Program Description
Never let your attitude become a disability. As a youth motivational speaker and author, I host programs to help transform fear and ignorance into kindness, respect, and admiration for those who strive to rise above adversity. As a former special needs child with a disability, I share captivating anecdotes that have enabled me to triumph over cerebral palsy. These stories elicit emotions that help my audiences find the courage to fully accept and navigate life's challenges, motivating them to achieve beyond what others believe they can do. Each program includes a video (e.g., skydiving, scuba diving, etc.) and student Q&A. My new book is a resource to help teens, parents, and special needs kids overcome anxiety and self-doubt when faced with bullying, disability, or other adversity. Each chapter is filled with stories that encourage readers to develop a positive mindset, build confidence, and celebrate their uniqueness.
