Anastasia Lipske ~ Speaker/Podcast Bkg Agent and Consultant
Anastasia Lipske is the founder of Access Speakers, a boutique podcast booking and consulting agency built on one simple belief: relationships outperform transactions. That philosophy has helped the agency earn an exceptional host acceptance rate of nearly 72%—proof that thoughtful, personalized outreach consistently outperforms mass marketing.
Since founding Access Speakers, Anastasia has personally secured more than 1,900 speaking engagements and podcast interviews for her clients. (Not including the bookings her team has secured.) While the agency’s roots are in the speaking industry, its primary focus today is helping authors, entrepreneurs, speakers, nonprofit leaders, and subject-matter experts strategically leverage podcast guesting to increase visibility, build influence, grow their businesses, and create more speaking opportunities.
At Access Speakers, you won’t hear the word “pitch.” We believe relationships open doors that transactions never will. Every guest proposal begins with the same priority: listeners first, hosts second, guests third. By putting audiences first and respecting each host’s unique platform, Access Speakers consistently connects clients with podcasts where they’re not only welcomed—but where they truly belong.
As a speaker, podcast guest, and consultant, Anastasia is passionate about helping audiences rethink visibility, influence, and the power of relationship-first marketing.
She encourages business owners to use their voice with intention…whether from a stage or behind a microphone…to build trust, expand their reach, and create opportunities that no marketing funnel can replicate. Her practical strategies, refreshing perspective, and genuine passion for helping others make her a sought-after guest for podcasts, conferences, and events alike.
When she’s not helping clients amplify their message, you’ll likely find her on her family’s 35-acre Oregon farm collecting eggs from more than 1,000 free-range hens, wrangling goats and geese, or simply marveling at God’s creation while watching her granddaughters grow.

Rave Reviews:
“A fabulous speaker for our Forbes Business Council Speaker Group! Anastasia delivers the goods! The tips! The helpful direction! And the repeated “OMG, I never thought of that” from our audience. It felt like every sentence was a teachable moment.”
~ Bobbie Carlton, Innovation Women/Carlton PR & Marketing | Forbes Biz Council Chair, Publisher, Founder, and Speaker
“Anastasia is one of the best podcast guests I’ve had the pleasure of having on my show, Your Business Story. She also added intense value to me before our interview with helpful advice as I was starting my first podcast featuring guests. I can’t recommend her enough! If you need someone to help you get on the right shows without you having to invest a ton more time in increasing your visibility, talk to Anastasia. You won’t be sorry you did!”
~ Kristin N. Spencer, Literary Symmetry | Ghostwriter, Copywriter, Business Messaging Expert, and Podcast Host (Your Business Story)
“Anastasia was one of THE BEST podcast guests I have ever had! Her information on speaking and marketing was so worthwhile and valuable that even I am going to listen to her podcast again – and I was the interviewer! This woman’s ability to share “must-have” knowledge is golden! I would recommend her without question – and am going to hire her for some help!”
~ Nan McKay | Author, Speaker, Advisor to Women 60+, YouTube Advisor, and Podcast Host (TrailBlazers Impact Interviews)
“Anastasia Lipske is a phenomenal podcasting guest. We’ve worked together for many years through her exceptional full-service speaker and podcast guesting agency, Access Speakers. Anastasia has a vast knowledge of speaking and podcasting and how you can use these tools to scale and grow your business. She shared invaluable tips and wisdom that our Savvy audience could put into practice immediately to grow their business. THANK YOU, Anastasia!”
~ Christina Rivera, Savvy Broadcasting | Podcast Host (Savvy Business, Life Unscripted)
“Anastasia Lipske is a wonderful live show guest! She joined my #GoalChatLive (aka The DEB Show podcast) conversation about Getting Interviewed and generously shared her background and experience, as well as lots of helpful tips. Anastasia speaks with energy, grace, and heart. She came well-prepared – listened to the episode to discover her pre- and post-interview recs – and shared thoughtful advice for anyone looking to stand out via media interviews. Thanks, Anastasia. It was a pleasure having you on the panel. You are welcome back to The DEB Show anytime!”
~ Debra Eckerling, The D*E*B Method | Goal-Setting Strategist, Author, Speaker, and Podcast Host (GoalChat)
“Looking for someone to provide insight and tips for how to get more speaking engagements and how to be a better speaker? Anastasia has you covered! She was a guest on our show and provided a ton of great insight.”
~ John Hinson, Spotlight Branding | Author, Marketing Professional, Podcast Host (Center Stage)
“Anastasia is a powerhouse! She’s direct, powerful, and amazingly knowledgeable in her field. She created AHA moments in me that have lasted for years. Bringing her on your stage guarantees that those in the audience will walk away with immediately implementable nuggets.”
~ Mitchell Levy, Credibility Nation | Global Credibility Expert, Author, and Speaker
“Anastasia was interviewed for my podcast Biz Help for You and she was a delight to have as a guest. Not only does she have great information to share to help speakers learn how to get booked on stage and podcasts, but she has a very engaging personality and the conversation flowed effortlessly. I’d be happy to have her as a guest again in the future!”
~ Candy Messer, AB&P | Profitability and Growth Advisor, Author, Speaker, and Podcast Host (Biz Help for You)
“Anastasia is a treasure trove of information on how to present yourself and how to get booked as a speaker or on a podcast. Listening to her present, I was taking notes so fast I could hardly keep up, and now I have a list of action items to start my new year. I especially loved her lesser-known tips for how to get compensated when people don’t have a budget. For example, organizations have materials budgets that are separate from their speaker budgets: Because I am an author, I can ask if they might buy a book for every attendee. To me, that’s a win-win–profit from book sales and more importantly getting a concrete reminder of my talk into people’s hands.”
~ Elisabeth Stitt, Joyful Parenting | Parenting Coach, Author, and Speaker
“I am excited to recommend Anastasia. Anastasia was a guest on my LinkedIn Live Stream & just hit it out of the park. Anastasia was a great contributor to the panel & provided some very valuable takeaways to the audience. Anastasia is a great communicator as to be very relevant to the conversation. Definitely having Anastasia back. 5 stars!”
~ Donald Cohen, Co-Host, (Women’s Empowerment Show)
