In this enlightening episode of Secrets in Medical Device Sales, The Girls of Grit are joined by Betty Rhoades, a professional speaker, career and leadership coach, and organizational consultant. 

Betty shares her journey from being diagnosed with malignant melanoma at age 19 to being a young attorney often finding herself as the only woman in the room and to finally pivoting into her current career, empowering others to find their voice through public speaking.

As a person who loves to talk, Betty naturally found her strength in public speaking and communication and eventually used it as a tool to share that power and space with others. She shares her 'Savvy Speaking System' which focuses on the physical, social, and emotional aspects of public speaking. 

Tune in for valuable insights on leveling up your communication skills and overcoming gender obstacles.
