Youth and College Speaking

Success: The Long and Winding Road

There is nothing more inspiring to me than being in front of an audience of students – both high school and college.  I leave with more energy than I could ever give.  Success: The Long and Winding Road allows me to share my story with young adults in order to educate, motivate and inspire.  It’s a story that includes receiving contacts, emails, letters and invitations to speak from around the world, having authored a bestselling book, rising to the top of a company and starting my own, even getting a Master’s degree in music education from one of the top music schools in the country though I had never read or played a note of music until the age of 21 – and here is the punch line – all after barely graduating from high school!  

What happened?  What was I not doing?  What caused the transformation?  How did I go from lazy to leader? What three main pieces of advice do I give students who are on the verge of designing the rest of their life?  Find out during this exciting, interactive talk that I hope to have with your high school or college students!
