Do you have your eyes on one of the courses inside The Radiant Leader School… 👀

… but we’ve never worked together, so you’re wondering what it’s like to learn from me?

Here are some words from clients to help you trust me:

🗣️ “I knew Michelle would deliver on her promise that we would have a talk, and I wanted that. But I didn't expect to feel so confident standing in front of women delivering that talk.”
~ Denise Lampron, Founder of The Art of Mindful Aging

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

🗣️ “I started working with Michelle because I was struggling with confidence in my thought leadership. I found myself going in circles around my core message and how I help others. Michelle is magical in her ability to listen and then encapsulate my ramblings in meaningful ways. She's helped me find clarity and confidence in my messaging and deliver even more impact as both a coach and speaker.”
~ Elena Sonnino, Speaker, Author, Coach

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

🗣️ “Michelle is one of the best coaches I’ve ever worked with in any field. You’re going to get unbelievable expertise, somebody who is incredibly thoughtful and smart, and is going to care deeply about teaching you how to be a great speaker.”
~ Melanie Vetter, Founder, Wellfleet Circle

In the presentation skills training I facilitate, I’m often asked the question: What do I do if my content is just boring?

The truth is, your content can’t be boring or no one will pay attention – it’s just the facts.

The good news is – there is no inherently boring content! There is only content that hasn’t been crafted in a way that engages that particular audience.

This applies to presentations as well as emails, conversations with clients, business partners and your kids or parents as well.

I created this episode to help you take any content and make it way more interesting.

Specifically, you’ll learn:

👉 The first and most important thing you must do to craft content that will engage any audience (it’s magical, really)

👉 What working in the insurance industry taught me about creating engaging content

👉 Why stories are important, no matter what your topic – and how to choose ones that work

👉 How to approach your content with the right intention so the audience or person walks away with their needs met

👉 Ways to narrow and focus your content to meet the needs of the audience or the person you are speaking with

I hope this episode helps you brighten up and focus your content in a way that lights up your audience, whether that’s one person or a whole auditorium full of people.

🎙️ In the second episode of this two-part series, we cover tips on how to find the RIGHT kind of TEDx event for your goals.

I also share essential differences between a TEDx talk and a keynote speech or other kinds of presentation. From how to craft a compelling Big Idea to specific guidance on brainstorming, this episode will be an excellent companion as you craft your TED talk – as well as help you get on the ✨TED or TEDx stage.✨

Building on last week’s episode dedicated to helping you set yourself and your application up for a more likely Hell Yes, this second episode rounds out the TEDx preparation.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

👉🏻 The best way to find TEDx events that are still happening live, especially after the pandemic

👉🏻 What to look for in a TEDx event to make sure you have a video you are excited to share everywhere

👉🏻 Why every TEDx event is NOT created equal and how to match the opportunity with your personal goals for speaking

👉🏻 An excellent starting formula for crafting your Big Idea – even as it will likely evolve as you go through the prep process

👉🏻 How to reveal and choose the best content for your TEDx application and, eventually, talk content

👉🏻 What I mean by the Magic Mix of Content and why it’s so important as you craft your TED talk

Listen to this episode along with part 1 and be completely prepared from searching for your event all the way through crafting your TEDx talk once you get your Hell Yes! 🎙️

There are many awesome ways to share your ideas on stage. That said, there is something special about speaking on a TED or TEDx stage – especially for people who are on a mission to change the world with their message.

It makes sense. TED events tend to offer beautiful stage experience and production, and it’s pretty cool to be a part of an event with strong ethical guidelines that is designed to ignite ideas and engagement with the audience.

The mystery comes in when aspiring speakers try to figure out how to get on a TEDx stage. It feels daunting and it’s hard to know where to start.

I love sharing what I’ve learned working with many TEDx speakers to help remove the barriers to you getting on a TEDx stage if that’s your dream.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

👉How you can start setting yourself up now to get onto a TEDx stage, even if you aren’t quite ready yet
👉The importance of your own goals for speaking on a TEDx stage as you decide how to approach your application
👉What it means to create an “Idea worth Spreading” – and how it often differs from an idea for a keynote
👉Specific qualifications that TEDx curation teams are looking for in TEDx speakers
👉Some of the red flags TEDx event organizers are watching for – they might surprise you!
👉Why you don’t have to be an amazing speaker to get a TEDx talk opportunity
👉The importance of applying to more than one event
👉Why being qualified isn’t a guarantee you’ll be invited to speak

Here’s the thing: you are meant for a TED talk, if you feel called to do one. Whether you are ready right now or you want to use this episode to continue to establish your credibility, you can absolutely find an event that will fit your goals and big idea.

I hope this episode is helpful for you on the path!

What if… ❄️

I’ve been thinking about the “magic of the season”... how there are delightfully colorful lights adorning many houses, tree-lined downtown streets are lit up in white, holiday songs are jingling through speakers in stores… we’ve made this social agreement that the month of December many of us rally to create this collective magical experience…

What if we saw - like really know within us - that the magic isn’t in the “season”? It’s not in the lights, the gatherings, the jingling music… but instead, it’s within us all the time.

What if just turning toward the sparkling magic within you, me, each other is all it takes to experience the most delightful magic, anytime?

I’m excited about this thought! ✨❤️

P.S. I hope I didn’t shock you with the close up of me in my curlers 😊I found them last week, after trying every other kind of hair tool I could think of: small crimper, beach wave crimper, flat iron, ¾” curling, 1” curling iron, 1 ½ inch curling iron. The curlers won for effectiveness and joy! (I’m just showing you the before pic, because it’s the most fun one.)

🎙️New podcast all about having a Hell Yes business with the brilliant Jessica Miller Coaching

Struggling in business and wondering what to do to solve business problems is normal, but the information about how to get back on track with your business plan and success is so confusing.

Unfortunately, there is so little about this in the marketing and business planning literature and education.
Instead, we’re told to hunker down, work harder, hustle more - sometimes without any regard at all for how connected and energetic we feel about the work we are doing.

Which is why I am so thrilled to introduce you to the amazing Jessica Miller on this week’s Speak Up. Show Up Podcast!

Jessica helps ambitious entrepreneurs streamline and grow their businesses by creating Hell Yes! offers that sell themselves. After working with dozens of business owners she has seen that the difference between struggling and thriving is having a Hell Yes Offer at the center of the business.

Your business success and enjoyment is dependent on your Hell Yes energy. It’s essential.

What if… ❄️

I love visioning this time of year. Do you?

I love how, when I give my heart, Spirit and brain some spacious time to conspire, they come up with these visuals, sensations and ideas that sometimes (often?) defy logic.

✨✨Maybe this year I’ll start a non-profit, write a book, spend more time on my corporate client growth AND offer an even more *stunning* one-on-one package for my clients!

Also, I’m going to spend more time lounging around with Jim and going on adventures with my daughters, since they are in their last few years at home possibly.✨✨

Inside the quiet spaciousness of dreaming, this all makes so much sense. Beautiful, exciting, let’s DO THIS kind of sense.

Then, I come back to “reality” (what is that anyway?) and remember all of the expert advice I’ve been given (paid for, usually) to FOCUS ON ONE THING and be more strategic.

I can feel the deflation all over again…

But here’s the thing… What if your dreams, desires, visioning and inner guidance is telling you something that no one else could possibly understand? What if that beautiful abundance of joyful ideas is exactly where you are supposed to focus your time and energy? (Hey, that’s just one thing! Not that it matters…)

Because here’s what I know for sure: YOU - your heart, Spirit and brain, conspiring - are the wisest, most brilliant guide for your path forward.
Whether it turns out the way we imagined or not actually doesn't really matter. That you live into your beautiful life and expression IS what matters.
