Mic Drop Workshop expands global women’s public speaking club to 33 cities with 1,500+ members, empowering women to build confidence, skills, and stage presence worldwide.
-- Mic Drop Workshop is pleased to announce that its signature program, Mic Drop Club, has expanded into 33 cities worldwide and now includes more than 1,500 members. As a leading platform for women in public speaking, this milestone reflects Mic Drop Workshop’s commitment to expanding opportunities, amplifying women’s voices, and fostering a global community of confident speakers.
Mic Drop Club is a women-only public speaking community offering monthly meetups, quarterly in-person gatherings, and structured learning designed to help participants build confidence, refine delivery, and grow as communicators. Members receive a month-by-month guided curriculum from lead trainer and international speaker, Lindsay Boccardo, they can practice opportunities in supportive settings, and access to virtual and in-person sessions that cater to a wide range of experience levels, from beginners to professionals.
“Being relatable doesn’t make you unreliable, it makes you a speaker that’s wired for connection,” says Jess Ekstrom, founder of Mic Drop Workshop, referencing her TEDx talk which has surpassed half a million views since its release earlier this year. “Mic Drop Club is about more than learning techniques; it’s about building a movement where women support women to own their stories and take the stage with confidence.”
At its core, the program is designed to address the stark imbalance in representation on stages worldwide, where women still occupy less than 30% of panel seats, roundtable spots, and keynote addresses. By offering a dedicated space for women to develop and practice, Mic Drop Club aims to close this gap and empower women to step forward as thought leaders, presenters, and changemakers.
Participants can join Mic Drop Club either virtually or in one of the local chapters spanning cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Houston, and Nashville. Membership is priced at $20 per month or $199 annually, with annual members receiving complimentary access to Mic Drop Workshop’s Dynamite Delivery course. Each month features a new speaking focus, ranging from mastering eye contact and stage presence to storytelling and vocal variety, culminating in a final showcase at year’s end.
Testimonials from current members highlight the program’s impact. “The opportunity to learn, apply and socialize with like-minded women in a safe welcoming space is game changing,” states Shinica Thomas, Commissioner and DEI Champion. Julia Korn, Forbes writer and executive coach, adds, “Whether you’re a professional speaker, someone who presents regularly at work, or simply someone who wants to learn, this club is for you.”
With more than 4,000 members across all its programs, Mic Drop Workshop continues to set the standard for women’s speaker training. From live bootcamps to online courses and now a global club model, the organization is committed to equipping women with the tools, networks, and opportunities they need to elevate their voices.
