Learn from and with the best.

Kymberlee Weil is driven by a deep passion for the art of speaking and storytelling. With the privilege of coaching over 500 speakers internationally and gaining years of experience, she was fortunate to refine public communication skills and shape meaningful messages that drive real change.

Her journey begins at the prestigious TED conference, where she spent 13 transformative years. She had the honor of not only immersing herself in life-changing ideas, live, every year, but she was also invited to speak at TED University and the TED Summit as well as having the opportunity to organize TEDx events and coach TED and TEDx speakers. Her focus has always been on discovering the core ideas within individuals and crafting messages the world truly needs, using the powerful tools of storytelling, structure and staging.

You are your story. Your business needs you to own it, tell it and grow. Together, our collection of stories makes our community. The more connected we are in our stories, the stronger our community and the greater impact we have in business.

Kymberlee’s passion for teaching and inspiring others has led her around the world as an influential speaker. She is deeply grateful for the opportunity to connect with audiences and share her distinctive blend of storytelling, spontaneity and strategy.
