20 Minutes with Bronwyn
Bronwyn Saglimbeni
Welcome to 20 Minutes with Bronwyn. I’m your host Bronwyn Saglimbeni. I’m a communication coach, keynote speaker, and writer. For over two decades, I’ve helped leaders at places like Stanford, NVIDIA, Cisco, and Oracle, as well as founders, philanthropists, and dreamers, learn how to become spellbinding communicators.
Each episode, you’ll hear conversations with brilliant thinkers, boundary-pushers, and everyday humans who have something unforgettable to say. Together, we’ll explore storytelling, energy management, listening, conflict, and all the messy, beautiful parts of being heard in a noisy world.
If you’re ready to ditch the script, find your voice, and shine on stage, in the boardroom, or across the dinner table — you’re in the right place.
