On a Mission to Help Thought Leaders Rise as Global Voices of Impact 🎤

In 2022, my life changed forever.
What once terrified me—speaking—became the spark that ignited my calling. That moment wasn’t just about finding my voice. It was about helping others discover theirs.

Today, I help thought leaders grow influential brands, land TEDx talks, and become global voices of transformation.

As a Forbes-featured entrepreneur, International TEDx Speaker, 2× Bestselling Author, Podcast Host, and Award-Winning Speaker, I’ve built a proven system to help speakers, consultants, and CEOs elevate their message and confidently lead movements that matter.

Whether you're launching a podcast, applying for TEDx, or building your authority in a crowded space, I bring both strategy and soul to your success.


What I Do:

• Help entrepreneurs + speakers become TEDx speakers

• Build magnetic brands that drive revenue to your business

• Land TV interviews and launch profitable podcasts

• Coach leaders using my GRASP™ Method (Gratitude, Responsibility, Action, Sight, Purpose)

• Host the globally ranked GRASP Confidence podcast


I believe confidence is a calling, not a personality trait and that leadership grounded in faith, strategy, and action can change the world.

From rural Maryland as the youngest child of five raised by a single mother to global stages, I’m proof that when you bet on yourself anything is possible.

My purpose is to help others rise in their God-given identity and pursue their callings with confidence. ❤️



𝘼𝙨 𝙖 𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧 & 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙩:
I deliver high-impact keynotes and workshops on leadership and personal growth, blending confidence with business strategies that create lasting transformation and success. 

𝘼𝙨 𝙖 𝙈𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧𝙨:
I help thought leaders refine their messaging, position their brands for success, land TEDx talks, build global influence, and turn their stories into movements. My clients step onto world-class stages and lead businesses with clarity, purpose, and conviction.
