Hi folks, Our regular weekly Inspiring Talks call for today is canceled. We'll be back again next week at our regular time for our first meeting of 2026. Looking forward to seeing you all then! Happy New Year everyone, and THANK YOU to every single one of you for helping make the Inspiring Speakers community what it was in 2025. We appreciate all of you very much and look forward to many great things in the New Year ahead 🙏👏🚀 To your speaking success! Drew and David Inspiring Speakers Bureau "Inspire the World!"

This is it ... December 31st. The year is done. The sales funnels did their bit. The sales campaigns have come to an end. And now we have our numbers. Not to beat ourselves up with. Not to assume superiority. Just a gauge of what worked and what didn't. What we should do more of, what we need to tweak, and what we should walk away from. Since I have been on vaca for a bit, my decisions have already been made. More promotion of Onboarding program. Tweak (and continue to tweak) social media efforts. Walk away from Playdoh partnership (not a good fit). And with the decisions made, my new year is set - the year of the KEYNOTE! And I am excited! Happy New Year Everyone! Let's make it our best year yet!! Love ya! Sandi

This might be the pause you need! The vacation season gives us something rare — space. Space to slow down, reflect, and quietly realign with what truly matters. If you’re feeling a little reflective (or creatively restless), this is a good time to revisit our Replay Library of Inspiring Talks — built over the past 32 weeks. 32 weeks of powerful conversations Watch the replays here: https://www.skool.com/inspiring-speakers-bureau-4973/watch-the-replays-of-inspiring-talks-and-join-us-live Did any talk give you a new idea or question?

A meaningful conversation with Karl Taft on CEO Authors. What made this exchange stand out wasn’t speed or sound bites — it was presence.The kind of questions that don’t steer the conversation, but open it.The kind of listening that allows insight to surface naturally. We explored leadership, self-trust, imposter syndrome, intuition, and what it really means to love oneself — not as theory, but as lived practice. Grateful for hosts who understand that depth doesn’t need drama… just attention. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kih1H5eidFw&t=217s

Here’s a growth secret the pros use: content licensing. Instead of selling your time, sell your framework. 3 Ways to License Your Work - Corporate clients: license your training videos for internal use. - Associations: offer your course as a member benefit. - Other coaches: let them teach your framework (for a fee). 🎤 Speaker Tip of the Week: Licensing turns your message into an asset that earns while you sleep.
