Hey, what's up, my friend, Graham Baldwin here. Welcome back to the Speaker Lab podcast. Today we have a

great guest for you. We have Pamela Slim who is joining us. Pamela Slim is a very successful coach and author and speaker. And as I say in a minute here, all around great gal. So I'm really honored to have Pamela join us today. She's extremely smart when it comes to all things speaking and building a personal brand.

And so she has some great insights to share with us today. Today we're going to be talking a lot

about the topic of IP or intellectual property and licensing that. So I get a lot of questions

from speakers like, hey, there's some company or organization or business or group that wants

And so she gives us some great insights on what to do about that, on how to protect your IP, on how to market your IP, how to price your IP, how to leverage all of that. So there's a lot of different ways that you can do that. And so she breaks it all down for us today. So I think you're going to get a lot from today's episode. Let's get right into it.

I know, I know. I'm very bitter.

So whatever.

And so it's one of those like I was looking through the list of people we've had on the summit who haven't actually been on the podcast. I was like, we've got a bunch of people we've got to go back to, I guess now. So good to have you here now. So before we get into what we're going to be covering, just to familiarize yourself with everyone,

what, why don't you give us a quick snapshot on especially what you speak about and how speaking fits into your business?

So I'm an author, speaker and business coach and real estate owners.
