In The Room - The Official National Speakers Association of Southern California Podcast

In The Room is where the National Speakers Association of Southern California pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to build a speaking career worth having.Every episode puts you inside the conversations that happen when serious speakers get together — the wins they didn't post about, the pivots that changed everything, and the craft they've spent years refining. You'll hear from NSA SoCal members sharing real milestones, board leaders talking about the chapter they're building, and guest speakers in the lead-up to our events so you know exactly who's walking through the door and why they're worth your time.We also go deep with the voices behind NSA SoCal's signature experiences — Last Story Standing, Demo Reel Day, and more — because the stories that happen around those stages are just as worth hearing as the ones told on them.Whether you're a working professional speaker, an emerging voice figuring out your next move, or some
