Helping dads 10x their grit so they can grow it in their kids | Dad of 4 with dwarfism | Motivational Speaker | Software Engineer Turned Product Manager | Overcoming odds | Inspiring the world.

👋 Hi, my name is Kris. 

I am 4’5’’ tall, and was born with dwarfism.

Doctors told my parents I would never make it.

After I survived, doctors then told my mom to place me into an institution because I’d never walk, talk, or live a “normal” life.

As you are figuring out, it didn’t turn out that way.

“Challenge accepted” has been my mantra.

So has a faith in God and His ability to help me through anything.

That has led me to …

→ Recovering from 20+ surgeries all under the age of 20
→ Graduating high school in 2001
→ Going to college
→ Teaching myself how to design, code and media production
→ Starting multiple small businesses
→ Building a career in tech as a developer and now a product manager
→ Getting married
→ Having 4 kids, 2 with dwarfism

Maybe the doctors were right about one thing, after all.

My life is far from “normal”.

And I am 💯 percent here for it.

You might say I have quite the story.

So do you.

That’s why earlier this year I decided to start sharing my story via #linkedin, one-on-one conversations, and public speaking.

Not for my own gain, but to inspire you to face and share your own stories.

Because that’s the first step to building self-confidence and the life you want.

If you like what you’re reading, be sure to follow and even drop me a DM.

Hope this encourages you to push through whatever you are facing right now.

Adding Sparkle to Your Speeches | I help CEOs and Speakers develop and deliver compelling speeches | Public Speaking Coach & Consultant | Public Speaking Workshops | Speaker | Entrepreneur

Hi, I’m Eva Daniel, and I help the best speakers get even better.

For two decades, I worked behind the scenes with some of the world's most recognizable voices—from bestselling authors to public figures—shaping their content and writing speeches that reached millions. I know the universal truth: even the experts need an expert.

My Mission: To turn your powerful expertise into a signature talk that commands attention, gets standing ovations, and keeps event planners calling back.

I’m a Top 20 Communication Expert (according to Favikon), and I work with professional speakers, CEOs, founders, and public leaders through a few key ways:

1:1 Coaching: Intensive, personalized sessions to craft and refine your next world-class speech.

Team Training: On-site workshops to elevate the communication and presentation skills of your entire organization.

Keynote Speaking: Delivering high-impact talks on communication mastery and influence.

The Speak Shop Membership: Access to my premium resources and community for ongoing message refinement.

Signature Talk Strategy: A talk that stands out in a crowded market.

Sharper Message Clarity: Ideas that hit with precision.

P.S. Here are what two of my clients have said:

“Eva helped me and The Ramsey Personalities with talks for several years while on our team. She is smart, energetic, creative, and fun to work with developing world-class communication!” - Dave Ramsey-

“Eva’s the real deal. Honest and sharp with her feedback. If you're on the fence about working with her because you already think you're good. Trust me, she'll make you better.” - Jefferson Fisher-

2026 could be your year to get paid to speak or to raise your speaking rates. 

But what should YOU charge? 

I’ve worked for speakers who charge $0 (it's not about the money for them). 

I've worked with speakers who charge $10,000. 

I've worked with speakers who charge over $250,000 per talk.

But there are some baseline numbers to consider when it comes to pricing.

That's what this carousel is all about. 

A lot of people want to make a lot of money to speak, but a lot won't. 

Not only do you have to have an "it" factor on stage but you also need to be a thought leader who shapes the culture.

You don’t make a lot of money to speak without doing this. There is no shortcut.

Some are prolific writers.

Some have led teams for decades.

Some have led countries through wars.

They have changed cultures because of who they are and what they’ve accomplished.

They spent their time not pursuing a podium but in pursuing changing the world and making it a better place. They worked deeply with passion.

Speaking was the bi-product not the goal. They set out to change culture and when they did they were asked to speak.

A couple caveats:
-These are USA numbers based on speaking in corporate settings.

-I am NOT an agent. I do not book speakers. This carousel is based on what I have experienced personally with the speakers I have worked with. I did run the numbers by a friend in a speaker's bureau and a handful of agents.

I’d love to hear from you in the comments on what you’ve learned about pricing (especially from speakers, agents, or event organizers!)

P.S. If you need help becoming an elite speaker with your content, delivery, and speaker assets join The Speak School. It's open NOW and starts this Thursday. Find out more here: https://lnkd.in/gZNRX3wQ
