In August, I merged my speaker coaching business with Emily Hall’s presentation design agency… and last week we announced our decision to untangle ourselves back to separate companies. I won’t try to hide it – it’s been an emotionally difficult few weeks, but we’re both super optimistic (and still BFFs).

 In this episode, I'm getting real, raw and vulnerable as I share with my the behind the scenes that lead to this decision, what I’ve learned along the way and a message to remind you that when you learn to change and adapt with purpose, you’ll become even stronger.

Episode Highlights:

• Elephant in the room: let’s talk about my business failure highlight reel (Ugh! I can't help but cringe at the memory)
• Messy conversations in business—learn how you can courageously lean into this and serve you well
• Untangling my business partnership— why we’re going back to solo entities
• A peak at what’s to come in this now solo chapter of The Speaker co, including the WHY behind my new program, Signature Talk Accelerator

Favorite Episode Quote:

“Change is not failure. It's just reality taking shape differently than you pictured. And sometimes that is what's required to get to your next level.” - Heather Sager
