Mark your calendar for October 11, 2025, because Drop The Mic Night is back—and this time, it’s all about COMMUNITY! This highly anticipated event will bring together ten aspiring speakers, each stepping onto the stage to share their unique, heartfelt take on the theme. This year, LiveGirl is the proud nonprofit partner for Drop the Mic, hosted by SPEAC Success.

About the Event:

After years of coaching aspiring speakers, SPEAC Success Founder, Shannon, noticed a recurring theme: people craved more opportunities to step onto a stage and put their newfound skills and confidence to the test. That’s where the idea for Drop The Mic Night was born.

Shannon created this platform to offer aspiring speakers a safe space to share their stories, build their confidence and take their first steps toward their speaking goals - whether that’s engaging local audiences or dreaming of larger stages.

Speakers selected for Drop The Mic Night participate for free, and receive complimentary coaching and feedback to help them shine. This event is about nurturing talent, fostering growth and providing the support needed to kickstart their speaking journey in a welcoming and supportive environment.

Ten aspiring speakers will take the stage for this one-of-a-kind celebration of voices, stories, and community. Expect an evening full of laughter, inspiration, and maybe even a few happy tears as these storytellers drop the mic with performances that will stay with you long after the night is over.
