On today's episode I'm in conversation with Hilary Salzman, a business storytelling consultant, keynote speaker and author specialising in helping female founders and leaders find and use their real story. Hilary talks about the importance of uncovering and vocalising women's stories, the reoccurring themes and underlying issues that women face including inequality & sexual assault, and her encounters with internet trolls and mansplaining. Hilary also shares how her career started, the challenges and triumphs she has encountered within her personal life, and the words that continually inspire her.
Hilary Salzman is a business storytelling consultant, closing the gap between women’s truth and what they say without cost.
She's the author of 'The Roar of Her Story' (shortlisted for Business Book Awards 2025) and founder of She Roars Club, an accountability community for women founders. She spent 20 years in corporate marketing at major tech brands before launching her storytelling consultancy.
Hilary doesn't teach women to be louder or more polished. She shows them how to use their real experiences, even the messy bits, to build genuine connections, build a successful business and take up the space they truly deserve.
You can find out more about Hilary via her website, Instagram and Substack.
