Just so you know... I plan to offer this course at $999
However, during COVID-19, the world needs your mission and your message more than ever, I don’t want you to wait one more day before sharing your message on that next stage.
In service of this, I’m offering this entire course right now for $37.
Imagine if for the price of a tank of gas or a single blowout you could start pitching and booking stage after stage in front of your ideal client, expand your email list and massively increase your impact... today!
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room for a second. You already KNOW you need to get on more stages. You’ve maybe even landed a few already. But you still haven’t been on nearly as many stages, reached as many people, or maximized your impact as much as you know you could be. Why?
Maybe you are like me.
Fifteen years ago I felt a calling to speak. I’d attend an event and SEE myself on that stage instead of in the audience. I felt my body tingle as the audience rose to their feet and KNEW I was meant to deliver that same kind of inspiration.
But I couldn’t pitch. I was filled with doubts, terrified of visibility and what others would think. I compared myself to other writers and coaches where I always came up short. I feared the rejection I knew could come when I pitched my talk. I made less than $16,000 a year as a coach.
Then, I dug deep into my mindset. I dedicated myself to speaking and pitching mastery. I put together a system that would both create a mindset breakthrough so I had the clarity and courage to put my message out to the world AND contained the most effective strategies to maximize the # of YES’s I received. I went from making $16,000 a year to breaking six figures for the first time. I booked talks at major hospitals, women’s centers, conferences, community organizations, libraries, podcasts, virtual masterclasses, online interviews and more. Soon, organizations were contacting me to speak at their events! This work became the foundation for the process I am going to teach you in this program.
Almost every client I’ve coached has had some version of the same concerns I did. They boil down to 2 myths that have stopped so many talented, amazing individuals from fulfilling their speaking and missions.
Myth #1: Pitching/Speaking is overwhelming
You know you should be on stage, but you haven’t gotten started or taken any significant action towards landing stages because you have no idea where to start.
You don’t know how to research opportunities, how to pitch, or how to follow-up. Because of this, when you sit down to work you end up spinning your wheels and wasting your precious time. You could have been spending that time writing or serving your existing clients instead - ugh!
If you’ve ever tried to land a stage but given up before you even sent the pitch, then let me help you. I’ve broken down everything I’ve used and my clients have used to book more than 1000 stages.
Myth #2: I’m not (big, successful, well-known, confident, creative, established you fill in the blank) enough
This is the REAL reason you’re probably not booking stages. Visibility can be terrifying. All the fears surface: who do you think you are? Why would someone want to hear you speak? Self-doubt is so sneaky and all it does is lead to self-sabotage and stopping before you even get started. Let me tell you what I wished I knew 15 years ago when I started speaking - those fears are a LIE! You can feel that deep inside you - right? You wouldn’t be here if you weren’t amazing, talented, passionate and needed on stage. Having the calling to speak MEANS you’re worthy, approved, capable, and the world needs your message!
You can either be scared or you can make the difference you were meant to make on this planet. You haven’t gotten this far only to throw in the towel now.
You already have everything you need to be the expert. Let me show you how to start booking virtual stages like a boss so you can make the impact you were put on this planet to make!

Frequently Asked Questions
If you want to make a bigger impact, then speaking is 100% the fastest and most fulfilling way to do it. I attracted my first clients (and made my first 6-figures) because of speaking engagements and my clients and I have collectively made over a million dollars by adding virtual stages. Stages are your path to the big impact you desire. Period.
No problem! This course is perfect for you if you’re new to speaking because I break everything down into super simple systems and strategies. You’ll also love this course if you’ve spoken before but you want a new approach to landing bigger stages consistently and quickly.
It’s ok not to feel confident. I’ll let you in on a secret… we only achieve confidence by DOING! I still get nervous butterflies before some speaking gigs, and I’ve done hundreds! The only way to improve your confidence is by booking and rocking those talks. I’ll help guide you on the right stages to pitch when you’re starting out so you can get some solid practice under your belt before you go for the bigger stages.
First let me say this: you can position yourself as an expert no matter if you have years of experience in your field. It has a lot to do with owning your knowledge and positioning it favorably. I talk all about this in the How to Pitch lesson PLUS I give you my Perfect Pitch Template - a fill in the blank pitch that is designed to show you’re the expert.
I’m glad you asked this question! I know it’s an important one, so I’m covering all the details in a dedicated lesson on finding stages in the course. In that lesson, I show exactly where to look to find stage opportunities in your industry.
By now, you already know if this is for you. Trust your gut and join me so we can get you on virtual stages NOW!
