Confident Speaker: Build Your Public Speaking Confidence and PlatformShow Notes
Feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could talk about in your signature presentation? You're not alone. If you're a multi-passionate entrepreneur juggling coaching, courses, consulting, and maybe even a community or two, narrowing it all down to one talk can feel like trying to pick your favorite child. In this episode, I share how you can clarify your message without sacrificing the breadth of what you offer. Whether you're looking to drive leads, build brand awareness, or position yourself as a thought leader, the key is not to say *everything*—but to say the *right* things in a way that connects and converts. You’ll learn: 1. How to find your big idea — the common thread that ties your offerings together 2. Why focusing on one topic is the best thing you can do for clarity and results 3. How to strategically weave in what else you do without sounding salesy or scattered This is the method we use with our clients to create signature talks that are both authentic and impactful. Because when your message aligns with your mission, your audience *feels* it — and they remember you. Want expert support developing your signature talk?

Speaking inside your company is a powerful proving ground. You’re leading meetings, presenting updates, sharing results, guiding decisions. You’ve built credibility. You’re trusted.
How do you know if your topic is actually relevant right now—or if it’s quietly being dismissed as outdated?
“I need more speaking topics.”
One of the most common questions I hear from aspiring and experienced speakers alike is: “What should I charge for a speaking engagement?”
If your message feels longer than it needs to be—or people look confused when you explain what you do—you’re not alone. I see this all the time with brilliant, accomplished women who create real results for their clients… but struggle to articulate it clearly and concisely.
