QLC 036: How to Speak with Influence with Tamryn Sherriffs

Today I’m excited to welcome Tamryn Sherriffs to The Quarter Life Comeback podcast.

Tamryn Sherriffs is an entrepreneur, teacher, life-long learner and an expert on communication who helps teams and individuals speak with more influence.

I first met Tamryn while working on the TEDxCapeTown organising committee where she was my team leader on the speaker portfolio. I’m now happy to call Tamryn a friend and always look forward to hearing her entrepreneurial insights on things. It seems like she’s always launching some new project!

Aside from her entrepreneurial awesomeness, Tamryn also went through a roller coaster ride in her twenties, trying out several different jobs before learning how to know what to pursue (which we cover in the interview).

Tamryn’s latest project is taking the content she’s previously only ever taught in her workshops and packaging it into an online product that anyone can access to improve their communication skills.
