How do you stand out in a crowded sea of coaches, consultants, entrepreneurs, and speakers?
What does it take to dig down and find the core of your message?
In this episode, I interview Creative Director Hillary Weiss to help answer those questions and explore what it takes to create your Statement Piece and Power Positioning.
We discuss:
The messy route to finding your distinctive place in the market
Why you must take a stand to create a truly remarkable brand
How to use the Statement Piece Framework to weave more of you into your message, websites, and communication
The secret to creating infinite content for page, screen, and stage
Why it's critical to be radically relevant
How writing helps you find clarity
And when to change your business model

My approach is all about transforming your relationship with your voice, body, and story. It's one thing to write about it - it's another to take a breath and speak the words out loud.
Ready for your close-up?
You don’t need a speaking coach, a formula, or to follow someone else’s steps. You need feedback about how the audience experiences your ideas, your presence, your story, and your speech.
That’s what a keynote director does.
