WOMEN ON STAGE is a 10-week, online course and group coaching program to take you from dreaming about giving an influential, culture-changing talk to delivering one on stage. Tabby has helped hundreds of women find their voice, craft their talk, and prepare to deliver their message to the world.
For Years I had a dream of Becoming a TEDx Speaker
And I went through many stages with that dream:
Feeling not ready, but sure it would happen “some day”
Overwhelmed and unsure of where to start
Second-guessing my message, even though I felt called to speak
Watching other friends give their talk, and then contending with my own feelings as their careers took off
Afraid if I tried, I would just spin my wheels and not get anywhere
Frustrated that I couldn’t get the whole of my message into 18 minutes or less
Until I finally decided enough was enough.
It was time to stop playing small.
“Before I took Tabby’s course, I was frustrated with not having my voice heard or respected to the degree I desired. In working with Tabby, I gained a deeper purpose and self-confidence with my voice and my message. Now that I have spoken on the TEDx stage, I have more leverage. I’ve also grown a powerful network of influential women to keep my momentum going."
— Dr. Sarita Jackson, TEDxDelthorneWomen
“I can’t say enough positive things about the amazing Tabby Biddle who coached me on my TEDx talk. She has a gift and ability to both support your mission and help you to be in a place that is empowering and authentic when you walk out on that stage. As a result of working with Tabby, I now feel empowered in my femaleness and that my idea is important and valuable to the world!”
- Julia Huffman, TEDxFargo
One of my superpowers is helping women gain clarity, confidence and courage to be seen and heard.

Tabby gave me the confidence to take risks and really be myself on stage. To date, my talk has more than 450,000 views and more than 450 supportive, positive comments.”
- Keely Herron, TEDxJacksonHole

Does participating in this course guarantee a spot as a TEDx speaker?
Participating in this course can accelerate your path to the TEDx stage, however it does not guarantee a spot. It is up to each TEDx organizer to determine their final selection of speakers. This course is not affiliated with TED or TEDx. It is an independent program.
I'd like to do this program, but don't have the financial means. Are there any scholarships being offered?
We understand that the program fee is not within every participant’s budget. For this reason, WOMEN ON STAGE awards a limited number of full and partial scholarships to deserving women within this group of female changemakers. If you’d like to apply for a scholarship, please contact Tabby to receive a scholarship application.
I’m considering the VIP Add-On option. But I am not sure. Can I start the course and make a decision mid-stream?
Tabby offers a limited number of VIP spots for this program and reserves the time in her calendar before the start of the course. For this reason, it is necessary to purchase the VIP Add-On option when you enroll in the course to guarantee your time.
“Working with Tabby was such a gift. It’s only because of her I was able to formulate my Big Idea, and navigate the overwhelming process of both writing a TEDx talk AND applying to and getting accepted into a TEDxWomen event!”
