A Vision Delayed, Not Denied
For more than a year, I kept seeing Taylor’s face pop up in Facebook ads. Every few weeks, there he was again, inviting me to join a workshop. I clicked a few times, intrigued, but life always got in the way. The timing never seemed right. That is, until it finally was.
When I finally said yes, everything aligned. The registration worked. The payment plan appeared. And it was as if the door I had been knocking on quietly for months was suddenly wide open. I didn’t walk through it, I ran.
This wasn’t just another impulse purchase or another “maybe someday” project. It was the next step in something Suzanne and I had been feeling for years: a calling to share a message that matters.
From Calling to Clarity
For years, I carried this quiet vision, standing on a stage and sharing something meaningful. Not for applause. Not for validation. But because I knew in my heart that my story could help someone else. I’d always imagined it like a modern-day “sermon on the mount”, sharing deep spiritual insight in a way that could truly uplift.
But I had no idea how to get there. Until Leadr.co
What I found in this program was more than just a framework, it was clarity. Every step, from discovering the core message to learning how to structure it, felt like puzzle pieces falling into place. I didn’t have to guess. I didn’t have to overthink. There was a path, and all I had to do was follow it.
Coaching That Changed Everything
I’ve worked with coaches before. Sometimes, it feels like they’re reading from a script, going through the motions without ever really seeing you. This was not that.
The coaching at Leadr.co is intentional, heart-centered, and truly individualized. They pushed me to dig deeper, to sharpen my story, and to deliver it with conviction. And they did it with care.
What surprised me most was how much their coaching transformed me—not just as a speaker, but as a person. The more I committed to the process, the more confident and grounded I became. I started showing up differently, not just to my talk, but to my entire life.
The Power of Practice and Community
I’m not sure I fully understood how powerful community could be until I joined the Leadr.co family. It’s not just about practicing your talk or meeting deadlines. It’s about being seen, supported, and celebrated.
The weekly accountability calls, practice sessions, and group intensives created an environment where growth was inevitable. Every time I stepped into a session, I walked away with new insight, not just about my talk, but about myself.
And that Intensive? Life-changing. The energy, the support, the breakthroughs, it all reminded me that I’m not alone on this journey. There’s an entire community rooting for me, and I’m rooting for them, too.
A Message Meant to Be Shared
At first, it felt like my story. Something deeply personal, even sacred. But the more I worked on it, the more I realized: this isn’t just for me. It’s for the person sitting in the back of the room, wondering if healing is possible. It’s for the friend who needs a reminder that there’s light ahead.
The process helped me realize that my message isn’t just a chapter in my life, it’s a gift. And Leadr.co gave me the tools to package that gift in a way that others could receive it.
A Life Transformed, On and Off the Stage
One of the unexpected blessings of this journey is how much it’s impacted every other part of my life. The same discipline I brought to working on my talk began to influence my daily routines. I started cooking breakfast more often. I was getting to the gym. I was showing up for myself in new, consistent ways.
This wasn’t just about becoming a better speaker. It was about becoming a fuller version of myself.
Final Thoughts: Say Yes
If you’re thinking about joining Leadr.co, here’s what I’ll say: don’t wait as long as I did. If the opportunity has found you, trust that it’s for a reason. You don’t have to know everything. You just need to be willing to show up.
This program won’t just help you land a stage, it’ll help you find your voice, clarify your purpose, and connect with a community that truly wants to see you win.
And that, to me, is priceless.
