58 minutes

Send me a message, I’d love to hear from you!

Have you ever considered breaking into the world of professional speaking, but weren’t sure if you were qualified or didn’t know where to start? In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I bring Jasmin Haley, a dental hygienist, educator, speaker, and entrepreneur, onto the podcast to share how she transformed her passion for impactful education into a thriving speaking business and how you can do the same!

Jasmin and I dive into common misconceptions around speaking, the practical steps it takes to become a speaker, and the realities of fitting speaking into your life, not the other way around. We touch on everything from negotiating your value, protecting your intellectual property, overcoming stage fright, and handling disruptive audience members like a pro!

If there's one thing we want to stress in this episode, it's that you are not “just a hygienist.” Your individual perspective and experiences are what make you unique! If stepping onto a stage—or hitting “record” on your own platform—has been calling your name, this episode is your encouragement to say yes and get moving.
