    EP 246 - “I’ll wait until I feel confident, then I’ll apply to speak” [Public Speaking Myths Series]

    “I’ll wait until I feel confident… then I’ll apply to speak.” It sounds responsible. It sounds self-aware.And it’s one of the most common public speaking myths out there. In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, we’re unpacking the belief that confidence has to come before action—and how that mindset quietly keeps people stuck on the sidelines. We’ll explore: The myth that says you need to feel confident before applying to speak When it does make sense to take action before you’re ready—and when it doesn’t How to tell the difference between healthy nerves and a nervous system that truly isn’t ready What to do instead when pushing yourself would cause more harm than growth How to actively build confidence before and after doing the big, scary thing If you’ve been waiting for confidence to magically arrive before you raise your hand, this episode offers a more grounded, compassionate approach—one that honors both growth and capacity. 🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to stop waiting for confidence and start building it in a way that feels supportive, intentional, and sustainable.

    EP 245 - “Only famous people get booked for stages” [Public Speaking Myths Series]

    “Only famous people get booked to speak on stages.” It’s one of the most limiting public speaking myths—and one that quietly convinces so many capable speakers that stages are for other people, not them. In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, I’m unpacking where this belief comes from, why it’s misleading, and how it kept me doubting myself—even before my very first in-person speaking gig as someone who was definitely not famous. We’ll cover: The myth that says you need a big name or big following to get booked What my first in-person speaking gig looked like without fame or credentials Why your past experience or speaking fee does not define your worth What would actually happen if event hosts only hired the same five celebrities What organizers are really looking for when they book speakers If you’ve ever told yourself “I’m not known enough yet,” this episode is a reminder that stages don’t belong to celebrities—they belong to people with lived experience, clarity, and something meaningful to share. 🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to stop waiting to be chosen and start trusting that your voice is already enough.

    EP 244 - “I need to have something brand new to say” [Public Speaking Myths Series]

    “I need to have something brand new to say.” It’s one of the most paralyzing public speaking myths—and one that keeps so many smart, experienced people from ever pitching themselves or saying yes to speaking opportunities. In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, we’re dismantling the belief that you need a completely original idea in order to get booked to speak. We’ll talk about: The myth that says your message has to be brand new to be valuable The uncomfortable truth: when you boil it down, most of us are teaching the same core ideas Where the real difference lies—and what actually makes you unique as a speaker Why your lived experience, perspective, and voice matter more than novelty If you’ve been holding yourself back because you think your message isn’t unique enough, this episode is your permission slip to stop overthinking and start showing up. 🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to reclaim your voice and remember: it’s not about saying something no one has ever said—it’s about saying it in a way only you can.

    EP 243 - “Visibility is selfish” [Public Speaking Myths Series]

    It’s one of the most common public speaking myths I hear—especially from values-driven speakers, coaches, and creatives who genuinely care about impact. In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, we’re unpacking the belief that visibility is a selfish act and reframing what it actually means to be seen, heard, and paid for your work. We’ll explore: The public speaking myth that keeps so many people playing small The difference between internal impact (how it benefits you) and external impact (who it serves) How to grow your brand through your values and your mission—not ego or performance Why your values should act as a guiding compass for every speaking and business decision How visibility and sales can be an act of service If you’ve ever felt guilty about promoting yourself, sharing your work, or wanting to be seen—this episode is an invitation to reframe visibility as leadership, responsibility, and care. 🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to stop shrinking your voice and start treating visibility as a way to serve the people who need what you have to offer.

    EP 242 - How I Turn Unpaid Speaking Gigs Into Sales

    Unpaid speaking gigs don’t have to be a hard no—or a fast track to burnout.

    EP 240 - My First Paid Workshop: How I Landed It Before I Felt “Ready”

    Your first paid workshop doesn’t come from feeling “ready.” It comes from learning how to position and trust your experience—even before you see yourself as a speaker.
