Is Your Idea Worth Spreading? | My TEDx Experience | EP169

Is your idea worth spreading?After completing my first TEDx talk, Desiree and I sat down to talk about what the experience REALLY required from me—and surprisingly, this conversation became about much more than standing on a TEDx stage.I battled fear. I procrastinated. Imposter syndrome had me wondering if they had chosen the wrong person. And somewhere in the process, I had to stop focusing on delivering the talk “right” and actually build a relationship with the idea I had been given.That's when everything shifted.My original idea was simple: Life could be much more simple if you just ask. But through the TEDx process, I discovered the deeper idea underneath it: safe spaces don't start with answers, they start with questions.In this episode, we're talking about what it takes to discover the idea inside of you, trust that what you're carrying has value, prepare in a way that works for YOU, and move forward even when fear is telling you that you're not ready.Because maybe your TEDx stage isn't actually TEDx.Maybe it's a podcast. A book. A business. A song. A ministry. A conversation. An idea you've been sitting on because you haven't convinced yourself that it's important enough yet.What if it is?Your idea was given to you for a reason. It's time to stop sleeping on it and start spreading it.Life could be much more simple if you just ask.Jess Ask The Podcast is the safe space where transparency meets transformation. Host Jessica S.
