You deserve to be on stages of all shapes and sizes this year. And the only way that we're going to shake up this world for good is if we get your stories out there!
Speaking coach Heather Sager is behind the mic today to break down the wild world of public speaking and how to craft your signature talk.
Whether you’re pitching your nonprofit, leading a meeting, or commanding a stage, Heather shares how a simple mindset shift from fear to service can transform your confidence AND your effectiveness as a speaker.
You’ll also learn her 5 part framework for structuring a compelling talk, the power of a "sticky message" that makes your speech unforgettable, and how to master the art of making an ask that inspires action.
Plus, we get into how to perfect your pitch for speaking opportunities (and this can be for anything - virtual summits, lunch and learns, or even a podcast!) and the most common mistakes people make.
