Today I had my check-in call. They sent me the website link. I started scrolling…

and I about fell out of my seat.

I’m the Friday keynote.

And Josh Shipp is the Thursday keynote.

I honestly don’t know if I’ll even get the chance to meet him—but I am deeply honored to be part of the same event.

I’ve been working at this motivational speaking thing for 14 years.

Fourteen years of schools, gyms, small rooms, big rooms, long drives, self-doubt, belief, setbacks, and showing up anyway.

And today… this is one of those days where it hits you.

To stand on a stage after someone who has changed millions of lives—that’s humbling. That’s meaningful. That’s bigger than ego.

I wish they’d used a better picture of me 

…but I wouldn’t trade this moment for anything.

I’m sharing this for one reason: hope.

If you’re doing the work…

If you’re staying consistent when nobody’s clapping…

If you’re questioning whether it’s worth it…

Keep going.

One day, you’ll look up and realize you’re standing in rooms you once only dreamed about.

It is my honor.

It is my pleasure.

And Josh—if you ever see this—thank you for the impact you’ve made.
