Want to know how to book a TEDx Talk? Listen in on a conversation with speaking coach Megan Hamilton — who's been the speaker advisor at the second largest TEDx in Canada for 12+ years and has coached TEDx talks around the world — to break down exactly how to book a TEDx talk, even if you've never set foot on a stage before.
We're covering everything from what the TEDx organizers are scanning for when they pick speakers (hint: it's not your business pitch), to why 'selling from the stage' is majorly against the TED rules (and a BETTER way to leverage your talk to grow your business).
Dreaming of being a keynote speaker? Tap play because in this episode, we get into:
- 3 steps to take right now if you're dreaming about speaking on a TEDx stage some day
- What TEDx organizers look for when they choose speakers (and why "I want to grow my business" is the wrong energy to bring)
- The TEDx audition process
- Rules that get your entire talk rejected from the TEDx YouTube channel
- How to start building relationships with TEDx organizers near you, before you're anywhere near ready to audition
- Strategies for leveraging a TEDx talk into bigger stages, press, and business opportunities

The takeaway: Booking a TEDx talk isn't about waiting to get discovered — it's about treating it like any other visibility strategy: relationship-building, positioning, and being ready when the door opens. Megan lays out exactly where to start, today, even if your talk is still just a spark of an idea.
