Lynnette Fritshaw

Always stand in your power, and have the courage to speak your truth. Trauma Coach • Author • Retired Firefighter

I’m Lynnette Fritshaw—retired career firefighter, trauma coach, author of ‘You’re On Your Own’, and the first female career firefighter in my hometown department. But the part that matters most to your audience isn’t the title .. it’s the truth beneath it.

I spent nearly two decades breaking barriers in a male-dominated world that was not ready for me. Behind the uniform was a woman carrying invisible injuries: bullying, discrimination, misogyny, toxic leadership, and years of silence that cost me my identity, my voice, and my well-being.

What your audience will connect with is not just the hardship, but what came after: the rebuilding, the perspective shift, the self-ownership, and the fire it takes to rise from what tried to destroy you.

Today, I teach people how to reclaim their power after trauma by challenging their beliefs, owning what role they are playing in their own suffering, and breaking patterns of silence and self-abandonment. I show people how to stop living from fear and survival .. and start living and thriving from truth.

And I bring something most speakers can’t: the personal experience to back every lesson I teach.

I lived it before I taught it. I didn’t read about resilience .. I bled for it. I didn’t study adversity .. I survived it.

I truly believe I was given this mountain to show others that it can be moved.

Your audience will walk away with a real, relatable story of adversity in a world that told me I didn’t belong and I was on my own, a trauma-informed understanding of why people stay silent, stuck, or powerless, tools to regulate their nervous system and reclaim control in overwhelming moments, empowerment to stop abandoning themselves and start choosing their own voice, and hope and proof that it’s possible to rise, even when the system is built against you!

Whether your show focuses on mental health, resilience, women’s empowerment, healing, leadership, first responders, personal development, or transformational storytelling, I bring a message that resonates with anyone who has ever felt underestimated, powerless, voiceless, or alone in their struggle.

Kern Carter

Novelist and Entrepreneur making a living with words.

I'm living a dream.

I told myself at 8 years old that I would be a novelist and that is exactly the life I'm living today. That said, it took a lot to get here.

I dropped out of high school at 18 when I became a father. But I believed so much in the power of education that I found a way to earn my final credit then accepted a full athletic scholarship to play basketball at a university in Upstate New York.

University is where I started writing my first novel in earnest. After self-publishing my first two books, I secured an agent and signed my first publishing deal in 2021, then two more in 2022 with Penguin and Scholastic. I currently have multiple publishing contracts.

I also have a thriving creative business that includes Film Production (one of my films is on Amazon Prime Video), Ghostwriting, and building platforms for emerging writing and creative talent.

My story is all about perseverance and strategy. I didn't get here by accident. I planned each step of my journey with precision and now I'm living the live I've always dreamed of.

Ange Dove

Feeling overlooked? Simply start showing up.

I've left millions on the table because I did not leverage my personal brand. It's an expensive mistake that I want to make sure no up-and-coming business owner makes.

I was crippled with insecurity, hid behind my business brand, fell apart in front of the camera, left decades with no photos of me because I refused to be seen, and paid the price in my business.

I'm here to make sure that doesn't happen to your guests and that they get known for one thing with a message that's crystal clear.

Building my copywriting business offline over 20 years ago, I transitioned it to a fully online business in 2016, bringing fixed overheads down from $80,000 per month to just the few hundred dollars it takes to run the subscriptions for my online tools, and giving myself the freedom to run my business from anywhere on my terms and around my lifestyle.
