In dragon boating, every single paddler counts, just like in Jennifer Maxwell's team’s journey from novices to champions. They started as a motley crew of inexperienced paddlers, faced with harsh weather and tough competition, ending up at the back of the pack. But instead of giving up, they doubled down on their efforts.
They practiced harder, grew closer, and learned the value of every role—from the Pacer to the Engine Room and the Finishers. Each position is critical. For example, as a Pacer, Jennifer learned her rhythm was key to synchronizing the entire right side of the boat, setting the pace for their collective power. And when she temporarily moved to the front, the shift in perspective was enlightening. Every stroke, every position, mattered immensely for their boat’s balance and speed. This realization fueled their growth, leading them to podium finishes, proving that unity and individual effort are the essence of success.
Join Jennifer Maxwell as she shares these powerful insights and motivates you to unlock your human potential.

Growing up, Yusuf faced a dilemma when his name sparked curiosity and sometimes exclusion in new communities. To blend in, he started introducing himself as Joseph. For 25 years, this name change seemed like a success. He traveled globally, built a thriving business, and shared stages with icons like Dr. Maya Angelou, Oprah Winfrey, former President Bill Clinton, and Tony Robbins, enjoying material success. But beneath the surface, something was off. Yusuf felt a disconnect, a piece of him was missing. It took years, but he finally confronted the truth.
His original name, Yousef, wasn't just a label but a connection to a rich heritage of history, tradition, and culture. This realization hit during a self-discovery journey, emphasizing that true fulfillment comes from embracing one's authentic self, not by altering to fit in. Yusuf reclaimed his name and with it, a sense of peace and identity, highlighting the profound impact of self-acceptance.
Think about your own story. Are you living true to yourself? Let's embrace who we really are, together. Follow @speakerslam for more stories of self-discovery and empowerment.

Imagine this: You're at home after a party, running through a recap of the night in your head, when a thought hits you that shakes your core. For Sonia Palleck, it was a tiny voice in the back of her mind, wishing a budding romantic interest was white. Shocked that any part of her would think this, she stared deep into her eyes in the mirror, questioning, 'Is this really what I think?' This moment was her wake-up call. Raised in a family that valued whiteness, she realized these beliefs had seeped into her subconscious from a young age.
Admitting this to herself and others was tough but crucial. She wrestled with societal conditioning and her upbringing, the fear of not belonging, and the guilt of unintentionally supporting a racist system. Through months of self-reflection and unlearning, Sonia transformed her view from '"racism is understandable" to "racism is incomprehensible." She embraced that we are all equal, stepping out of a world of measurement by external factors into one of love and connection. This shift was about seeing the truth, that everyone deserves love and respect, regardless of skin color.
Now, it's your turn. Reflect on your thoughts, challenge them, and see what comes up.

It started in the darkest times, feeling alone and cut off, especially during the pandemic when a medical condition made her a public target. People whispered, stared, and even called the police on her for not wearing a mask.
She was drowning in negativity, which pushed her to unfriend herself from everyone but family for over two years. The silence was deafening. Yet, in that solitude, something shifted.
Messages began trickling in from old friends, expressing concern and missing the laughter and real talks they shared. Their words sparked a realization—she wasn't just a forgotten face; she was missed, needed, and valued. Encouraged by their support, she decided to step back into the light and relaunched her networking event, Ladies Who Dine. The turnout was unbelievable, over 50 incredible women, proving the power of genuine connections and that even after being Enemy Number One, she was still cherished.
It taught her that reconnection begins with a single brave step towards the people who matter.
Don't let the darkness define you. Reconnect, rebuild, and rediscover the strength of community.
Congratulations @TheValVee for winning Speaker Slam's Human Connection competition. See you at the Grand Slam in November. :)

As the #2 Inspirational Speaker of the Year at Speaker Slam, Lauren shared her impactful journey. From Mississauga, Ontario, she exemplifies resilience and advocacy. Living with Central Core Disease (CCD), a rare neuromuscular disorder, she navigates life with approximately 33% of the physical strength of an average person. Yet, Lauren's story is a beacon of extraordinary determination and positivity.
In Canada, one in 12 individuals lives with a rare disease, contributing to a global statistic of 300 million people affected.
Lauren's involvement in the Rare Disease Day 2024 campaign has brought visibility not only to CCD but also to the broader rare disease community.
Her appearance gave Breakfast Television viewers a chance to learn about her advocacy for rare diseases and the GTA landmarks participating in the global #LightUpForRare campaign. #RareDiseaseDay #LightUpForRare #LaurenPires #changemaker

Imagine living in a city torn apart by war, where even seeing your best friend becomes impossible. This was the reality for Aseel's mother, a Muslim, whose best friend, Asia, a Christian, was stuck on the other side of the city during the Lebanese Civil War.
Despite the danger, Aseel's mom snuck out one night to see Asia. Their emotional reunion, with tears and fearless hand-squeezing, defied the war's attempt to tear them apart. They made a promise that night – no war could break their bond.
They even vowed to name their firstborn daughters after each other, a symbol of their unbreakable friendship. This is how Aseel got her name, carrying a legacy of friendship and unity in a time of division and fear."
Congratulations @aseelbaba on winning the Reinvention competition and she is now heading to the Inspirational Speaking Finals on November 16th to compete for the title of Inspirational Speaker of the Year!

As we step into the New Year, many of us make resolutions, often focusing on personal goals. But have you considered a resolution about your work?
Considering we spend about 70% of our awake hours in work-related activities, it's a huge part of our lives. This year, let's change how we view our jobs. It's not just about the paycheck; it's about the purpose and the people we serve.
Canadian studies show that 2 out of 10 people feel disconnected from their jobs. But here's a New Year's challenge: find the joy in serving others through your work. It doesn’t matter if you're in tech, education, healthcare, or any field – your work impacts lives.
Embrace this and see your job as a service to others. This mindset shift can turn everyday tasks into sources of happiness and fulfillment. It's about making a difference, one day at a time. As you make your New Year's resolutions, add one more – to find joy in the service your job provides. This simple change in perspective can transform your 2024, making work not just a duty, but a source of daily joy.
Make 2024 the year you find joy in your work!
