Every speaking career runs through three seasons: grind, grow and give. Knowing which one you're in changes what you should be measuring.

In this episode of Speak Goodr, I share the honest reason Speak Goodr went quiet, the three seasons I see in every speaking career, including my own, and the motto I came back to after getting so busy building that I forgot it. If you're in the grind right now, your job is reps, not visibility.

In this episode

• The three seasons of a speaking career: grind, grow and give
• Why so much "become a paid speaker" advice is snake oil
• Why you should stop measuring your season against someone else's
• What one NSA chapter showed me about giving back
• One thing you can use today
