Interview With Debbie Bryon TEDX Speaker - How t0 become a better speaker

The Speaking Secret That Transformed a Shy Introvert Into a TEDx Powerhouse

Here's something that'll blow your mind...

A few years ago, Debbie Bryon couldn't even order pizza over the phone without breaking into a cold sweat.

Fast forward to today? She's commanding standing ovations on TEDx stages, getting paid five figures for keynotes, and has a waiting list of clients begging to work with her.

What changed everything for her?

She found her "Big Domino."

Debbie was a hairdresser and a good one at that until she had the accident. What accident? I hear you say. 

The accident that Doctors told her she would be in a wheelchair by the time she's 55. Debbie defied the doctors and medical science, and at the age of 57, she's still walking around totally undaunted. 

Not only that, but during a recovery from this major car accident, she decided it would be a good idea to cycle across India. What did these two major things do for Debbie? They made her realise that she was more than what she believed she was, and she went from Terrified to Transformational.

Before embarking on a speaking career, Debbie was like most people – absolutely terrified of public speaking. She'd rather have a root canal than speak in front of more than two people.

But she had something burning inside her. A message that needed to get out.

"I know I need to speak," she told me during our first conversation. "But every time I think about it, I literally feel sick."

Sound familiar?

Here's what most "speaking coaches" would tell you: Practice more. Join Toastmasters. Start small.

All decent advice... but it's missing the ONE thing that actually matters.

The Speaking Secret Nobody Talks About

After working with hundreds of speakers – from complete beginners to seven-figure thought leaders – Debbie discovered something powerful:

Great speaking isn't about being perfect. It's about being real.

Debbie's breakthrough came when she stopped trying to be the perfect speaker and started being herself. Flaws, quirks, nervous energy, going red and all.

That's when everything clicked.

Her first TEDx talk? She was nervous, and perhaps she forgot a word or a line, and her voice cracked during the emotional part. However, the audience gave her a two-minute standing ovation.

What Does This Mean for You?

If you're sitting there thinking you need to get better before you can speak... If you're waiting until you're "ready"...

If you think you need more practice, more confidence, or more experience...

You're missing the point entirely. The speakers who change lives aren't the ones with perfect delivery. They're the ones with something real to say – and the courage to say it imperfectly.

Debbie proved that. And so can you.
