Week 1: 

Create an Irresistible Vision

Whether you are standing in that red circle delivering your TEDx talk or speaking to your local city group, the format is the same - grab your audience’s attention and sustain it! Using a simple repeatable process, you’ll brainstorm ideas until yours rings true and you are ready to write! 

 Week 2:

Craft Your Compelling Content

Working with powerful stories to engage your participants, you'll see how the pictures from your experiences imprint your listeners, leaving a lasting, learning impression. 

This week you will gain acumen in sequencing your content to create a step by step roadmap to success.

Week 3:

Magnetize Your Audience Each Moment

What most presenters forget is that our attention span is that of a fly: 7 seconds long! To keep a viewer’s interest, you have to know your material inside and out! Rehearsal is essential!

Week 4: 

Write and Submit an Electrifying Application

TEDx speakers land that invitation by finding the TEDx event with a theme that compels them, then crafting and submitting a compelling application. This week focuses on doing just that!

Week 5:

Build Your Brand to Make Your Presence Sticky

What simplifies the judging process is when your website and your brand presence are aligned, simple and beautiful filled with great headshots and video samples of you at your best. Then, make sure you are ready to promote it once it launches!

Week 6:

Nail the Finish and Raise the Crowd

One of the most essential speaker and presenter skills is ensuring that your finish – those final moments wrap up your presentation and invite the viewers to take that next step with you. It’s a compelling ask or a challenge, it might be a final quote or finishing image. But this moment matters, and the one that follows makes the difference between building a tribe versus missing an opportunity.  

This is the time to get your voice heard! Your idea deserves it and so do you.

Here’s what people say about virtual talks and classes with Patti…

I watched Patti’s TED talk just over a year ago. I was in a job that was so stressful that it was affecting my physical and mental health. I drew my FUTURE - my desired state. I was HAPPY surrounded by lots of SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE at work. Fast forward to today. Guess what? I AM loving my work life (if you could even call it work!). I quit my job last November, let my creative juices flow and started my own business - thank you, Patti, for your inspiration!!!

  Patti is amazingly generous, creative, inspiring and loves helping people realize and achieve their goals and dreams. I participated in her Wizard at the Whiteboard class and the 5 Day Challenge. Her work has transformed my life. I discovered a precious forgotten dream that is now infused with new energy. I believe in this work so much that I am becoming a certified ambassador.
