Let's say you're a wellness coach… so you talk about wellness. Right?

Well, not exactly.

Finding your talk topic is one of those things that SOUNDS easy, but if you don't have it clear enough in your head BEFORE you start writing - you can spend days - weeks - even MONTHS wandering around in the land of ... 'what am I even doing?!"…

When you know you want to create a signature talk -

The next step is knowing your talk topic.

Which is not as easy as it sounds.

So - on the show today I'm sharing with you three things that are getting in the way of you getting clear on your talk topic! - and what might help - including joining my 5-Day Jump-Start Your Talk Challenge over in the Move Your Audience Facebook Group! You can sign up at bemoved.com/challenge - and by the end of Friday, you'll be able to clearly state your talk topic!

Today on the show we're talking with three of my students from the Signature Talk Studio… asking them the very important question… what does it take to create a signature talk?… and - as you'll hear - it's life-changing, empowering - and catalytic. In other words - challenging - but worth it. Listen in to hear about their powerful AHA's, the ways in which they're using their signature talks, and the pivotal moments in the journey.

People buy from people. And your voice is the key to that success… In other words, as speakers, we need to develop our personal brand. So let's talk to the personal branding expert who has helped the likes of Jon Acuff, Tony Robbins and OPRAH WINFREY! And Kevin Jennings - my guest today - is that personal branding expert.

Kevin reached out to me a few years ago about working together to help HIM develop his speaking…he said to me - I always help others do their thing, and now I'm ready to work on my own personal branding - using speaking! And so Kevin and I just got done working together in my Signature Talk Studio- that opens again in just a few weeks! Through the STS program it became really clear not only that A) Kevin's a fantastic speaker and drops wisdom bombs ALL THE TIME, but also that B) we as speakers need that wisdom.

So - I'm truly thrilled to have Kevin as a part of my community, to coach him as he continues to share his voice with the world.. but also to share him with you.

Ennea-What?! If you're not familiar with the Enneagram, I'm about to really blow your mind because the Ennegram is one of those 'now that you know' AHA frameworks that can be life-changing. Plus, it's a super hot topic right now!

My Ennegram expert is the delightful Jenn Whitmer, one of my speakers and a pure joy to be around! Jenn is an Enneagram coach and she is going to help us discover our Ennegram number - and how that shows up for us when we speak.

The Ennegram is full of AHA's and insights - and this is so important because knowing ourselves is the #1 most important thing we need to do as speakers and leaders.

Are you ready?! Let's discover your Enneagram Speaking Style!

Sitting in Jason Jaggard's audience or workshops are consistently mind-blowing experiences. I've watched Jason live out what he pushes us all to do: to become and do more than we think we can. To live a bigger dream, and to not settle for the easy or mundane… And this creative leadership is so essential for us. To get beyond our own perceived limits and do something that matters. Embracing our own potential as creative leaders is all a part of the journey to become a better speaker.

I've admired Brad for years! In his work as the creator of Kid President (yes, THAT kid President!) - he has been a source of joy, inspiration and radical kindness for MILLIONS. When I got to meet Brad in person a few years back, he was as delightful as ever. Like - the most humble, gracious, hilarious and earnest person I've ever met. And then he got on stage: he broke all the rules that didn't work for him, and just so joyfully shared out of love. And that JOY is what I wanted to talk about on the show. In this conversation, Brad shares something that I still aim for each and every day: Instead of saying "I made this, love me" - we create and say, "I made this out of love, for you." That difference comes from pure JOY for your work, your purpose, and those you get to serve. Enjoy.
