<p>“Only famous people get booked to speak on stages.”</p><p>It’s one of the most limiting public speaking myths—and one that quietly convinces so many capable speakers that stages are for other people, not them.</p><p>In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, I’m unpacking where this belief comes from, why it’s misleading, and how it kept me doubting myself—even before my very first in-person speaking gig as someone who was definitely not famous.</p><p>We’ll cover:</p><ul><li><p>The myth that says you need a big name or big following to get booked</p></li><li><p>What my first in-person speaking gig looked like without fame or credentials</p></li><li><p>Why your past experience or speaking fee does <strong>not</strong> define your worth</p></li><li><p>What would actually happen if event hosts only hired the same five celebrities</p></li><li><p>What organizers are really looking for when they book speakers</p></li></ul><p>If you’ve ever told yourself “I’m not known enough yet,” this episode is a reminder that stages don’t belong to celebrities—they belong to people with lived experience, clarity, and something meaningful to share.</p><p>🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to stop waiting to be chosen and start trusting that your voice is already enough.</p><p>Enjoyed the show?

<p>“I need to have something brand new to say.”</p><p>It’s one of the most paralyzing public speaking myths—and one that keeps so many smart, experienced people from ever pitching themselves or saying yes to speaking opportunities.</p><p>In this episode of the Public Speaking Myths Series, we’re dismantling the belief that you need a completely original idea in order to get booked to speak.</p><p>We’ll talk about:</p><ul><li><p>The myth that says your message has to be brand new to be valuable</p></li><li><p>The uncomfortable truth: when you boil it down, most of us are teaching the same core ideas</p></li><li><p>Where the real difference lies—and what actually makes you unique as a speaker</p></li><li><p>Why your lived experience, perspective, and voice matter more than novelty</p></li></ul><p>If you’ve been holding yourself back because you think your message isn’t unique enough, this episode is your permission slip to stop overthinking and start showing up.</p><p>🎙️ Press play if you’re ready to reclaim your voice and remember: it’s not about saying something no one has ever said—it’s about saying it in a way only you can.</p><p>Enjoyed the show?
