Looking for a motivational speaker?

I am frequently asked how Survivor has changed my life and the major way is the opportunity and privilege of getting in front of as many people as I can to tell them that they too have a dream, with a flame that burns within and never to allow anyone to put their dream down, snuffing out their flame. In my game on Survivor Gabon, Jeff snuffed out my flame because my tribe had decided I was someone that did not suit their tribe so they voted me out. But guess what, NO ONE will ever put out the flame I have inside of me and I am still in that game by getting in front of as many people as I can leveraging my “fame as a Survivor ”   I do not charge for school assemblies, faculty meetings, service organizations, church groups , parents groups, senior citizen groups or any group who is looking for a speaker or a fundraiser. I only ask for travel expenses if it is more that a 2 hr round trip so I do not go in the poorhouse doing what I love. I do charge for larger corporations and a fee is negotiated.

I did 96 talks in a year, have now done 110 and people are loving what I have to say and I am loving all the feedback I get from everyone. I do not believe anyone can motivate as that has to come from within but I do seem to inspire. The feedback I have received has truly made me the Million Dollar Winner of my season and a few testimonials are on this website to attest to that.

My message applies to anyone from 2 to 102 as it is all about my motto of Dream it, Believe it, Prepare for it and DO IT. Have persistence and never give up. Work towards that dream as long as it is reasonable and if you do the preparation it takes.  If one approach is not getting you where you want to be then try another but keep trying. If a 61 year old woman can achieve her dream after 8 years when thousands and thousands of people try to get on Survivor then anything is possible. I have been one of 301 contestants and one of 7 over 60. My dream however was not just to prove that I could get on the game despite all odds but to have a platform to turn that game into something long lasting and my story is powerful and far reaching. The message is also that sometimes things do not turn out the way one hopes but it is how you deal with it that determines the path of the rest of your life.  My talks are generally 45 minutes which includes 10 mins of photos from my game and then time for questions and there are always many asked. My audiences are always totally interested and focused on my message and stories of Survivor. I have talked to groups of 10 to 5000 in a school PSA and Quad party. The average is 300. I have photos and write ups from some of the engagements on my Facebook page.

Contact me for bookings and I will send out some brochures. I know you have a school,a group or a fundraiser  that is waiting to hear my message that is inspirational, entertaining and free.
