🔑The biggest mistakes people make when applying for TEDx
🔑What TEDx curators really want in a speaker🔑How to be funny even if you don’t think you are (hint: it’s structure, not luck)
🔑Why shorter talks are way harder than long ones
🔑Christine’s hilarious and heartfelt behind-the-scenes TEDx story (yes, there was a blackout…and Botox)✅ THREE ACTION ITEMS FOR LISTENERS:✔Find Your Problem – Before writing your talk, identify a clear, universal problem that your audience can relate to. TED isn’t about your story—it’s about the transformation you can offer others.
✔Test Your Delivery Voice – Record yourself telling a favorite story to a friend. That natural tone? That’s your ideal voice. Now make sure your talk sounds like that.
✔Don’t Wait for Perfect – Apply anyway. Keep submitting your idea. Don’t overthink the venue. Christine did her TEDx in a one-stoplight town museum—and it was perfect.Connect with Cesar:📍Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mrcesarcervantes/📍Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrcesarcervantes/
