Wake Up! Traveling from good enough to great
If you liked the book, you’ll love the speech. You’ll laugh and cry and cheer with this adversity expert. Wake Up! is the inspirational keynote that will literally wake you up to becoming the best possible version of yourself. Success depends NOT on the events of our lives, but on the way we handle them.

Bounce: Define yourself
In the game of basketball the point guard brings the ball up the court and runs the offense. The point guard controls the pace of the game, sets up the plays and looks for opportunities to score. In life, you have to be the point guard. This speech, for high school and college students, points them in the direction of their dreams and helps them realize their potential to become champions.

Bounce: For girls only
A twist on the original Bounce speech that focuses on the “drama” all teenage girls face in school. As young women we shouldn’t define ourselves by what other people say about us, by the boys we’re dating, or by the size of our jeans. We define ourselves by our values and by our dreams. We are in charge of our future. This speech puts girls in charge of their direction and helps them realize their potential to become champions. 

Bullyproof: Becoming a champion
Going from 5’10 to 5’11 to 5’12 in seventh grade taught Wendy what it feels like not to fit in.  Through a series of funny stories, this speech, for middle school audiences, teaches kids to define themselves from the inside out.  In the same way that bullets bounced off Superman because he was bulletproof; words can bounce off students when they become bullyproof.  They will learn 5 rules that will help them become the champions of their lives.

Rebound: Recovering from adversity
Whether it’s a sexual assault or an eating disorder or domestic violence, sometimes adversity hits us so hard that we find ourselves surviving instead of thriving in life. This speech is designed for those who have felt like victims. It’s a heartfelt look at the challenges of moving forward after life has been unusually unfair.  A victim is something you might have been; it’s not something you need to be moving forward.  Rebound is a prescription for living a great life in the face of life changing adversity.

Workshops:

Define Your Destiny
A two to four hour workshop that helps participants design a roadmap for their future.  It helps define the Dreams, Vision, and Values we need to connect us to our potential.  It empowers participants to open doors and move forward in life with passion.

Chasing Feedback
Feedback is information.  It tells us what we look like from someone else’s point of view.  We need feedback if we want to reach our potential but we avoid constructive feedback like the plague.  This two hour workshop teaches participants how to chase feedback and what to do when they don’t like what they hear.

Legendary Service
Customer service is something most organizations DO.  Rarely does it become who they ARE.   Legendary Service isn’t for organizations that want to simply keep their existing customers; it’s for organizations that want to become the benchmark in their industry.  It follows a model that includes: Attitude, Aptitude, and Initiative.  It hinges on trust and empowerment and addresses both internal and external customers.  This four hour workshop will not only help you improve customer service, it will change your culture.
