Anna David Speaking Topics

Overcoming EPIC Failure to Achieve EPIC Goals

Failure can demolish us—or at least shatter our confidence. It can make us question our worthiness, second guess ourselves, and feel like we need to shoot a little bit lower next time.

However, to New York Times bestselling author Anna David, failure is the best thing that can happen. The host of the "Fail Your Way to Success" podcast, David has written about failure for Psychology Today and Entrepreneur. She believes that failure can be a sign that we haven't been shooting high enough.

In “Overcoming Epic Failure to Achieve Epic Goals,” David walks people through the failures of high-profile leaders, shares studies about the different impact failure can have on us, and asks audience members to look at their own struggles and successes. She then pushes them to come up with EPIC (Extraordinary, Powerful, Impactful, and Courageous) goals based on the lessons they’ve learned from their most epic failures.

Using wit, live journaling exercises, and unique stories—about topics as varied as meeting a goal 27 years after setting it and learning about manifestation from a pre-fame Matt Damon—David provides audiences with specific journaling exercises and actionable steps. Even better: every participant leaves with an EPIC Goal Workbook that already has their initial goals and actions mapped out.

Launching Your Legacy

Almost all business owners do financial planning around their legacy without realizing that a legacy isn't just the money they leave behind.

It's the sum total of their lives.

In Launching Your Legacy, David showcases entrepreneurs who have left or are in the process of leaving epic legacies before guiding participants through the process of figuring out their own.

Through discussion, writing, and sharing, they'll learn new tools for putting themselves out there and connecting their passions to their business. In the process, they'll discover how to use their understanding of their legacy to bring in more clients, attract more people to their cause, and—most importantly—transform how they think about themselves.

How to Boost Your Business by Sharing Your Story

For better or worse, if a potential client Googles you and nothing comes up, they’ll probably think, “On to the next.”

But you don't have to be pumping out TikTok videos or hiring expensive publicists to remain relevant. You just need to take certain simple steps to avoid being left in the dust.

After helping hundreds of business owners build their businesses by sharing their stories, New York Times bestselling author of eight books and TEDx speaker Anna David created a three-step story-sharing system that can transform your business—and life.

In "How to Boost Your Business By Sharing Your Story," David guides you through her unique process. This includes determining your WHO-WHAT-WHY, conducting a competitive analysis of the marketplace, and determining the ideal media approach. Thus, you can leave with the exact steps you need to share your story with the world.

How to Publish a Book

Data shows that entrepreneurs who have written and published a book on their business subject are twice as likely to win new business.

In other words, if you’re a business owner, publishing a book is probably the best way possible to build your authority and dominate your field.

New York Times bestselling author of eight books, Anna David, has helped hundreds of entrepreneurs publish authority-building books. She’ll provide a walk-through of how book publishing works today, from coming up with the right book idea to hiring editors, creating a professional cover, getting your book distributed, and using it to grow your business.
