    $25K to Speak on Stage: Is Paying to Speak Worth It?

    Welcome to Fame-Ready! This week, Katrina Owens breaks down paying to speak at events, why it counts as paid PR and when a sponsorship is worth it. After seeing several posts from women who paid $25,000 USD to speak at an event, Katrina shares her take without shaming anyone who made that investment. She explains how a paid speaking opportunity can build brand awareness and brand authority and why it only pays off when you have a contract, real deliverables and data behind the decision. From signing a contract and looking beyond stage time to booths, swag bags and marketing touch points, Katrina shares what she looks for in a sponsorship, using her own $5,000 USD investment in Like Minded Live as an example. She also explains why a stage you pay for should not be one of your first speaking engagements and how starting small helps you build the experience and data you need. You'll learn: Sign a contract first. A Google Doc is not enough to protect your deliverables on a big investment.Invest in more than stage time. Look for a sponsorship with a booth or table, swag bags and marketing touch points.Start small and build data. Use smaller stages, workshops and virtual summits to learn how speaking converts for you.Tune in to this episode of Fame-Ready for an honest conversation about paying to speak, knowing the difference between a scam and a reasonable investment, navigating the gray area of speaking and PR and remembering that "Speaking is 100% a business."

    How to Show Up When You’re Not Feeling It

    Welcome to Fame-Ready! This week, Katrina Owens gets real about what it looks like to run a personal brand-based business when you simply do not feel like showing up. After weeks of being sick, feeling disconnected from content creation and questioning the noise of the online business world, Katrina shares what she is doing to slowly find her spark again. Personal branding is not about creating a bigger, bolder or more polished version of yourself online. It is about getting people on board with who you actually are, how you treat people, what you believe and the perspective you bring to your work. And sometimes, building that brand means learning how to keep moving forward even when the person behind it is having a hard season. You’ll learn: • Separate yourself from the business when you need to. Sometimes the CEO has to show up even when the person behind the brand does not feel like it. • Focus on the next small step. You do not need to do everything at once. Decide what showing up can realistically look like today. • Reconnect with why your work matters. Remembering the results and opportunities your business creates can help bring back your spark. Building a personal brand is not always butterflies, rainbows and perfectly polished content. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is show up honestly, take the next step and trust that your spark will come back. Tune in to this episode of Fame-Ready for an honest conversation about navigating a rut, staying visible through challenging seasons and finding your way back to the work that lights you up.

    What Spain Taught Me About Slowing Down

    Welcome to Fame-Ready! This week, Katrina Owens shares the Spain recap she did not expect to give. What was meant to be a dreamy trip through Ibiza, Mallorca and Barcelona became an unexpected lesson in slowing down, releasing expectations and rethinking what it really means to make the most of an experience. After getting sick midway through the trip, Katrina realized she was putting pressure on herself to maximize every moment and capture content simply because she had invested the time, money and energy. Instead, she learned that not everything needs to be productive, shared or turned into content. You’ll learn:• Release the pressure to maximize every moment. An experience does not have to go according to plan to still be valuable.• Not everything needs to become content. Your personal brand can feel personal without sharing every part of your life.• Let unexpected experiences clarify your priorities. Sometimes a change of plans reveals what you value most about your time, relationships and lifestyle. Not every experience needs to be optimized to be worthwhile.

    The Secret Behind Coca-Cola’s Success and What It Can Teach You About Personal Branding

    Welcome to Fame-Ready! This week, Katrina Owens shares the business and branding lessons she took away from an unexpected visit to the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta. As one of the world’s most iconic brands, Coca-Cola offers powerful lessons for entrepreneurs who want to build a personal brand with lasting recognition and impact. From small beginnings to investing boldly and leveraging PR, Katrina explores why building a recognizable brand takes time, belief, and a willingness to treat your ideas like valuable assets. She also challenges entrepreneurs to stop letting small numbers define their potential and start building with big brand energy. You’ll Learn: • Starting small doesn’t mean thinking small. Even iconic global brands like Coca-Cola had a starting line. • Your ideas and intellectual property are valuable business assets. Meaningful business growth often requires investing capital before the outcome feels guaranteed. • PR and partnerships build trust with new audiences. Long before influencer marketing existed, Coca-Cola used celebrity endorsements to create recognition, credibility, and alignment.  Building an iconic brand doesn’t happen overnight. By embracing the starting line, investing in growth, and intentionally getting in front of new audiences, you can build the recognition and authority required to create something much bigger.
