In this episode, we’re honored to host Tricia Brouk, a renowned director, producer, and public speaking coach, and author whose work is transforming how leaders and change-makers connect with their audiences. If you’re ready to overcome limiting beliefs, find your voice, and make a meaningful impact, this conversation is for you.
Amplifying Voices and Creating Impact with Tricia Brouk
Tricia’s story is one of resilience, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to impact. From her beginnings as a professional dancer performing at iconic venues like the Paris Opera and Lincoln Center, to becoming a director and choreographer, and eventually founding the Big Talk Academy, Tricia has spent her life helping others find and amplify their voices.
Breaking Through Fear to Serve Others
One of the most powerful insights Tricia shared in our conversation is her perspective on fear. “Fear is not about you,” she says. “It’s about the people who need to hear your message.” She encourages leaders to move beyond ego and step into a space of service. By focusing on the needs of your audience rather than your own insecurities, you can transform fear into an opportunity to create connection and impact.
Creating Safe Spaces for Growth
As a director and coach, Tricia emphasizes the importance of creating safe environments where people can take risks and explore their potential. Whether working with actors, speakers, or her own team, she knows that trust is the foundation for authentic expression. “My job is to remove any ego and show up in service of my team,” she explains.
Active Listening and Uncovering the Big Idea
Another highlight of our conversation was Tricia’s unique approach to active listening. Through deep conversations with her clients, she helps them uncover the true essence of their message—often something they didn’t realize they wanted to say. For example, one speaker thought her talk was about a rare eye disease, but through active listening, Tricia helped her realize the talk was really about learning to see the world through her children’s eyes.
Commanding a Room with Confidence
For those looking to hone their public speaking skills, Tricia offers practical advice on commanding any room with confidence and humility. “Receive the gift of your audience before you give them yours,” she advises. By taking a moment to connect with the people in front of you, you create a powerful exchange that enhances your presence and impact.
Building a Legacy Through Communication
At the heart of Tricia’s work is a belief in the power of communication to unite humanity. Whether helping speakers take the TEDx stage or coaching leaders to inspire their teams, her mission is clear: to amplify voices and create lasting change.
