Show notes

Quote: “In the beginning, I was too afraid to approach anyone, so if you’re afraid, just get someone to help you until you have that momentum.” Shola Kaye

Do you feel like something is holding you back in your speaking business, or do you have more of a “the sky’s the limit” mentality? I think most of us have felt like we could or should be doing more at one time or another. On this episode of The Wealthy Speaker Show, we welcome (from across the pond) Shola Kaye to share how she has scaled her speaking business over the past couple of years and that the possibilities really are endless.

She has a degree in Natural Sciences from Cambridge University, completed scientific research in the field of Neuroscience at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, and spent a number of years working in the United States in financial services.
