Blake was amazing! Our employees loved hearing him speak and he was very engaging and funny. They were raving about him for days after. Think he picked up 650+ fans as he takes on his next competitions this year! It was our first time having a motivation speaker and he set the bar really high!

Blake did a wonderful job with his presentations. We are very pleased!!! Our students, staff, and parents enjoyed the message and commented on the inspiration they received. I was very impressed with his ability to speak to our students in Grades 3-5. Blake spoke at their level and provided strong examples and symbolisms with his message of positive living and overcoming challenges/obstacles.
