Rhonda has been a professional speaker for over 25 years, has spoken in dozens of countries, won a few awards, and has written a bunch of books too! Her proudest accomplishment is finally breaking 95 on the golf course.

Rhonda has been earning money from speaking since she was two years old!   Her mother used to offer her 25 cents to be quiet for five minutes.  Since that time, she has figured out how to get clients to pay her to speak and to not be quiet.  Her mother and her family still don’t understand why.

Sometimes You’re The Windshield…Sometimes You’re The Bug
Sometimes life gets the better of us, and we ask “Whose life is it, anyway”? When you stop living for yourself, and live only for everyone else, something is missing! In this humorous keynote, Rhonda shares that not only do we all experience this feeling – it’s OK to be frustrated!

I Can’t Get No Satisfaction
Do you feel like you are just putting in time when you come to work? Hopefully not. Do you feel appreciated, valued and like you are an important part of the team? Don’t fear if you don’t – You’re not alone! Learn to get “satisfaction.”

Charisma, Credibility & Confidence. The 1-2-3 Plan for Success!
Why is it that some people can walk into a room, and everyone will notice. Or with others, there is that immediate connection with (or the opposite – the immediate dislike!) Everyone wants to be the person that exudes Charisma, Credibility and Confidence.

Make the Leap to Remarkable
I get it, you’re good at what you do – but are you remarkable? Do you really stand out as “one of the best”? And if you’ve been doing your job for a while now (lets say, over five years), how do you know if you are that good anymore?

Where’s Waldo – Finding the Elusive Success!
We hear about success and happiness. We have even occasionally felt that perhaps we are happy and successful, but like Waldo, it seems extremely hard to find, and it disappears even after you find it.
