Hi! It’s Iona. Here’s exactly how to book your first (or next) 4-figure speaking gig.
Perhaps you’re wondering…
where does she get the audacity!?
If you get slammed with “I’d rather die” resistance just thinking about pitching, you need toStop Playing Small.
In my workshop, Stop Playing Small, I teach you exactly how to make one brave move that advances your career within 24 hours, and how to build the self-image to follow through.
So, how did she…
-
... get Seth Godin, bestselling author of 19 books, to endorse her book when she had less than 500 followers?
-
... book her first paid speaking gig in 2023… and book a $12,500 speaking gig this year?
-
... get a German guy she'd met ONCE to provide his bank account as proof she had money so she could stay in the US and get her masters when her family didn't have the funds?
-
... plus a reframe for rejection that makes it easier to cope with crickets
-
... and a simple 5-step process (and workbook) to be braver when pitching yourself
-
Leave this one empty 😊
Stop Playing Small is the answer to your fuck-filled, non-religious prayers
You get a zero-fluff Stop Playing Small Action Plan to fill out during the workshop to force you to follow through. Some gentle bullying might be involved :)

Hi, I’m Iona. I am the founder of Brave Thing. At Brave Thing, we help you expand your self-image, become a braver version of yourself, and do brave things.
Not someday. Today.
And, look. I'm not lucky, a nepo baby, or special.
I spent the first 29 years of my life with a stone in my chest instead of a beating heart.
But guess what I discovered slaying the starve-binge-fueled depression dragon who scorched hope out the first 29 years of my life, and building a successful business in my 30s?
Being brave will fuck your whole life up in the best way possible, if you let it.
Becoming a braver version of yourself is not complicated, but it won’t just ‘happen for you.’
You've got to choose to Stop Playing Small.
Iona xo
