In this episode, Paul is joined by Kelly Stoetzel, curator, creative producer, and former Head of Conferences at TED. Kelly shares her journey from the art world to shaping some of the world’s most influential idea-driven stages, and how powerful ideas are discovered, refined, and brought to life.

The conversation explores idea curation, storytelling, speaker development, and what makes a message truly resonate with an audience. Drawing on nearly two decades at TED and her current work leading the TEDxGlobal Idea Search, Kelly offers a practical and thoughtful lens on turning raw insight into memorable impact.

This episode is a grounded look at how creativity, clarity, and thoughtful curation help ideas travel further and matter more.
