Juan’s session was outstanding! He was rated #1 in our post-conference survey for content, and attendees gave him fantastic reviews. The keynote address was incredibly meaningful and left a lasting impact. His personal story and insights resonated deeply. I’ve even caught myself reflecting on his advice that I don’t have to be THE best, but I should always aim to be MY best.

Juan's impact was so memorable the first time I saw him speak that he immediately came to mind years later when I needed a guest speaker for an event. Almost a month after his talk at our sales kickoff, my team members are still referencing concepts that Juan gave us. I can see evidence of the significant impression that Juan made in my day-to-day, not only in how my staff shows up, but in my own mindset.
