Episode 1540
Monday, 22 December, 2025

What if your biggest growth bottleneck isn’t your strategy, your funnel, or your offer—but how you communicate your ideas?In this episode of BizNinja Entrepreneur Radio, Tyler Jorgenson welcomes longtime friend and world-class communicator Hannah Kim—a classically trained opera singer turned TEDx speaker, event curator, and founder of Purpose Speaking.Hannah shares her unconventional journey from music school to entrepreneurship, challenging the “starving artist” narrative and building a profitable, purpose-driven career around communication. Together, they explore why experience alone doesn’t make someone a great speaker, how rejection builds confidence, and why preparation—not talent—is the real antidote to stage fear.They also dive deep into the TEDx world: what organizers actually look for, why most applications fail, and how to structure an idea that solves a real problem. Hannah reveals practical tools—including pacing, presence, and reframing rejection—that anyone can use to instantly elevate their communication, whether on stage, on camera, or in business conversations.This episode is a masterclass in visibility, confidence, and turning your message into real-world impact.
