382: 3 Signs You're Stuck in the Expert Trap with Your Public Speaking

I know you want to grow your business and brand and have a bigger impact as a thought leader.

But, as high-achieving women, there are beliefs we have that get us stuck in the expert trap.

We believe that we need to teach/train to provide value; that training content is what our audience wants; and our identity is tied to seeing ourselves as the expert.

These beliefs are what can hold you back from thought leadership and the impact and income you want to make.

The problem is that your presentations and content are undifferentiated and lack emotional resonance.

In this episode, I share 3 signs you’re stuck in the expert trap and how to get out.
