In this energising episode of the GOAL MARSTAry® series, we sit down with powerhouse MC and keynote speaker mentor Lovelda Vincenzi, who helps women confidently build profitable speaking businesses without spammy cold outreach.

Lovelda shares her personal journey from accidental host to international speaker, and the pivotal mindset shift that transformed her speaking from a hobby into a thriving business. She breaks down what event organisers are really looking for, how to position yourself for high-fee gigs, and why your network—not your cold pitch—is your most powerful sales tool.

We also dive into:

• The difference between speaking as a business vs speaking for your business
• What organisers want (and what they avoid) when choosing speakers
• How to use video, testimonials, and strategic outreach to stand out
• Pricing strategies that grow with your confidence and experience
• How to rehearse like a pro (even if you're talking to trees!)

Whether you're an entrepreneur wanting to leverage speaking to grow your brand or an emerging speaker ready to get paid what you're worth, this conversation is packed with practical insights and inspiration.

💬 “When you treat speaking like a business, the world treats you like a speaker.” – Lovelda Vincenzi
