Let’s find out whether it’s ready for TEDx.

A compelling TEDx talk starts with a clear, original idea and a strong understanding of how TEDx events choose speakers.

This free guide will help you sharpen your idea, assess your readiness, research the right events, and prepare to communicate what makes your idea worth hearing.

I’m Corean Canty, a two-time TEDx speaker and speaker coach for TEDxBuckheadAve. I’ve also privately coached aspiring speakers through idea development, applications, and auditions. Several went on to be selected, and one talk I coached was later recognized as an Editor’s Pick.

I created this guide to help you understand what the TEDx process really requires before you start applying.

Download the guide and learn how to:

Turn a broad topic or personal story into one clear idea

Test your idea using the “Why this, why you, why now?” framework

Research events and identify the ones that fit your work

Strengthen your application and one-minute pitch

Assess your readiness with a practical scorecard

Think strategically about what happens beyond the red dot
