Who This Is For
This Masterclass Was Made for You If…
You don't need to have everything figured out before you show up. You just need to be serious about taking the next step.
You're curious but stuck
You've been thinking about giving a TEDx talk for a while but aren't sure where or how to start.
You have ideas, but doubt them
Your ideas feel important to you but you're not sure if they're "TEDx-worthy."
You've applied and been rejected
You've tried before but didn't get selected. You're ready to understand why and to apply smarter this time.
