What’s the #1 mistake keeping speakers from making money—and are YOU making it?
If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping onto a stage and delivering a talk that not only captivates but also converts—this episode is for you. Because let’s be real… public speaking isn’t just about sharing your message—it’s about getting paid for it.
This week, I’m sitting down with the incredible Jenn Espinosa-Goswami, an experienced speaker and coach who helps entrepreneurs speak with clarity, confidence, and consistency—whether on stage, on camera, or in webinars. If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of free gigs, unsure how to turn speaking into a legitimate revenue stream, Jenn is here to spill the secrets on how to transition from “exposure” to paid opportunities that grow your business.
Here’s what we’re covering in today’s episode:
- How to overcome stage fright and OWN the room (or Zoom!)
- The power of a signature talk—and why having one makes you the speaker event planners WANT
- How to stop taking unpaid gigs and start commanding top-dollar speaking fees
- The truth about TEDx talks—are they worth it for your speaking career?
- How to structure your talk for engagement (aka, keep them hooked from your first sentence to your final call to action)
- The role of AI in speaker success—and how tools like ChatGPT can help you land gigs
- Speaker reels: Do you really need one? And what makes one stand out
Public speaking isn’t just for coaches or consultants—it’s for ANYONE who wants to increase their authority, attract high-ticket clients, and become the go-to expert in their niche.
If you’ve been wondering how to leverage speaking to grow your audience, boost sales, and build brand authority, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways to make it happen.
