Best Story
In working with 100,000 people in 30+ years of running multiple businesses I have many amazing stories. One particular one that is close to my heart is that of Sarahs. She used to doubt that her story mattered, but now she's a successful author. Seeing her change like that has been really inspiring. In all my years of business, I've seen lots of people go through transformations like Sarah. Her story shows how powerful it is when you embrace your own story—it not only feels real but also helps your business grow. She's not just a speaker; she's become someone people really want to hear. Her story is a big deal, and I'd love to share it on your stage. I think it could inspire a lot of people.
Origin Story
For much of my life, I believed that my story didn't matter. Growing up in a strict, conservative family and as an immigrant child in a society that didn't accept me, as well as being a woman in a man's world, all contributed to this belief. However, I've always been fascinated by other people's stories, and as a child, I loved interviewing people and learning about their backgrounds, families, and careers. But it wasn't until I shared my own story in an anthology with Dr. John Gray from Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, that I realized the power of my own narrative. Through sharing my journey of overcoming a debilitating illness to become a successful mother, wife, and entrepreneur, I was able to inspire and give hope to countless other women who felt like their stories didn't matter. This helped me find my voice and my purpose.
Fueled by a desire to break free from fear of being seen, heard and known I started my current business Uplyft Media to help women share their stories and messages to reach their ideal clients. My mission is to create a revolution where anyone can create the life they desire despite their past, background or circumstances. I'm doing this by not only sharing my own story but also by showcasing the stories of other women who have overcome devastating circumstances and achieved their dreams. Through faith, intuition, and determination, they've gone from victims to victors. I want to show women that they can have it all and that it's possible to dream big and achieve their wildest aspirations. They can make the shift from being the Best-Kept Secret to Shining Star for all to see.
