Intro To Corporate Speaking for Women

Corporate speaking is a hidden gem—and one of the most under-tapped income streams for women with powerful voices. Because the industry is often exclusive and gatekept, this experience is designed to pull back the curtain and show everyday women how to enter this lucrative space.
You don’t need a Fortune 500 title to bring value. Your life experiences, leadership journey, communication style, or resilience through adversity can be packaged into powerful lessons that benefit corporate teams—especially in areas like mental health, DEI, authenticity, leadership, and team dynamics.
