Part I: Developing Your Gift: Recap of 7 Figure Speaker Conference with Dr. Derrick Burgess

It's not the money that matters, but the influence. Public speaking is an art that blends skill, authenticity, and emotional intelligence. However, in today’s competitive world, people often find themselves caught in the misconception that success in public speaking is solely measured by financial gains. Some people expect rewards without putting in the necessary work and building credibility.

Hence, we must understand that impact, influence, and income take a lot of effort and dedication to achieve. It takes some serious elbow grease to make it happen. And it's not just about standing in front of people and talking but about making a real difference which involves confidence with competence and truly putting in the time to get good at what you're doing. We must also embrace the qualities of a seven-figure speaker that embody the essence of strong values, great work ethic, and sustainability. Because truly in every career choice, you can't expect to show up and win. You've got to train hard, understand the journey, and be ready for all kinds of weather. In essence, success in this arena is not measured solely by the size of the paycheck but by the depth of influence and the enduring character of a person.

In this solo episode, I will guide you through an enriching exploration of the various insights I’ve learned from industry experts during the Seven-Figure Speaker course that empowered me to navigate the world of public speaking with confidence and purpose. This episode touches on diverse topics including the importance of values, work ethic, and disciplined time management, the connection between competence and confidence, how to become an impactful speaker, and the three pillars of impact, influence, and income. Buckle up and get ready to grow and learn how to truly embody the essence of a seven-figure person.

“Don't try to mimic what everybody else is doing. Create valuable content as it pertains to yourself and be consistent, collaborate with others, develop your expertise, and then when you do those things, when you have the impact when you have the influence, the income will take care of itself.” – Dr. Derrick Burgess
