APPLY NOW

You’re Ready for the Red Circle

You already know you have something powerful to say.

You’ve built experience, wisdom, and perspective that can change how people think, act, or lead.

Now, you’re ready to share that message with the world from the red circle.

A TEDx talk isn’t just a milestone; it’s a launchpad. It elevates your credibility, amplifies your influence, and creates opportunities to reach audiences far beyond your current network.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know I have a TEDx talk in me, but I don’t know where to start,” this program is your answer.

 

Who This is For…

Ready for Ted™ is for the visionary who’s ready to turn their ideas into impact. This personalized speaker development program is for:

  • Entrepreneurs and founders who want to crystallize their vision into a talk that inspires clients, investors, and communities.

  • Coaches, consultants, and authors who know a TEDx talk can amplify their brand and open new doors.

  • Corporate and nonprofit leaders who have a transformative idea and want to lead conversations that matter.

  • Change-makers, advocates, and storytellers who feel called to use their voice for good, but need the structure, insight, and strategy to make it happen.

Over eight weeks, you’ll move from idea to impact — refining your message, finding your voice, and learning how to confidently share your idea with the world.

With Toni Purry’s expert guidance and insider perspective, you’ll do more than prepare a talk — you’ll step fully into the thought leader you were meant to be.

 

This Program Isn’t for Everyone

Ready for Ted™ isn’t a quick-fix course — it’s a transformational process.

It’s designed for people who are ready to do the deep work of discovering, shaping, and sharing an idea worth spreading.

It’s not for:

  • Those looking for a quick formula without doing the introspective work.

  • Those who want to sell from the stage rather than share an authentic message.

  • Those not ready to invest time in crafting something deeply meaningful and true to their voice.

If that doesn’t sound like you, keep reading. You might discover you’re closer than you think.

Because if you’re ready to dig deep, refine your voice, and deliver a talk that moves people and leaves a legacy, you’re exactly where you belong.

You’re ready for Ready for Ted™.

Testimonials

The level of support you provided throughout my TEDx journey was above and beyond. From our weekly brainstorming sessions, to the countless revisions, to the numerous times you listened to me rehearse, your dedication was unparalleled. Having you backstage on the day of my talk, watching me walk on and off that red circle, and cheering me on from the audience was the ultimate confidence boost. You weren’t just a coach—you were my partner in this incredible journey. I can’t thank you enough for helping me stand in my authority and shine.
— Cindy Tsai, MD
I will always remember how you guided me in refining my keynote for Stanford University, and the hour-long audience Q&A that followed.

I am endlessly grateful for your dedication and belief in me.
