If your marketing feels like it's working harder… but not necessarily working better, you're not imagining it.In this episode, I'm joined by our lead speaking coach, Diane Diaz, for part one of a two-part series all about why your signature talk isn't just “nice to have” - it's actually the foundation of an effective marketing strategy.We're seeing it everywhere: more content, more noise, more competition for attention. And yet, many women entrepreneurs and professionals are still treating their talks as an afterthought — something they dust off when a speaking opportunity pops up.That's a missed opportunity. Your signature talk is your marketing.In our conversation, Diane and I break down why public speaking accelerates the know-like-trust factor faster than almost any other marketing channel — and how a well-designed signature talk can do the heavy lifting for you.We talk about:Why speaking creates deeper trust than social media posts, emails, or even podcasts aloneHow a single lead-generation talk brought in multiple new clients the same day — without being salesyThe difference between passive marketing (scrolling, consuming) and active engagement (participating, resonating, deciding)Why audiences are more likely to trust you when they see other people responding to your message (hello, mirror neurons)What a signature talk really is (hint: it's not just one rigid presentation you give foreverAs you listen, I want you to start thinking about:What problem do you really solve for your clients?What does your audience think is holding them back — and what do you see that they don't yet?Where might you be sharing information… when what your audience needs is leadership, perspective, and clarity?If that feels fuzzy (and for most people, it does), you're not doing it wrong. This is exactly why an outside perspective — and a proven framework — makes such a difference.In the next episode, we're diving into how to design and deliver presentations that actually convert — without awkward pitches or forced CTAs.If you've ever thought, “I'm speaking, but it's not leading to clients,” part two is for you.And if you're ready to build a signature talk that becomes the backbone of your marketing, visibility, and thought leadership, you can learn more about working with us inside the Thought Leader Academy, through a VIP Day, or at one of our in-person Orlando speaking workshops.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/456/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Attend our 1-day Speaking Accelerator Workshop in Orlando: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/orlando/ Connect on LinkedIn:Carol Cox = https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxDiane Diaz = https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianediaz/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 453: Why Your Best Talk is the One You Give Again (and Again)Episode 396: Creating a Signature Talk that Attracts Paid Speaking Opportunities

If life has been lifing hard lately and you're wondering, "How am I supposed to keep showing up in my business like this?"…this episode is going to blow your mind in the most practical way. Today I'm joined by Jordan Gill, creator of Systems Saved Me, longtime VIP Day queen, and the systems brain you wish you had on retainer. We talk about how she turned a 3-hour daily school commute into a content machine that produces up to 80 pieces of content a day, without her sitting at a laptop, and without sounding like an AI robot. This conversation is part systems masterclass, part permission slip to build a life-first business and let automation and collaborations do the heavy lifting. In this episode, we dive into: How Jordan accidentally discovered she's a "systems person" and went from content strategist for a big-name online brand to founder of Systems Saved Me. Her exact "car-to-content" workflow: How she uses a 45-minute school run to answer 10 interview-style questions Why each question becomes 8 pieces of content across platforms The tools she uses (Cleft, Telegram, Zapier, Airtable, ChatGPT, Metricool) to automate everything behind the scenes. Using AI without losing your voice: how Jordan uses AI to organize, structure, and repurpose her actual words, not replace them. The number one system she recommends for non-systems people who feel overwhelmed (spoiler: it's your scheduler, not a 47-step backend build). Collaboration as a growth strategy – how Jordan approaches collabs so they feel like real relationships, not awkward "networking." Why some of her best clients come from collaborations and how she thinks about long-game reciprocity (not tit-for-tat). The "unusual" ways she runs her business: Why she's never required collaborators or speakers to promote her events Why she has always paid her speakers and how that aligns with her values Her philosophy on creating share-worthy offers that people can't help talking about Connect with Jordan →Get Her Carpool Content System Here: https://systemssavedme.spiffy.co/a/Y7zFnxeG7n/5720 →Connect with Jordan on Instagram: @systemssavedme Connect with Meg →Snag your seat in the Edge Led Launch System Workshop: https://meganyelaney.com/black-friday-workshop-opt-in This workshop will show you how to choose the right topics, craft edge-led messaging, and structure launches that convert even when your Instagram reach is trash. →Come say hi on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meganyelaney
This season has shown me something most people don't talk about out loud: your relationships will either accelerate your vision… or quietly slow it down.As we get to the end of the year, people start reflecting on gratitude, lessons, and the people in their life — and that reflection hits differently when you realize some relationships no longer feel aligned. Maybe you feel drained after certain conversations. Maybe the friendships that used to fit… don't. Maybe your circle feels smaller but sharper.You're not imagining it.You're not being dramatic.You're growing.And not everyone is meant to come with you into your next season.In today's episode, I'm sharing the truth about shifting friendships, evolving standards, and the emotional cost of outgrowing people you once loved deeply. I'll walk you through how I curate my circle, how I protect my energy, and how I decide who gets access to me — not based on history, but based on alignment.If you've been feeling disconnected, drained, or misunderstood this year… this episode will give you clarity, permission, and a framework for choosing relationships that match who you're becoming — not who you used to be. Things I cover in this Episode:The moment you realize you've outgrown old friendshipsWhy growth can feel lonely (and why it's not actually loneliness — it's expansion)How to protect your energy without guiltThe Access Buckets Framework I teach my kidsInner Circle vs. Growth Circle vs. Clients vs. DrainersHow to filter relationships using expanders vs. diminishersWhy boundaries aren't rejection — they're alignmentHow to elevate your rooms and stop staying where you're the strongest oneWhat happens when your bandwidth shrinks and your standards riseA step-by-step “Play Bigger Relationship Audit” to realign your circle for 2026If this episode resonates with you — if it gives you clarity, permission, or a deep exhale — share it with a friend, tag me on Instagram @itsraquelq, or send me a message inside my VIP text community at textraquel.com.And if you're ready to grow with me in 2026 — through coaching, events, or a VIP Day in Scottsdale — send me a DM.

What up, Beasts. Welcome back to the show! In this episode, I talk with Jen Yundt Coles, a functional medicine health coach and SIBO specialist, about the deep connection between gut health, stress, and the high-achieving woman's drive to do it all. Jen shared how her own experiences, from running herself into burnout to surviving multiple life-altering wake-up calls, taught her that slowing down isn't failure, it's medicine. We explored why so many women sacrifice their own needs in the name of productivity, how unprocessed emotions and perfectionism can literally live in the gut, and what happens when you finally stop outsourcing your intuition and start listening to your body. This conversation is both raw and empowering, reminding us that healing isn't about hustling harder, it's about coming home to yourself.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: Jen Yundt Coles is a leading expert in gut-brain-performance and functional health strategy- best known for her premium programs helping high-performing women break free from the leadership drain of chronic gut dysfunction, including SIBO. As The SIBO Coach, Jen works with clients and practitioners worldwide, bringing a bold, system-level approach to gut-brain resilience, nervous system regulation, and sustainable performance. Her work is grounded in both clinical expertise and personal experience- helping women reclaim clarity, drive, and vitality when conventional approaches have failed.Music by Prymary: Sean Entrikin (my hot husband) on guitar, Chris Quirarte on drums, Smiley Sean on keyboards, Rob Young on bass, and Jaxon Duane on vocals.Connect with JenWebsite: www.thesibocoach.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.sibo.coachLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenyundtcoles-thesibocoach/Free SIBO Resources: https://thesibocoach.com/resourcesSchedule a VIP Day: https://thesibocoach.com/sibo-vip-dayWhere else can you find me?Linktree: https://linktr.ee/beautifulbeastwithinstudiosWhat if health wasn't about rules or restriction?

Have you ever wondered what people are really paying for when they work with you? In this week's episode of Female emPOWERED, host Christa Gurka shares insights sparked by a recent VIP Day in Atlanta with Ashley Brock and a powerful group of women entrepreneurs — plus a timely reminder from Denise Duffield-Thomas's Chill & Prosper podcast.This episode dives deep into the real value behind your services, the transformative power of investing in mentorship, and how giving yourself space to think (not just do) can completely change the trajectory of your business.Whether you're a Pilates studio owner, yoga instructor, or private-pay PT, you'll walk away with practical clarity about:Why your clients pay for energy, clarity, and transformation — not just time or tactics.The unseen ROI of investing in mentorship, masterminds, and VIP experiences.How to design a business that actually supports your life — not the other way around.Why the next level of your success starts with simply stepping into the right room.Key Takeaways
Not every season of business needs a coach—and some “must-hire” advice is straight-up nonsense. In this fiery, funny, double-blunt chat, Leonie and Tam unpack when coaching is actually worth it, the red flags to avoid, and smarter (often cheaper) alternatives that get real results—especially for neurodivergent, values-driven women running online businesses.Who it's for: Online business women who want strategic growth without guru-worship, bro marketing, or 70-hour weeks.Top Takeaways“Should I hire a coach?” isn't the first question. Start with: What problem am I solving right now? Accountability? Systems? Marketing? ADHD-friendly productivity?Pick by fit, not hype. Know your learning style (step-by-step system vs. options menu; strategy vs. energetics—or a blend).Cost ≠ ROI. A $50k package when you're under $100k revenue is rarely wise. Do the math, not the mantra.Don't stack mentors you can't implement. Learning ≠ doing. Implementation wins.Vet for longevity, ethics, and lifestyle match.

Have you ever found yourself spiraling over where to show up online?
In this episode we're talking about something that's rarely said out loud…The social media “visibility game” is broken.And if you've been running yourself ragged trying to keep up with the content treadmill, I see you. I've been there.But here's the truth no one told us: ✨ You don't have to be everywhere to be seen. ✨ You don't need a massive audience to have massive impact. ✨ And authority? It has nothing to do with algorithms.If your content isn't converting the way you want…This might be why:You're focused on visibility, not authority.Visibility just means people see you.Authority means they trust you, refer you, and hire you.In today's episode of the Your Legacy Brand® Podcast, I'm sharing the truth about algorithm burnout, and how to get back to a strategy that actually works (and feels good).I'm also walking you through: ✔️ Why the “spray and pray” method of content no longer works ✔️ How to choose a primary platform that feels like home ✔️ Real client stories that show how doing less leads to moreAnd remember, if social media has been draining your energy instead of growing your brand, it might be time to try something new.

How do you go from giving short, tip-focused talks to inspiring audiences with a full keynote? That's exactly the journey our guest has taken and it's one so many of us can learn from. Our lead speaking coach Diane Diaz talks with Elaine Schomburg-LaFleur, a senior project engineer who has spent over 20 years in the theme park industry, including at Disney. Elaine thought of herself as “the tip girl” - packing her presentations with lots of helpful advice. But when she was invited to give her first keynote, she realized she needed a new approach. With the help of a VIP Day and our in-person Speaking Accelerator workshop, Elaine discovered how to weave stories into her talks, connect emotionally with her audience, and step into her authentic speaking style. The result? Not only did she deliver a powerful keynote to a room of young women engineers, she also caught the “speaking bug” and has continued landing and delivering talks that inspire. What You'll Hear in This Episode: Elaine's transition from sharing only tips to becoming an inspiring keynote speaker How storytelling makes even technical topics more engaging and memorable The role of authenticity in building confidence and audience connection What Elaine gained from practicing in community and receiving real-time feedback How she continues to grow her visibility and speaking career through LinkedIn and pitching opportunities Elaine's story is proof that you don't have to change who you are to be a great speaker - you just need to unlock the authentic voice that's already within you. About Our Guest: Elaine Schomburg-LaFleur is a Senior Project Engineer at AOA and has over 22 years of experience in the entertainment industry, leading projects in engineering, design, and technical management for major theme parks. She balances big-picture strategy with technical detail to bring projects to life. Outside of work, she's a certified sommelier, teaches wine classes, and mentors with the Society of Women Engineers. Passionate about STEM outreach, she loves inspiring the next generation. About Us: The Speaking Your Brand podcast is hosted by Carol Cox.

Welcome back to the Good Girls Get Rich podcast and I'm your host, Karen Yankovich. If you've ever thought, “I like working… I just hate the way I'm working,” you're not alone. This episode of the Good Girls Get Rich Podcast was inspired by a Facebook post from a new mom on maternity leave who dreaded going back to her job. She loved being productive and using her brain — but hated the micromanagement, the stress, the traffic, and missing her baby's milestones. And I remember that feeling. The early-morning commutes. The endless meetings. The sinking sense that your brilliance is building someone else's dream while yours waits on the sidelines. Here's the truth: This isn't burnout — it's misalignment. And alignment is your birthright. We want to hear your thoughts on this episode! Leave us a message on Speakpipe or email us at info@karenyankovich.com. About The Episode and Highlights: In Episode 322, I share 10 high-income business ideas you can build from the career skills you already have — so you can work in your zone of genius, enjoy more flexibility, and create financial independence. These strategies work whether you're ready for a full career change or want to start something alongside your current role. The Consultant Path – Turn Your Expertise into a Premium Service Consultants get paid for their brains, not just their time. If companies hire outside experts for projects you could do, you can become that expert. Instead of billing hourly, create value-based packages that reflect the results you deliver. Example: If you're in HR, offer a “Recruitment Process Audit” for growing companies — at a premium rate. The Course Creator Path – Build a Profitable Online Program You've likely taught or explained something 100 times in your career. Package that knowledge into an online course, workshop, or training series. You can create it once and sell it over and over. Example: A PTA president could create “The Ultimate Guide to Running a Successful PTA” and sell it nationwide. The Coach or Mentor Path – Guide the Next Generation People already ask, “How did you do that?” Turn your experience into a coaching or mentoring business. Whether 1:1 or in a group, you can support the next wave of women in your industry Example: A finance VP could mentor women looking to break into leadership roles. The VIP Day Model – Deliver High-Value Results in One Day Some clients want high-touch, quick results and are willing to pay a premium for it. A VIP Day lets you dedicate one day to solving a client's problem from start to finish. Example: A yoga instructor offers a private, customized wellness retreat day — including movement, meditation, and nutrition planning — for $2,000. The Done-With-You Model – Collaborate for Success Perfect for perfectionists — you don't do everything for the client, but you work alongside them. This builds intimacy and keeps your workload lighter. Example: In my She's LinkedUp program, we write LinkedIn profiles with our clients, ensuring their voice shines through. Digital Products – Sell What You've Already Created Templates, checklists, email scripts, or spreadsheets you've made for your own job can become instant-download products. They sell while you sleep and position you as an authority. Example: A project manager could sell a “Team Communication Toolkit” with meeting agendas and templates. Speaking & Training – Get Paid to Share Your Expertise Corporations, associations, and schools all pay for expert speakers and trainers. Build a speaker kit and start pitching topics you're passionate about. Example: A marketing director could teach “Brand Storytelling for Nonprofits” at association events. The Thought Leadership Path – Build a Brand that Attracts Dream Clients Consistently showing up online builds authority. Post on LinkedIn, do podcast interviews, and publish articles. The more visible you are, the more opportunities come to you. Example: A career coach shares weekly LinkedIn posts and guest articles on work-life balance, leading to client referrals. The Advisory Path – Offer Strategic Guidance If you have expertise in startups, boards, or nonprofits, you can offer advisory services. It's a way to provide high-level input without being tied to a 9–5 schedule. Example: A retired educator advises a startup creating educational tech for schools. The Boutique Agency Path – Lead a Small, Profitable Team Hire a small team to do what you currently do and step into the CEO role. Start with just one or two clients and grow at your pace. Example: A social media freelancer builds a boutique agency specializing in Instagram marketing for women-led brands. Magical Quotes From The Episode: “This isn't burnout — it's misalignment. And alignment is your birthright.” “Stop pouring your brilliance into someone else's dream. Start building your own.” “Every single one of these business models is rooted in skills you already have — you don't need another certification.” “The life you want is closer than you think, but you have to choose it.” Resources Mentioned In the Episode: I created a special guide to go with this episode — 50 Business Ideas from Real-Life Paychecks.

Do you ever feel like you're stuck in the "expert trap" - sharing lots of great information, but not quite connecting with your audience the way you want to? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Teri DeLucca, founder of Impact Early Education and a graduate of our Thought Leader Academy, about how she made the bold leap from academic researcher and fact-based presenter to transformational speaker and sought-after thought leader. Teri has not one, but TWO PhDs (yes, you read that right!), and like many high-achieving women, she found comfort in data and research. But as she began training preschool teachers and school leaders, she realized that just presenting facts wasn't creating the impact she truly wanted. In our conversation, Teri shares: What led her to start her own business and step into entrepreneurship The power of personal storytelling in leadership and speaking How embracing vulnerability changed everything for her and her audiences Her transformation through the Thought Leader Academy and how it impacted her signature talk Her behind-the-scenes prep for a major international keynote (and why she called me in for a VIP Day!) Why it's not only okay, but essential, to share your personal challenges as a speaker and leader If you've ever worried that being real with your audience might hurt your credibility, you need to hear what Teri says about the moment she realized not sharing her struggles was actually holding her back. Teri's story is proof that when you let go of perfection and speak from a place of truth, that's when real transformation happens—for you and the people you're meant to reach. This conversation originally aired as episode 338 on July 17, 2023. Links: Show notes: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/escape-expert-trap/ Learn more about Teri's work at ImpactEarlyEd.com.
