Create The Meaningful Life You Desire

“All life is meaningful, but not everyone brings meaning to their life.” ~ Steve Hanson ~

Each of us is unique. We all have something to offer this world, that no one else can. But all too often, we fail to connect with what makes us special. We deny our worth, or underestimate our gifts.
This happens for a variety of reasons…
Fear, Guilt, Shame, and Self-doubt, to name just a few. The truth is that it can be uncomfortable, or even scary, to admit what might be holding us back. But it’s when we summon the courage to be honest; to be vulnerable, that we are most likely to learn, thereby giving us greater opportunity to find joy, peace, happiness, and ultimately, success.

You are capable of amazing things, but YOU have to believe it, and YOU have to be willing to put in the work. It takes time, it takes effort, and above all else, it takes the right tools for the job.

Time; it’s your most valuable asset, and your most precious commodity. The question is, how will you choose to spend it? This presentation is a not so subtle reminder that each of us has the power to effect positive change, and to make a difference. We have a responsibility, not only to ourselves, but to one another. It’s never too late, or too soon, to live a life of meaning; a life that creates a lasting impact, and leaves a legacy that you can be proud of. It’s a matter of time, and your time is NOW.
2. We’re On The Same Team:

This keynote address examines the role of meaningful leadership in the workplace, and answers the following questions: What is meaningful leadership? What are its effects on organizational morale, relationships, and productivity? Who can be a meaningful leader, and how can those skills be developed? This presentation is a rare opportunity for you to learn how you can shine brighter, lift others higher, and affect your team for the better. Let’s Go!  

From the moment that Steve steps onto the stage, you’ll understand that this is something different. As a member of the audience, you’ll smile easily and often. You’ll laugh a bit, and learn a lot.

Whether speaking for students, social groups, or business and community leaders, what Steve has to offer is far more than just a speech or presentation. It’s an experience; one not to be missed.

Stories That Connect

Personally

Self-talk. We all engage in it. It’s normal. It’s necessary. But what happens when our inner voice becomes our worst, and most constant critic?

It stops us from reaching our true potential. It steals our confidence, our joy, and even our dreams.

Are YOU ready?

Socially

How we treat one another says a lot about who we are. Even small acts of kindness can have a tremendous impact in the life of someone else. 

Without even realizing it, we might be…

  • A friend to the lonely
  • The words of encouragement that someone needs to hear
  • The reason someone tries again, and SUCCEEDS

When we bring out the best in others, it reveals the best in us. Change a life. Change the WORLD.

YOU have the power. 

Professionally

Developing a strong and inclusive culture is vital to the success of any organization.

When a company’s core values can be seen and felt in the day to day operations of its leadership, it establishes trust and goodwill with the workforce, and creates opportunities for everyone.

By fostering an environment that prioritizes employee strengths, we give ourselves the ability to more readily identify potential challenges. From there, we can adapt quickly, and meet those challenges head-on.

We win as a team…

And it begins with YOU.
