If you’ve been listening to Inside The Greenroom for a while now, you know that your co-host, Blair Bryant Nichols has experience both on and off the stage, along with helping many of your favorite speakers get on their dream stages. It’s safe to say that he knows what it takes to make a great speaker. Often, Blair gets asked, “What’s your biggest tip before I go on stage?”. No matter the industry, speaker, gender, age, etc., his answer remains the same every time.

When you go on stage, you are giving a gift - the gift of YOU to the audience. This advice goes beyond your mindset...

In today’s episode of Inside The Greenroom, we have a powerful couple who understand that giving themselves as a gift to the world is not just great advice, but the core belief they operate from. Join us as we talk with Tom and Tonya Telesco, the founders of Telesco Leadership Group, about their career journeys. From failing and learning the secrets of success to their first meeting and starting a whole new journey together. 

Lifelong learning is what sets apart the ‘pretty good’ from the successful, and that is exactly the approach that Tom and Tonya take when it comes to your personal development. Tom discusses how he fought back against defeat and depression, realigned himself with the foundation of serving before leading, and how he uses this to help others find the message within themselves. You’ll learn why Tonya is so passionate about speakers and entrepreneurs pursuing their identities and purposes and how you can practically take steps to upgrade and expand your impact while also living the life of your dreams.
