I have been on the When Story stage twice and both times have truly been life changing. Having the ability to be trained for 6 weeks not only on how to make a talk that stays in authenticity but builds authority and intrigue, but also on stage presence and confidence is huge.
The When Story stage has also given me numerous new clients and has done a significant job in assisting me in booking other speaking engagements!
I would highly recommend using Wendy to jump start your speaking career or gain true uthority and momentum as a seasoned speaker.
Sharing my When Story was one of the best experiences of my life. Yes it was scary, but the collaborative environment of other people working toward the same goal and the amazing coaching support meant I was ready to take the stage. Afterwards, there continues to be this incredible collaborative community that wants to see YOU succeed. Take the leap. You will be glad you did.

What an amazing experience to be coached to share such a powerful moment in my life. I worked with When Story Facilitators, Sharon Slack and Michelle Vande Hey, who were trained by Wendy. The amount of value I have received from this whole experience from the talk to the books to the podcast and the Youtube video - this is an AMAZING opportunity that has helped me grow my business (Trina A. Grimm Holistic Coaching) leaps and bounds.
Just being around the community and culture Wendy has created has truly been refreshing - women supporting women without judgement. If you have been on the fence about this opportunity or anything else similar to this - I HIGHLY recommend you connect with Wendy and have a conversation with her.

Wendy Babcock is redefining what it means to amplify women’s voices. Through her visionary platform, WHEN Stories, she’s created more than a speaking event — she’s built a movement.
Every element of the experience — from preparation to promotion to the main stage — reflects Wendy’s deep commitment to helping women rise. Her mentorship is rooted in real-world wisdom. She doesn’t just talk the talk — she walks it with transparency, heart, and strategy. She openly shares her own lessons (the hard ones included) so her speakers can grow without falling into the same traps.
Whether you're brand new to the stage or looking to expand your reach and visibility, Wendy creates an environment where you're not just heard — you’re launched. Her support is practical, empowering, and deeply human.
If you’re ready to tell your story and open new doors in the process, working with Wendy through WHEN Stories is one of the smartest and most aligned moves you can make.

This was one of the best experiences of my life. The coaching leading up to giving our talk, the event day, the book and podcast after the talk have all been great experiences. Yes, my Visibility has grown AND so have I! WHEN Stories is such a unique transformational experience. More than I was expecting.
