Business Strategy for CPA's 084 Women: Speak Up in Your Field, with Carol Cox
Today’s guest is Carol Cox. Carol is the founder of Speaking Your Brand®, a coaching and training company that helps women entrepreneurs and leaders around the world create their signature talks, whether it’s for a keynote, TED talk, conference session or business presentation, and position themselves to get better (and paid) speaking engagements.
Carol is host of the weekly Speaking Your Brand® podcast and during election seasons serves as a Democratic political analyst on TV news in Orlando, Florida.
With an extensive background in business, tech, politics, media, and history, Carol’s mission is to help women develop their content and confidence, to raise their voices and visibility, to challenge the status quo and change existing systems.
Carol and I have known each other for 3 years, and I have worked with her in a variety of capacities over that time. She even gets credit for helping me coin the name, She Thinks Big Coaching.
Carol is here to help us understand what is keeping women from getting in front of the microphone.
Here are my top takeaways:
#1. Get over perfectionism. You have to start where you are, you will get better as you go, and there is no such thing as perfect, so stop chasing it.
#2. You’re doing your audience a disservice if you don’t share your expertise and tell people how they can work with you.
Remember that milllllions of Americans and business owners have challenges with their money and need guidance.
