Stop Sucking at Presentations | The Entrepreneurial Journey

Do you have a message you want to get out about your business, service, or product, but struggle to connect with people when you pitch it in a room? In this episode of The Entrepreneurial Journey Podcast, Dave sits down with Fern Chan, CEO and Founder of Fern Chan Ventures, to unpack what it really takes to stand out, be heard, and make people care. Fern has spent 15+ years helping leaders, entrepreneurs, and educators become the kind of speakers people cannot ignore, from stages at the United Nations to intimate mastermind rooms. Her philosophy is simple. If you create a real connection, people will remember you. This conversation dives into the realities of entrepreneurship, from walking away from a stable career to betting on yourself, navigating fear, and building a business around what people already come to you for. Fern breaks down why most presentations fail, how storytelling changes everything, and the simple shifts that can instantly make you more impactful in any room. From ditching bullet points to opening with something unexpected, the goal is not perfection; it's a connection. As a bonus for listeners, Fern is offering a free downloadable copy of her book, How to Not Suck at Presentations.
