Hi! I'm Taylor smith
I trained as a behavioral scientist and spent a decade building businesses. Now I run a global business development platform for women running digital companies, and I'm launching the first and largest study of this market.
My training is in why people trust and choose. My data is watching thousands of women do it.
As an international keynote speaker, I've spoken on 100+ stages & podcasts.
My talks are direct and specific. Nobody leaves with inspiration but lacking their next step. Some audiences need to understand a market they've been guessing about. Others need something they can act on this week. I lead both through my unique lens of human behavioral science, successful business, and working directly with female founders every day.
With a background in human behavioral science and nearly a decade in entrepreneurship, I specialize in positioning female founders & leaders to become the clear “yes” for stages, collaborations, and clients.
Explore My Speaking Topics
From sold-out conferences to multiple six-figure brand partnerships and a national speaking tour, my work has reached thousands of entrepreneurs and leaders building visible, credible, and profitable brands.
I don’t just teach visibility, I’ve built it. And I bring that real-world, proven experience into every room I step into.

How to Build Relationships That Lead to Collaborations, Referrals, and Revenue
keynote #1
The New Rules of The Female Founder Economy
Women aren't building companies the way we expect them to.
program bio
There's a standard story about how a woman builds a business online. Grow an audience, convert it to revenue, and the bigger both numbers get, the better she must be doing.
It's the story behind most of the advice, most of the funding decisions, and most of the assumptions people make when they look at a founder and decide how she's doing. It's also not how resilient woman-owned companies are actually building.
Your audience will walk away with the confidence, language, and perspective needed to understand the Female Founder Economy and respond with strategy in their own businesses, relationships, and beyond.
Key Takeaways for your audience:
→ The Five Capitals every female founder is building across
→ Why revenue and audience size are both unreliable reads on a business
→ Where opportunity actually originates in today's market, and why it's rarely public
→ How to audit which capitals your business is strong on and which are thin
Program Format:
Keynote (45 minutes)

Visibility Isn’t the Goal – Leadership Is
You cannot create the impact in the world you want to have if no one knows you exist.
program bio
Most founders believe visibility is a marketing strategy.
But in reality, it’s a leadership decision.
In this keynote, I challenge the idea that people aren’t ready—and instead reveal the real reason powerful leaders stay unseen: not a lack of skill, but a hesitation to fully step into visibility, vulnerability, and responsibility for their impact.
Through storytelling and real-world examples of how one year of intentional visibility led to exponential business growth, brand partnerships, and national opportunities, your audience will see how visibility directly shapes their influence and impact—and why the biggest shift isn’t learning how to be visible, but deciding to be.
This talk moves leaders out of overthinking and into action—helping them recognize the moment they’re in, release the internal blocks holding them back, and step forward as the person others are already looking for.
Key Takeaways for your audience:
→ Why visibility is not a tactic—but a leadership responsibility tied to your impact
→ The three internal blocks that keep leaders from being fully seen
→ How fear of rejection, judgment, and abandonment actually shows up at higher levels
→ The shift from dreaming and doing… into deciding
→ How to move from waiting to be invited to choosing to lead

The Credibility Stack: How Founder-Led Brands Build Authority, Trust & Opportunity Today
Your expertise matters, but without a credible personal brand that resonates, it’s easy to get lost in a crowded market. Learn how to amplify your influence and build a brand that makes people take notice.
program bio
We are no longer operating in an attention economy—we’re operating in a trust economy. And trust is not built randomly. It’s built intentionally, in layers.
In this talk, I introduce the Credibility Stack—my four-part framework that shows leaders how to build authority, attract clients and opportunities, and become the person people want to invite into rooms, stages, and collaborations.
Key Takeaways for your audience:
→ The four layers of the Credibility Stack: consistency, visibility, relationships, and association
→ Why most opportunities don’t come from applications—and what actually creates them
→ How to build authority signals that both people and AI recognize
→ How to move from inconsistent visibility to predictable opportunities
