Speaking Testimonials
Tami graciously donated her time to speak on a panel for an intimate gathering of young nonprofit professionals. My goal was to create a discussion on the importance of telling your story to add value to your brand -- so, naturally, Tami immediately came to mind as an expert who could lay down some wisdom! Not only did Tami take the time and consideration to ensure she was providing valuable commentary ahead of time, she also brought a lot of great energy to the whole evening. She was a fabulous speaker and I'm sure our participants took away some valuable information from her contributions.

I had the chance to work with Tami during her reading and book signing at my bookstore, The Writer's Block. She had terrific poise, and the ability to connect on a deep level with the audience. Tami is able to deliver emotion while maintaining her awareness as a performer. Her open-hearted enthusiasm for telling stories, and her kindness to listeners, make her a terrific candidate for speaking engagements and seminars.

Branding Your Story
You don’t own your brand.
It's not your logo, your tagline or how you describe your company or nonprofit.
Your brand is in the mind of your customers. It's their perception of your organization.
The good news is you can help shape their perception through the stories you share.
Branding Your Story identifies the top places to find the treasure trove of stories inside your organization to build relationships, create conversations and endear your brand in the hearts and minds of your customers, employees, donors and volunteers.
What's Your Story?
Your bio is not your resume.
It's your story.
Our lives are seemingly serendipitous collisions of people, places and passions.
By connecting the dots you unravel a story that resonates with customers, employees, volunteers and donors.
It Pays to Be Good

with your clients, community and employees.

The Most Important Story is the One You Believe
Words are power tools that build your perception, drive your actions and manifest your future. I’ve told many stories throughout my life - from entrepreneurs to entertainers . . . survivors to inspirers . . . charities to CEOs. While each story was as unique as the individual, they all have something in common. Everyone told themselves a story they believed.
You write the script of your life. If you listen, you will be inspired by the stories of ordinary people who have lived extraordinary lives. Everyone has a story someone in the world needs to hear. Every day people triumph over tragedies big and small. Every story has the power to inspire . . . the potential to change a life and to save a life.
