How to Speak Up and Share Your Expertise with Confidence (with Theresa Miller)
Theresa Miller on Space and Grace Podcast
You can know your subject inside out and still stay quiet when the opportunity to speak comes. Theresa Miller explains why women’s expertise is still underheard and how to speak clearly and confidently when it matters.
You can be highly experienced, know exactly what you’re talking about, and still hesitate when someone hands you the microphone.
In this episode, journalist, author and media trainer Theresa Miller joins me to talk about why women’s expertise is still underrepresented, what we lose when knowledgeable women stay in the background, and how to speak with more confidence and clarity.
We talk about:
Why speaking up can be a public service rather than self-promotion
How to explain your expertise without drowning people in jargon
Simple ways to structure a message so people actually understand it
Practical tools for managing nerves before a presentation or interview
Why credible expert voices matter even more in an era of misinformation and AI-generated content
We also explore the fear of judgement that can appear when you know you need to be more visible, but some part of you would still quite like to disappear.
