Speaker, Coach, Author

You have a discerning audience and I have a compelling message.  That just sounds like a match made in heaven, doesn’t it?  But, how can you be sure?  We’ve all heard of, or worse yet personally experienced, a time when hopeful expectation gave way to utter disappointment.  The idea that you might just possibly hire a bland, boring, yawn-inducing Keynote Speaker is enough to plague your waking hours and rip you from a peaceful slumber in a cold sweat.  As a keynote speaker, I mastered the ability to own the biggest stages and connect with each member of even the largest audiences.  By sharing my story and message transparently and vulnerably, I create spaces where people feel seen and safe to open their minds and hearts to discover who they truly are and what they really want.  So, if you want to cross finding an epic keynote speaker off your to-do list and you want your attendees buzzing about the profound impact of their time at your event make the first move and I’ll take it from there.

The best athletes in the world all have something in common that significantly contributed to their success.  And, when I say the “best athletes”, I mean the Greatest of All Time legendary icons of their respective sports.  Let me be clear, no one thing is responsible for their rise to greatness; however, the fact that they each had an uncompromising standard for their coaches is notable to say the very least.  You are not as different from these GOATs as you may think.  You’re talented, dedicated, passionate and motivated, just like them.  But, I am willing to bet you identify with any or all of these too: insecure, intimidated, fragile, scared and unsure of yourself.  If that hit close to home and you’re feeling seen, wait ’til you get a load of this…you’re not alone.  I’ve found that these feelings are surprisingly common.  I’ve also learned that there’s a simpler, better, freer way to do it…and, by it, I mean live your life.  Today is the day and now is the time for you to find clarity, build confidence and embrace bold courageous action.  When you own your identity you’ll become the truest, best version of yourself.  Then, you’ll be able to accomplish the goals that you’ve only entertained briefly in your wildest imagination.  What are you waiting for?  Let’s get to work on unearthing who you are and unleash your unapologetic rebel.

One of the most powerful ways I inspire, motivate and create a positive change in people is by sharing my story.  My journey of self acceptance was a challenging road of obstacles, barriers and what turned out to be wrong turns.  Along the way, I learned a great deal about who I truly am, what I’m capable of and how I get to show up in this wild world.  I also discovered quite a bit about identifying my allies as well as my adversaries and, spoiler alert, they were not always readily apparent nor who I thought they would have been.  I’ve shared my pieces of my narrative consistently from stages, and online but I’ve long had the dream of sharing it, along with the many things I’ve learned, in its entirety.  Naturally, that dream becomes a reality in 2024.  The team is assembled, the process is in place and my book is taking shape.  If you are even a fraction as excited as I am then you are pretty darn excited.  I hope that you will join me on the journey by trusting me with your email below.
