About this workshop
Most entrepreneurs know what they do. The problem is getting other people to feel it.
You can have the best offer in the room — but if your pitch falls flat, your story doesn't land, or you freeze the moment someone hits record, none of it matters. Clients don't buy the best product. They buy the one they understand, trust, and feel connected to.
This workshop is designed to close that gap.
In four hours, you'll work directly with three expert facilitators who will help you communicate your purpose, tell your story, and show up on camera — with clarity, confidence, and the kind of presence that makes people say yes.
3:00 - 4:00 PM · Master Your Pitch for Different Audiences
Led by Amirah Raveneau-Bey · Grow Scale Develop
You already know what you do. Now it's time to say it in a way that actually lands — for every room you walk into.
Amirah Raveneau-Bey is a Strategic Advisor and Executive Coach with 25+ years of revenue leadership experience at Zillow, Opendoor, NerdWallet, and Citibank. She has scaled businesses from early traction to $125M+ in monthly recurring revenue, led M&A integrations, and navigated business turnarounds that most people would have walked away from.
In this session, Amirah will coach you on how to tailor your message and value proposition for four distinct audiences — funders and investors, customers and clients, collaborators and partners, and anyone in a networking conversation. Through live pitch practice, messaging clarity exercises, and real-time feedback, you'll leave knowing exactly how to open your mouth in any room and make people want to lean in.
This is not a lecture. This is live coaching.
4:15 - 5:45 PM · The Epiphany Story Bridge
Led by Karen Huang · ChWebMedia
Facts tell. Stories sell. And the most powerful story you have is your own.
In this session, Karen Huang introduces the Epiphany Story Bridge — a 9-step storytelling framework that takes your personal journey and structures it into a brand story that is relatable, trust-building, and conversion-ready.
When you know how to tell your story this way, your audience doesn't just hear you — they see themselves in you. And that's the moment trust becomes connection, and connection becomes conversion.
Walk away with your Epiphany Story Bridge mapped out and ready to use.
5:45 - 6:00PM - Food & Connection Refuel, connect with fellow entrepreneurs, and recharge before the final session.
6:00 - 7:00 PM · Video Toastmasters Breakthrough Session
Led by Weihaur Lau · Beawaken
You know you need to show up on video. You've told yourself you'll do it tomorrow — and tomorrow keeps getting pushed.
In this session, Weihaur Lau creates a safe, small-group environment where you'll practice your pitch on camera, work through the fear that shows up the moment the recording starts, and walk out with your first brand or pitch video actually recorded.
Not planned. Not scripted. Done.
Through confidence-building exercises, authentic presence coaching, and live video practice, Weihaur will help you break through the wall that's been keeping you off camera — and show you that showing up as yourself is more than enough.
You will leave this session with a video. That is the goal.
Who this workshop is for
This workshop is for you if you are an entrepreneur, startup founder, small business owner, creative, or college student who is building something and ready to communicate it clearly.
It's for the person who freezes when someone asks "so what do you do?" It's for the person whose message makes sense in their head but gets lost in translation. It's for the person who has been avoiding the camera for months — maybe years. And it's for anyone who is tired of working hard and still not being fully seen, heard, or understood.
You don't have to be polished. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to show up ready to work.
