Neuroinclusive Entrepreneurship: Turning Passion Into Profit – Speak
August 25 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
This 3-part workshop series is designed specifically with neurodivergence in mind and explores how to turn your interests and vision into a viable business idea.
Part 3, Speak, delves into communicating and pitching your business ideas with confidence using clarity, structure, and storytelling.
Speak teaches you how to combine your lived experience, business model, and authentic voice. Through our PIVOTS Framework – Problem, Impact, Value, Outcome, Trajectory, Story – we’ll help you draft a pitch you actually want to deliver. Expect guided prompts, scripts, visual tone cues, and lots of feedback. Leave with a pitch you believe in!
