    From Miracle Survivor to Thought Leader: How Dave Sanderson Built a Speaking Business
    2026/07/21
    In this Speaker Life podcast episode, Miracle on the Hudson survivor and professional speaker Dave Sanderson shares how to turn a personal story into meaningful influence, a clear speaking message, and a sustainable speaking business. After surviving the 2009 US Airways Flight 1549 emergency landing on the Hudson River, Dave faced a defining realization: even after a life-changing experience, corporate life could still treat him like a number. That moment helped propel his transition from corporate sales professional to entrepreneur, thought leader, and transformational speaker. If you want to become a paid speaker, build confidence on stage, overcome imposter syndrome, or create a message that genuinely helps people, this conversation offers practical direction. Dave explains why you do not need a dramatic story to make an impact, how to discover the audience you are best positioned to serve, and how to test your message on smaller stages before building a larger platform. Lea Woodford and Dave also explore how aspiring speakers can build their business while still employed, invest in the right support, move beyond "inspirational" speaking into practical thought leadership, and create frameworks that give audiences an action they can use immediately. In this episode, you'll learn: How to transition from corporate employment to entrepreneurshipWhy professional speaking can create greater freedom and opportunityHow to know whether your personal story is worth sharing from the stageA mindset shift for overcoming imposter syndromeHow to find your ideal speaking audience and go deeper, not widerHow to turn your experience into a clear, useful speaking frameworkWhy audiences remember speakers who help them take actionHow to vet a speaking coach and build a stronger speaker brand What it means to lead without formal authority Whether you are an aspiring public speaker, coach, consultant, entrepreneur, executive, or leader, this episode will help you clarify your message, speak with greater purpose, and use your experience to create real impact. 👉 Subscribe to Speaker Life for more expert interviews, business insights, and actionable entrepreneur tips. ___________________________________________ Dave Sanderson was the last passenger off US Airways Flight 1549, the Miracle on the Hudson. He survived, then he made a decision: he wouldn't let that moment be the end of the story. With 38 years as a top sales producer and decades of experience leading under pressure, Dave founded Resilience Partners Group to help leaders and teams navigate crisis, uncertainty, and high-stakes change—without waiting for permission, perfect clarity, or a title. His work equips people to stay calm, make high-velocity decisions, and take the next best step even when the full path isn't visible. Dave has delivered keynotes for Fortune 500 organizations, coached executives, and helped raise $14.8 million for the American Red Cross. Named one of Inc.com's Top 100 Leadership Speakers, he is known for blending unforgettable storytelling with practical, immediately applicable tools. Dave's message is simple: You don't need a title to lead. You need clarity, courage, and conviction. He lives in Charlotte with his family—and speaks today with one goal: to help others lead when it matters most.

  • Stop Chasing AI Tools: Matt Leitz on Smarter Marketing for Speakers

    Stop Chasing AI Tools: Matt Leitz on Smarter Marketing for Speakers
    2026/07/14
    How can speakers, coaches, and entrepreneurs use AI to grow their business without wasting time chasing every new tool? In this episode of Speaker Life, host Leah Woodford sits down with AI automation expert Matt Leitz, founder of BotBuilders, to break down exactly what it takes to market and scale a business using artificial intelligence — the smart way. Matt has helped thousands of entrepreneurs implement AI into their marketing, sales, and content systems, and in this conversation he unpacks the three levels of AI every business owner needs to understand: AI-assisted, AI-automated, and AI-autonomous. He explains why chasing the "latest and greatest" tool is often a waste of time, why the idea of a "perfect prompt" is a myth, and how collaborating with tools like ChatGPT and Claude — rather than just prompting them — leads to dramatically better results. Leah and Matt also dig into some of the bigger questions surrounding AI in business today: Is it ethical to replace employees with AI? Is traditional SEO dying as AI search takes over? And where's the line between using AI video and avatars responsibly versus deceiving your audience? Matt shares his own experience creating a physical product with 98% of the work done by AI, and closes with three practical tips speakers and coaches can use right now to level up their marketing. In this episode, you'll learn: The 3 levels of AI (assisted, automated, autonomous) and how to use all three togetherWhy AI certifications matter less than actually using the tools dailyHow to get better results from ChatGPT and Claude by collaborating instead of "prompting"The ethical line between AI-powered content and deceiving your audience Whether AI should replace employees — and what to do insteadWhy traditional SEO is changing and what it means for your visibility in AI search (SEO, GEO, and AEO)3 actionable AI marketing tips for speakers, coaches, and entrepreneurs Topics covered: artificial intelligence, AI marketing, ChatGPT, Claude AI, AI automation, AI for entrepreneurs, AI for speakers and coaches, content marketing, email marketing automation, webinars, AI ethics, search engine optimization (SEO), generative engine optimization (GEO), answer engine optimization (AEO), personal branding, digital marketing strategy About the guest: Matt Leitz is the founder of BotBuilders and an AI automation expert who helps entrepreneurs, coaches, and speakers implement artificial intelligence into their marketing and business operations to save time and increase revenue.
