on TEDx and Medium, you’ll get weekly episodes of fun stories, real experiences and valuable learnings to use your voice for impact in your business and on stages. Your voice is your path to becoming recognised as a visible leader and creating your mark on this world. Are you ready?
