Speaking Podcast

The Speaking Podcast has evolved. What began as a show for speakers and coaches looking to start or sharpen their skills has grown into something broader and more relevant than ever — real conversations for real people navigating everyday life. Each episode features genuine, unscripted conversations with guests who bring practical insight, inspiring stories, and ideas you can actually apply — whether you're building a business, developing yourself, or simply looking for a fresh perspective on life. No scripts. No question lists. Just honest conversation worth eavesdropping on. Hosted by Roy Coughlan — DTM, podcaster, coach, and the Podfather — from Łódź, Poland.
