Your Message Could Change Everything.
Let's get it on the TEDx stage where it belongs.
Holy $hit, you're sitting on GOLD.
You're the expert everyone comes to. The one who sees solutions nobody else can. You geek out on your work — whether you're leading in corporate, running your own firm, or doing both. You have insights that could genuinely change how your industry operates.
And the world needs to hear it at scale.
Here's what I know: You have ALL the stories. Decades of expertise. Impossible wins. Crisis moments that shaped how you think. You know your stuff inside and out. You've been asked to keynote (or you know you should be on those stages).
What you're missing? The architecture to bring it all together.
You can talk about your work for hours. But turning that into a 30-60 minute keynote that actually moves people? That honors your depth without losing your audience? That weaves in your expertise AND your offers without sounding salesy?
OMG, I so get it. You have all the pieces — you just need help seeing how they fit.

Here's What's Actually Happening
You know you're ready for TEDx. You feel called to it. But when you sit down to write or apply:
You freeze. Which story? Which angle? How do you honor the depth of your work in 12 minutes without oversimplifying?
You second-guess yourself. Is this story good enough? Is my idea TEDx-worthy? Will the committee even get what I'm trying to say?
You overthink the application. You know your message matters, but you don't know how to position it in a way that makes the committee say "YES, this is the one."
Here's the truth: Your message is already powerful enough. Your expertise is already there. You just need someone who can help you see the gold you're too close to recognize — and turn it into a TEDx talk that transforms lives.
What You Actually Get (The Complete TEDx Strategy)
This is me — a Messaging Architect with a Master's in Psychology — partnering with you to land, write, and deliver the TEDx talk your message deserves.
-
Personal Brand & Story Alignment — 2-hour story mining session where we pull out the stories you've been carrying that need to be shared. I help you see which moments matter most and how they connect to your Big Idea.
Authority Building Strategy — We strengthen your online presence (bio, socials, speaker page) so when the TEDx committee Googles you, they see exactly why you're the right person for their stage.
-
Event Research & Targeting — I research TEDx events that align with your mission and message so you're not wasting time applying to the wrong stages.
Custom Application Development — I help you craft an application that shows the committee why your idea is exactly what their audience needs to hear. This isn't fill-in-the-blank — it's strategic positioning.
Speaker Reel Strategy & Direction — I give you the roadmap for creating a speaker reel that makes you look confident, authentic, and ready. Plus coaching so you show up magnetic on camera.
-
Talk Architecture & Full Writing — Using psychology-driven storytelling frameworks, I write (or co-write) your entire TEDx talk. We honor the depth of your expertise while making it emotionally resonant, clear, and TEDx-ready.
Story Structure & Polishing — Multiple rounds of edits so your talk has the perfect arc, hits the right emotional beats, and transforms how people think — not just what they know.
-
Stage Confidence Coaching — Body language, pacing, presence — we work on it all so you command that red dot with authenticity.
Memorization & Flow Techniques — Methods to internalize your talk so it feels natural, not robotic. You'll own every word.
Guided Rehearsals & Performance Prep — We simulate the TEDx experience with real-time feedback on timing, transitions, and emotional delivery.
Final Polish — We don't stop until you're stage-ready and your message lands exactly how it should.
Why This Works (And Why We're Perfect Together)
I geek out on this stuff just like you geek out on your work. I love taking someone's scattered stories and expertise and helping them see how it all connects.
TEDx Speaker Coach for The North Carolina Sugar Creek Women stage.
Master's in Psychology of Applied Behavioral Analysis — I understand how people process stories, remember insights, and take action. Your talk is built on science AND heart.
I protect your message — I won't let you water down your depth or lose what makes your work matter. We honor your expertise while making it accessible.
Deep-dive research — I study your field, your voice, your mission. You won't sound like "a speaker" — you'll sound like YOU, just sharper.
Track record of TEDx success — My clients land stages and deliver talks that become career-making assets and create real ripple effects.
I don't stop until your message shines as bright as you know it should.
ARE YOU READY TO GET STARTED?
What You Walk Away With
A TEDx acceptance — because your application showed them exactly why your idea matters
A talk that honors your expertise — deep, meaningful, structured to transform thinking
Stage-ready confidence — you'll own that stage and deliver with presence
A legacy piece — this talk becomes your platform for impact, credibility, and opportunities
Scalable influence — your message reaches thousands (maybe millions) instead of staying small
This Is For You If:
✅ You're the change-maker in your field — the one who sees what's possible and feels called to make it happen
✅ You geek out on your work and know your insights could genuinely help people
✅ You feel responsible for sharing what you know at scale — this is about mission, not ego
✅ You know TEDx is where you're meant to be, even if it's your first big stage
✅ You have deep expertise but don't know how to distill it into 12 minutes without losing what matters
✅ You want a strategic partner who gets your message and helps you architect it for impact
This Is NOT For You If:
❌ You're chasing a stage for status, not impact
❌ You want a cheap/DIY solution
❌ You're not willing to go deep in your story and mission
❌ You want "good enough" instead of excellence
❌ You're looking for someone to just write words without understanding your work
The Investment: $5,500
This is everything. From landing the stage to owning it.

FAQs
-
Even better. We’ll refine your message, frame it for maximum impact, and position it in a way that makes TEDx organizers need to book you. You don’t need a perfect idea—you need a strategic one. That’s what we create together.
-
Because it’s not about “trying harder” or sending more applications—it’s about positioning. Most people get rejected because they don’t understand what TEDx organizers look for. We do. We craft your pitch, refine your approach, and ensure your application stands out in a sea of generic submissions.
-
Yes. If you’ve been rejected, it’s because something was off—your positioning, your application, or your messaging. We diagnose exactly where it went wrong, fix it, and reposition you so your next application is a yes.
-
Then this program is even more important for you. TEDx isn’t just about words—it’s about delivery. We refine your presence, command, and confidence so that when you step onto that stage, you don’t just “get through” your talk—you own it.
-
Most TEDx speakers finish their talk and have no idea what to do next. Not you. We set you up with a TEDx-to-business roadmap, speaker branding, and outreach strategies to turn your TEDx talk into high-ticket speaking gigs, media features, and client attraction.
