How attendees describe this talk

Highly engaging and relational. I had numerous takeaways and enjoyed the straightforward information aligned with humor and care. I would highly recommend his sessions in the future. Inspire or retire was my favorite. As a Supervisor many of the phrases and mindsets were helpful for me as I’ve been lacking motivation to tap in with unmotivated, underperforming employees. Thank you!

This session was beautiful! From the jokes, information, & quotes. I love seeing and hearing men especially black men giving back to the schools & communities. It’s so important for children to see people that look like them who care and want to see them do better in life. I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to attend this session.

Passionate and inspiring! Today, Coach BE said “inspire or retire”…if you don’t want to inspire kids, then you maybe you should be in a different profession. There are people in my organization who need to hear this!

Coach BE is engaging and relatable both on a personal and professional level. You leave empowered to be a better leader, and a better person. Not just for others…. But for yourself.

Coach BE is one of the most inspiring and engaging speakers I’ve ever heard. His impact on the youth is very easy to see and I would love to have him come talk to our kids.

Unbelievable!!! Coach BE reminded me of the “why” I chose to serve people! The most powerful statement to me, “be the person you needed when you were a kid.” 🥹🫶

Loved it. So many jewels and things were given that were needed to be shared and given. Loved the realness and intentional things that were said.

Helped me remember my why. I feel empowered and I look forward to bringing this energy back to my programs.

This session was relevant, engaging, REAL AND RAW. Love the dynamic between honesty, facts, and attitude.

I would come to hear him speak at any opportunity I could. I felt motivated and proud that what he shared, I genuinely feel I do with my kids. That reminder that I am on the right path was well needed.

I enjoyed Coach B’s presentation and his way of including the audience and it was engaging. Nice balance of humor, emotional stories, and information that I can take back with me.

Wow! Great Keynote speaker for this event. Understands the importance of working for kids, and gifted at communicating how we can be better.

Laughing about your own life and situations you have makes it easier for us to relax and laugh at things in ours as well.

Coach BE is amazing and has a message that many youth workers need to hear, to both inspire them and their youth.

Thank you for coming and speaking! It was very enjoyable, encouraging, and left me with things to think about

Definitely needed for how we can be better to better our organizations for our youth

I love all the joking matters but yet still captivating and educational

Great keynote! Had the right balance of information, heart, and humor.
