What exactly is a transformational speaker? What do they do? And why would anyone consider hiring one? Let me tell you.

A transformational or inspirational speaker gives a speech in front of an audience to motivate or inspire them into action.

Transformational or inspirational speakers engage mentally and emotionally with their audience to help them make personal or professional changes in their lives. They help their audience shift and focus on opportunities and solutions.

Many speakers relate their own personal experience to their audience. Equipped with varied backgrounds, abilities, and personalities they offer it all to inspire others. Regularly reflecting on their own lives, they understand what can be helpful and relatable to their audiences or clients.

I was born with Cerebral Palsy, or CP. Cerebral palsy is a term used to describe a group of symptoms affecting body movement and muscle coordination resulting from damage to the developing brain. The way CP affects everyone varies widely from person to person depending on where the brain was damaged.

Refusing to let it be a deterrent, CP has been a huge motivator in my life. It’s been a catalyst for me to step up, have influence, and embrace a life filled with success and happiness. It has helped me to inspire others by leading by example.

With each accomplishment, I have strived for the next level. My goal is to empower others to be the best version of themselves and to serve as a catalyst for moving the world together.

As the #1 best-selling author of The Joy of Obstacles, and recent keynote speaker at The New Success Revolution Leadership Conference, I transformed an international audience with my passion and authenticity. By sharing my story, I aim to motivate and inspire you and others to see life as a profound gift no matter what challenges it holds.
