In this episode, we’re sharing the opening remarks from our recent Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit.

Listen in for not only the content but also the structure of our speeches. What elements do you notice?

Our emcee Amber Hawley kicked off the event and then our lead speaking coach Diane Diaz opened with her speech on how as women we’ve studied our absence and how that has affected our confidence.

I then picked up on this thread and talked about the importance of stories told by women, why as women we silence ourselves, and what we can do to change this.

Our event was inspiring, motivating, and empowering for the hundreds of women who attended.

Here's what attendees said:

"This is by far the best online event I have attended: intimate, engaging and special. The speakers were riveting, their stories compelling. Thank you to all the women who worked so hard to create this day of empathy and strength to make us all stronger. WOW!"

"This is my first summit and so amazing. I feel super motivated and understood."

"I love the diversity of age, background, speaking and life experience."

"Kudos to all of you for putting together this ambitious program, and to your speakers for sharing their vulnerable stories. This is helping me get real with myself in new ways."

A huge and heartfelt thank you to our team, speakers, panelists, summit speaking coaches, and volunteers who made this event happen!

Episode 175: The Work of Anti-Racism as White Women with Carol Cox and Diane Diaz

What steps can you take to start building your thought leadership platform?

What are strategies you can use to build an audience and grow your business, speaking, and visibility?

This episode is a panel discussion from our Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit that we held last October 2020.

(Our next event is coming up very soon on April 1, 2021! Register for free at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/summit.) 

Our panelists (LuAnn Nigara, Tammy Lally, and Dr. Karen Wilson) are all accomplished speakers, from having a podcast with over 3 million downloads to having a TEDx talk go viral with over 2 million views to being a sought-after presenter at top industry conferences.

You’ll hear us talk about:

• What does being a thought leader mean to you?
• If you had to pick one thing that was key to getting you from where you were 4 or 5 years ago to where you are today (in terms of your platform/success), what would it be?
• What’s something you wished you had done early on when building your thought leadership platform?
• What role has speaking played in developing your platform?
• Do you ever get vulnerability hangovers? If so, what strategies do you use to work through them?

Last March 2020, as part of Women’s History Month, I released this episode and our challenge called #ChoosingWomensVoices.

This content and challenge is just as relevant today, so this is an excellent opportunity to listen again or to listen for the first time.

I’m taking this opportunity myself to audit the podcasts I listen to, the books I read, and the people I follow to make sure there are a preponderance of women’s voices and of diverse women’s voices.

This all started towards the end of 2019 when I was listening to a well-known, very popular male podcaster and he put me over the edge when he said something like this (I'm paraphrasing):

"Some people tell me I should have more diverse guests - women and people of color - but I don't think that should be a criteria for who I invite. I want the best person on a given topic no matter their gender or race."

And at that moment, I hit stop, unsubscribed, and deleted his show from my podcast app.🤯​ 

(You'll hear who it was and more in this episode.)

I do have to thank him for partly inspiring the #ChoosingWomensVoices challenge we're running this month to raise our awareness of the voices we listen to (and read), from podcasts and books to movies, tv, and news to our specific industry.

How many are women? Is there diversity within those women's voices? Are there women podcasters/authors/experts you can find to augment (or replace) the male voices?

You may be wondering: why does it matter if the content I listen to or read is from a woman or a man?

That’s what we’re talking about on the podcast as well as during the challenge.

In this episode, Diane Diaz and I talk about:

• What’s just as important as visibility is our actual voices as women and what we’re saying: “If you can see it *and* hear it, you can be it.”
• Although there are more women in higher-profile positions than ever, we're still hitting that glass ceiling. Why is that? There are many factors, but one is literally the voices we hear.
• The history of women being shamed, ridiculed, threatened, even harmed and killed for speaking up.
• This continues even today: GamerGate, harassment on social media, women in politics.
• Women’s actual voices are criticized as being shrill, nagging, whining, too angry, too emotional or not emotional enough.
• The positive impact that collective women’s voices can have, as we've seen in movements like Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, and #TimesUp. 
• What we can do about it by being more intentional with the voices we choose.
• Unsilencing ourselves and developing the confidence to do so.

Join the Challenge!

To sign up for our free #ChoosingWomensVoices challenge, go to https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/challenge.

During the challenge, you'll receive an email prompt each day for 5 days with a short activity, along with recommendations. (You can start the challenge any time.)

Have you ever felt like you have a deeper story and message to share with your audience?

Perhaps you’re uncertain what it is because it’s hidden under surface content.

Or perhaps you know what the deeper story is but you have some fears and doubts about being vulnerable and sharing it.

We all have a deeper story and message - and our audiences can benefit when we’re willing to open up.

This is exactly what we’ve seen Zaribel Clay do in our Thought Leader Academy during the past few months.

Zaribel has been working closely with our lead speaking coach Diane Diaz on her thought leadership message and her signature talk, so I asked Diane to interview Zaribel to talk about the journey Zaribel has been on.

Zaribel is also one of our speakers for our Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit that takes place on April 1st. It’s free to attend, so register today: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/summit/.

How can you start developing your thought leadership message?

In this episode, I walk you through:

• my V.O.I.C.E. model for thought leadership
• common fears that keep us as women from speaking up
• the rewards you get from speaking up
• 6 steps to position yourself as a thought leader

Download our free Thought Leadership workbook that has the V.O.I.C.E. framework, question prompts, and more: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/guide/. 

I define a thought leader as someone who has an interesting idea, especially one that hasn’t been talked about a lot in their circle of influence, that challenges the status quo and challenges our assumptions; who communicates it with conviction and boldness; who inspires people to take action; AND who causes people to be self-reflective, to learn more about themselves and how they relate to the world.

Thought leaders who gain momentum also have what I call a container or project for their thought leadership message, which you’ll hear more about in this episode.

One of my thought leadership containers is this podcast; the other is the Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit we did last year and that we’re doing again on April 1st. Register for free at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/summit/. 

This week is also the 4-year anniversary of this podcast!

Podcasting each week has been the most important factor in the growth of Speaking Your Brand as a company and in helping me refine my voice.

THANK YOU for being a listener, whether you've recently found the podcast or have been listening for a while.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU if you’ve been a listener since year 1! You helped me continue to hit publish every Tuesday.

Have you been asked to be an emcee for an event or thought about being one?

An emcee (or MC, Master of Ceremonies) is the person who is the bridge and what I call the cohesive glue of the event.

Being an emcee is harder than it looks!

You’re a host, an entertainer, and a representative of the event’s brand.

As the emcee, your goal is to make the participants, the event organizer, their brand, and their business look good.

I recently was the emcee for a virtual event and wanted to share my experiences and lessons with you. 

I’m joined in this episode by Amber Hawley, who is the emcee for our Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit coming up on April 1st and was the emcee for the event we did last year.

Amber and I talk about 5 rules we came up with for being an excellent, effective, and engaging emcee. 

These rules apply whether you’re doing virtual or in-person events.

And these rules are helpful for you as a speaker!

Be sure to register for our next Brave. Bold. Beyond. LIVE virtual summit to see Amber in action! https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/summit/

• Episode 153: Threading a Story Throughout Your Signature Talk with Amber Hawley

We all love TED talks, right?

The best ones tell us something we haven’t thought of before and inspire us to take action.

TED talks became so popular because they showcased Big Ideas that oftentimes came from or were influenced by the speaker’s own personal story or experience (plus they’re under 20 minutes!).

In this episode, I’m joined by Tanya Golash-Boza, who recently delivered her TEDx talk called “How to Kill a Neighborhood and Make a Profit” about how disinvestment in Black communities during the 20th century has led to gentrification in the 21st. 

Tanya is currently in our Thought Leader Academy and worked with us to create her TEDx talk.

As a professor of sociology at the University of California, Merced, and founder of the Racism, Capitalism, and the Law Lab, Tanya knows a lot about her topic (she’s writing an entire book on it!): years, statistics, and the specifics of policies like redlining and racial restrictive covenants that led to segregated neighborhoods.

Her challenge was to take an academic topic for a niche audience and turn it into a powerful TEDx talk for a general audience - and she did!

In this episode, Tanya and I talk about:

• Narrowing down her content and finding the throughline for her talk
• Integrating her personal story and experiences growing up in D.C.
• How she iterated her scripts and added more storytelling with help from one of our speaking coaches Joy Spencer
• Getting feedback from various people in different disciplines
• How she memorized her script and prepared for the filming
• What she’s doing next: taking her TEDx talk and expanding it into a signature talk and keynote, using our framework
• What has been the most beneficial aspects of being in our Thought Leader Academy

This episode is the second in our Big Ideas series.

About My Guest: Tanya Golash-Boza is a scholar who focuses on gaining a deep understanding of systems of oppression and exploitation. As a writer, speaker, and teacher, she tells stories of people and of systems to help colleagues, students, readers, and listeners understand how racism and capitalism structure our lives and what we need to do to change this country and the world.
