If you can’t get your S*it together, it might be because you are negotiating way to much in your life. Giving in, letting things be OK instead of great, not standing up for yourself or your values. And then you want to cry, cry, cry and ask, “Why can’t I get my S*it together?” Because…
Listen to EpisodeSome people are gifted, then some people are gifted with the gift of gab.

Well maybe you don’t live in Beverly Hills, but you are Beverly Hills adjacent and…
Listen to EpisodeThe year was 2012. On a whim and a nudge from my friend Leah Jantzen I embarked on the journey of an internet radio show entitled “The Coming Out Lounge.” 26 shows later I decided I was done, but, as with most good things in life, I wasn’t done, I was only just beginning. Two…
Listen to EpisodeWe’ve all been in jobs where we roll our eyes, wonder who’s on first, and just say in our heads, “Screw it. I’m just here to get a paycheck!” Sometimes that’s our own stuff that we feel that way, but unfortunately, too often, it’s the organization that we work for is the biggest culprit to…
Listen to EpisodeToday we continue to explore the real truths as to why you can’t get your shit together. I’m sorry to be so blunt. Oh wait.

Listen to EpisodeSometimes you’ve got to chase your dreams, make a bold move, and focus on two things that you find make you happy. For some that might be eating pizza and going on vacation. For others it could be taking a stand for advocacy, or stepping out of a situation that no longer serves you. However,…

Listen to EpisodeWhere does never following conventions or bowing down to peer pressure lead you? To start a London-based theatre company despite never having previously studied theatre or staged a show, of course. Or maybe it leads you to get lost in Marrakech as a teenager or becoming completely exposed in a Japanese Onsen. All of these…
Listen to EpisodeOMG. This is my worst nightmare, and probably yours too, but you may not be admitting it yet. We are a society addicted to making excuses. Yes addicted. Shocking as that may seem, we make excuses, like we change our underwear. And then we wonder why we can’t make headway, be successful, or get our…
Listen to EpisodeThe truth is, once you make a bold move, you’ve got the blueprint, and you can keep those bold moves coming.

Only a select few speakers deliver performances, instead of simply speeches. Rick Clemons is one of those speakers…ahem, performers. He engages the audience with powerful stories, spot-on lessons, and his wonderfully unique wit. Compare Rick to any Broadway performance, and I would pick Rick Clemons every single time.

Rick Clemons was a great addition to our College Kick-off event as a guest speaker. His keynote presentation (“Make your Quirk Work”) was rated by our student audience members as “very good to excellent.” The material truly resonated with our theme for the year and the day. In his very lively session, Rick gave our students clear tips – and most importantly, actionable suggestions — on how to implement these valuable strategies.
