Erin Weed, founder of The Dig® purpose method

I’m a keynote speaker and coach on authentic communication. I’ll help you find the one word that explains who you are and what you’re here to say. My word is AUTHENTIC.

So I’ll be real with you…my career started in 2001 after my sorority sister Shannon was murdered. For 12 years, I traveled the country speaking to over a million young women about personal safety and violence prevention.

Speaking wasn't something I learned. It’s something I lived.

After Girls Fight Back was acquired in 2013, I dedicated myself to helping other leaders do what I had done — find the talk only they can give and help them tap into the clarity and confidence to own it fully.

Using my signature method called The Dig, I’ve helped over 1,000 leaders craft speeches and build platforms that move people.

My secret? I don’t add to an already complex world. Instead, we’ll take everything away until only the one-word truth remains.

hi there, I’m ERIN.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

  • Testimonial

    “Erin empowered me to gain true clarity into what makes me special, unique, and powerful. Thank you for seeing me.  For helping me find my voice. For tearing down long-held beliefs that are untrue. Healing. Forgiving. For making me uncomfortable. And helping me reconcile that I. AM. ENOUGH.
