On Air, On Point: How to Show Up Powerfully on Radio, TV & Podcasts

💡 About the Workshop

You’ve mastered your craft. You’ve built your expertise.
Now it’s time to make sure the world can see and hear it.

Over the past two decades, I’ve interviewed thousands of entrepreneurs, leaders, and changemakers — and one thing is clear: in today’s media landscape, opportunities to share your story are everywhere. From radio interviews and podcasts to TV panels and livestreams, visibility is no longer the issue — impact is. How you show up in those moments determines whether you’re simply seen once or remembered as a voice that matters.

In this highly interactive session, broadcaster and visibility strategist Merisha Stevenson (BBC Radio, Media Impact Lab) will guide you through the essentials of becoming media-ready — confident, credible, and authentic on-air.

You’ll walk away knowing how to make your voice work for you and how to really prepare for your moment in the media spotlight - whether you’re speaking to thousands through a mic, addressing a room from the stage or pitching your next big idea on camera.

You’ll Learn How To:

• Actually prepare for media interviews & speaking opportunities (and it's not asking for a copy of the questions)
• Communicate with clarity and confidence in interviews, podcasts, and panels
• Craft your on-air story — the message behind your message
• Manage nerves and find your authentic voice on mic or camera
• Understand what producers and hosts are really looking for
• Respond to tricky questions without losing your flow
• Turn every media opportunity into long-term visibility, brand value & profit
