The Secrets of Learning & Development
From Audience Seats to Centre Stage: Our Speak and Shine Experience
If you enjoyed this podcast, we'd love to hear from you!
In this bonus episode of The Secrets of Learning and Development, Julia and Valerie share their personal journey from sitting in the audience to stepping onto the stage at the Speak & Shine Summit.
Speak & Shine is a platform that helps women build confidence, raise their visibility, and share meaningful messages on stage. After watching from the sidelines, both Julia and Valerie decided to take the leap and discovered just how powerful it feels to step up and truly own your voice.
They open up about the nerves, the preparation, the unexpected challenges, and the standout moments that made the experience unforgettable. From the writing process to the reactions in the room, this conversation is a candid look at what it really takes to move from “I could never do that” to “I did it and I grew from it.”
If you’ve ever wondered what might happen if you said yes to being seen in a bigger way, this episode might be the encouragement you need.
