Helping people find Their Voice and tell Their Story
Jay Olstad
Hey folks,
Never before in human history has it been easier to say something—yet harder to be heard. The world is noisy, attention is scarce, and breaking through takes more than information. That’s where I can help. You can’t influence anyone if you don’t know how to tell a story. I coach people to do exactly that—so they grab attention and get results.
As a seven-time Emmy Award–winning television journalist and brand storyteller with 25 years of experience, I share insider, research-based principles that help you connect the moment you start speaking, presenting, or hitting “send.” I’ve worked with everyone from small agencies to Fortune 5 companies, teaching one core truth: if you want people to do something, you have to make them feel something first. That’s what makes them choose you, your product, or your idea. Because people don’t want to be sold something—they want to be told something.
Audiences consistently rank me as one of their most impactful speakers, and attendees leave with actionable advice they can use - not some day - but the same day.

“I highly recommend him.”
