“I stepped out of my comfort zone and overcame my fear,
beasted my presentation and joined my friend as a proud Shine alum.”

FOUNDATIONS
Shine Speaker Foundation is a new program. We're using this quote from Shine Alum, Zakiya, to highlight the different intent and sentiment when picking a program right for you :)
Foundations
Shine Speaker Foundations is right for you if:
You are committed to your personal development and demonstrate a willingness to learn
You want to improve your overall presentation skills but you don’t necessarily want to be a “speaker”
You want opportunities to practice speaking, presenting, and communicating your expertise and knowledge
You experience self-doubt or a lack of confidence
You sometimes have difficulty speaking up in meetings or advocating for yourself
You thrive in environments with accountability, assignments, and deadlines - but not high stress
You enjoy sharing ideas and seeking solutions with others
You are seeking community, friendship, encouragement and support
Accelerator
The Shine Speaker Accelerator is for you if:
You are ready to hit large-scale conferences
You have already done some some speaking
You have a wish-list of conferences you want to speak at
You plan to pitch yourself
You are ready to book more speaking engagements to grow your career, business, and platform
You recently secured a conference gig and want to get stage ready
You crave the accountability and guidance that private and small group coaching offer
You welcome critical feedback and are prepared to work through the messy stuff to experience breakthroughs
You are seeking a speaking network who will amplify your message and help you secure bigger speaking opportunities
“I had a podcast. I wrote for Forbes and Inc. I was comfortable speaking.
But I applied to Shine to take my speaking to the next level.”
