“The more you speak, the more you understand yourself and your audience.”

I love this quote from my guest Dr. Zoe Shaw.

Zoe is a psychotherapist, coach, podcaster, and speaker, whom I have known for the past few years as I’ve seen her speaking career grow.

You’ll get a lot out of our conversation! 

 

Zoe and I talk about:

• How her speaking career got started
• How she got her first paid speaking engagement
• How speaking led to Zoe getting her first book contract
• Why Zoe has decided to re-brand her podcast and narrow her focus and audience to be more specific around faith and feminism
• How her hot seat in our mastermind has helped her to walk into her re-brand with confidence
• Setting speaking fees and deciding how many free speaking engagements to do each year
