214: Top Takeaways from Our Speaking Coaches

214: Top Takeaways from Our Speaking Coaches

Get ready for a value-packed and heartfelt episode with key takeaways you can use as you think about your thought leadership message and signature talk and putting yourself out there.

This is a round table discussion with our speaking coaches who work with our clients in our Thought Leader Academy and with the speakers for our upcoming Brave. Bold. Beyond. Live Virtual Summit.

Joining me in this episode are Diane Diaz, Marie Fiebach, and Joy Spencer.

We talk about:

  • The shifts we’ve seen our clients go through over the past few months
  • Common challenges and obstacles we see clients face
  • The impact of being in community with other women working towards similar goals
  • Vulnerability and self-compassion when digging deeper into your story and message
  • The connection between the head, heart, and gut in thought leadership
  • Unlearning academic or marketing jargon when creating speeches
  • And more!

About Us: The Speaking Your Brand podcast is hosted by Carol Cox. At Speaking Your Brand, we help women entrepreneurs and professionals clarify their brand message and story, create their signature talks, and develop their thought leadership platforms. Our mission is to get more women in positions of influence and power because it's through women's stories and visibility that we challenge the status quo and change existing systems.

Become Bookable Live Online Workshop - April 15, 2026
If you want to speak more but you’re not sure where to start or your efforts haven’t produced the results you want, I’m hosting a live online workshop called “Become Bookable: How to Get Speaking Invitations” on Wednesday, April 15th.


A lot of brilliant women assume they just need to pitch themselves more. But the real reason speakers get invited isn’t because they pitch harder — it’s because they’re positioned as bookable.

In this 3-hour interactive workshop live on Zoom, I’ll show you how speakers actually get invited — and help you clarify the positioning that makes event organizers say yes.
