If you’ve ever wondered “How do I land paid speaking gigs when I don’t have an audience, connections, or experience?” — girl, I’ve got you.

In this episode of Make It Visible, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing exactly what I’d do if I had to start from scratch. 

No guesswork, no fluff — just real, practical steps to help you get booked and paid to speak.

Here's what you'll learn from this episode:

  • Why clarity on who you help and what problem you solve is key
  • How to find the right events and build a curated list of opportunities
  • The importance of pitching yourself (and following up!)

How every speaking engagement can lead to your next one

🔥 Plus: I’ll share the two non-negotiable things you need before pitching any event organizer — and how you can learn them inside my free 3-day masterclass, “Get Clients and Speaking Gigs.”
