Craft Your Signature Talk Coaching
Turn Your Story into a Stage-Worthy Message That Grows Your Impact — in Business and Leadership
Are you an ambitious entrepreneur, coach, or leader who knows you should be speaking more, but wants a process that you can repeat over and over again?
You have the expertise, the stories, and the passion.
But when it comes to translating all of that into a talk that connects, inspires, and positions you as a thought leader... you freeze.
Maybe you’ve been invited to speak on a panel but felt unsure what to share.
Maybe you’ve been tapped for a company town hall or industry conference, but didn’t feel confident owning the spotlight.
Or maybe you’ve been relying on off-the-cuff remarks in meetings or presentations... yet you know it’s time to elevate your presence.
Through my Signature Talk Coaching Program, you’ll create a talk that feels like you... authentic, story-driven, and strategically designed to amplify your credibility and influence.
So you can attract dream clients, earn more speaking invitations, and make a lasting impact every time you step on stage... or take the mic.
Hi! I'm Darlene Hawley.
As a communication and leadership coach, I help entrepreneurs and executives find their voice... and use it to lead, inspire, and stand out.
Through my proven framework, you’ll walk away with a powerful signature talk you can use in any setting... client presentations, team meetings, industry panels, or keynotes, that builds your reputation and drives results.
You’ll leave with:
- A talk that showcases your expertise and leadership voice.
- A message that creates trust and connection with your audience.
- The confidence to speak with clarity, warmth, and conviction anywhere your voice is needed..
Do Any of These Sound Familiar?
- You’ve been asked to speak on a panel or present your work but didn’t feel fully prepared.
- You have years of experience and insight, but your message isn’t landing the way you want.
- You’re seen as competent... but not yet the go-to voice in your field.
- You have stories and expertise worth sharing but aren’t sure how to frame them for impact.
- You want to raise your profile inside your company or industry... and be recognized for your thought leadership.
- You’re craving more visibility and influence without having to “sell yourself.”
Imagine how good it will feel to be invited to speak, and actually look forward to it. To know exactly what to say, how to say it, and how to leave your audience inspired to take action.
What if Things Could Be Different?
Imagine having someone by your side to help you:
- Identify your “big idea” and message that positions you as a thought leader in your field.
- Craft stories that connect emotionally while showcasing your expertise.
- Build a presentation you can use in any setting... team meetings, conferences, or panels.
- Speak with authority, authenticity, and presence so your ideas stick.
- Develop a call to action that aligns with your personal or organizational mission.
- Learn how to pitch your talk for podcasts, panels, and industry events that expand your visibility.
You’re not just building a talk... you’re building your
leadership platform.
That’s why I created Craft Your Signature Talk... to help ambitious professionals and entrepreneurs go from hidden to heard, from uncertain to unforgettable.
Here's what we'll work on:
1. Clarify Your Big Idea
Define what you want to be known for—and how it connects to your brand, business, or leadership impact.
2. Find the Story Only You Can Tell
Choose personal, professional, or client stories that humanize your leadership and build credibility.
3. Shape Your Call to Action
Clarify the shift you want your audience to make—whether it’s changing a belief, taking action, or saying “yes” to your next step.
4. Build Your Framework
Develop a clear structure that keeps your audience engaged and focused.
5. Map Out Your Problem–Cause–Solution
Position yourself as a trusted guide who understands your audience’s challenges and offers a path forward.
6. Write and Refine Your Talk
Craft a natural, conversational flow that reflects your personality and authority.
7. Practice for Presence
Strengthen your delivery, stage presence, and voice so you command attention with authenticity.
8. Polish, Rehearse, and Record
Rehearse your talk, receive real-time coaching, and practice adapting it for different audiences (keynotes, panels, internal meetings).
9. Amplify Your Message
Create a visibility plan—how to share your message through podcasts, conferences, panels, and internal leadership opportunities.
Who This is For:
Entrepreneurs and Coaches
ready to grow visibility and attract more clients through speaking.
Executives and Emerging Leaders
who want to strengthen their leadership voice and be recognized as experts in their field.
Industry Professionals and Thought Leaders
seeking more speaking invitations, panels, and opportunities to share their message.
