Friends and Family – I am incredibly excited to share the biggest news of my speaking career!!!!!!! I was inducted into the Speaker Hall of Fame!!!!!!
After 20+ years as a professional speaker, this means so much to me! I remember going to my first National Speakers Association Hall of Fame gala over 20(!) years ago. I was in awe of the amazing speakers on the big stage. Back then, I never imagined I’d deliver over 3,000 keynote presentations around the world, speak in all 50 US states by age 30, win American Airlines Road Warrior of the year (LOL), and earn a place in the Speaker Hall of Fame. I would not have penciled that path, nor would I have changed any of the challenges, breakthroughs, and adventures.
And what an adventure it has been! From sleeping on a floor at age 18 surrounded by 5,000 self-printed books to launching a global research firm and then receiving our industry’s highest honor while my daughter Rya and my wife Denise cheered!!!!!
Each of YOU has helped me on this journey. I am grateful. What an adventure it has been. I am thankful to be on it with YOU!! I hope to speak at an event for you in the future!

With gratitude,

Candidly, I have missed the energy, excitement, laughter, and learning of a full convention center ballroom. This event was the first large ballroom keynote I’ve delivered since March 20, 2020. I was incredibly inspired to share my message about unlocking the potential of every generation…
Without question, the pandemic has put a new lens on how Gen Z thinks about their future, from education and living arrangements to work and personal finances. One key first step for Gen Z will be navigating their entry into the workforce as they seek to expand their independence as emerging adults and trendsetters.
Working with Adobe Workfront on such a timely and important study was incredibly exciting—and so were the many discoveries we uncovered! It’s rare to see such a big shift in participant responses in only twelve months.
One of the biggest takeaways from TikTok and “Style Tribes” is that it all speaks to something much deeper than the latest trends in fashion: it is the desire to belong, and TikTok makes that happen.
