Cathlyn Melvin is a TedX Coach & Copywriter who helps mission-driven experts design and deliver their world-changing messages through TEDx coaching and done-for-you copywriting services. If you’ve ever dreamt of becoming a TEDx speaker, Cathlyn provides incredible insights and tips for how to do it, so definitely listen into our conversation.
After getting her degree in theater, Cathlyn worked for over a decade as an actor and director when she launched her first business as a copywriter. After delivering a TEDx talk, she found herself being sought by other aspiring TEDx speakers wanting her to help them do the same. That led her to what she does today in her business, Cat Right Creative, offering both copywriting and TedX coaching.
With little information available on how to not only apply but also get accepted to become a TEDx speaker, Cathlyn is a rare and valuable resource helping business owners successfully land TEDx speaking gigs. She’s been through the process and knows the ins and outs of what makes a good application and what TEDx is looking for.
Looking back, the skills that Cathlyn used as an actor are the same ones she leverages as a copywriter and TEDx coach. Her ability to put herself in someone else’s shoes, take on other people’s voices, and be a conduit for telling other people’s stories are what have helped guide her in her business.
Cathlyn shares that while becoming a TEDx speaker will likely not make you the next Brene Brown, doing so can bring you exposure and build connections that open up new opportunities. That said, she emphasizes that to be successful getting onto the TEDx stage, it’s important to understand and respect the TEDx brand and what their mission is, which is having an idea worth spreading.
If you’ve ever wanted to be featured on the TEDx stage, Cathlyn gives some great insights and tips to help you prepare. If you want personalized coaching, Cathlyn offers not only one-on-one coaching services, but in January of 2023, she’ll also be launching a group coaching program.
