All great speeches are structured around great stories.

As an experienced small business owner and Executive Producer of America’s most lauded Small Business TV show “Making It!” I do have stories to share with members of your group! “Stories are data with a soul” according to TED speaker Brené Brown.

On the Emmy-winning TV show, we interviewed over 1000 business owners and I happily share the wisdom that I learned from those amazing people. For example; The story of a woman who launched a personnel business from a folding table with no employees and has grown it to a billion-dollar international enterprise with over a thousand employees. How about the 12-year old boy who thought the allowance from his parents wasn’t large enough…..so he started a printing business to earn extra income. I’d like to bring their inspiration into a room where you are.

I have had the pleasure of speaking to companies large and small: Including Union Bank, Southern California Edison, Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses classes, Anheuser-Busch
and various Small Business Associations. My message is strong and consistent: Own your destiny; make your business work for you as much as you work for it!

Yes, I’m deeply connected to entrepreneurs and all people who dream of business ownership. It is a passionate connection!
