From Invisible to Unmesswithable: My Speaking & Influence Mastery Story

I'm a two-time valedictorian from Liberia who skipped one graduation and attempted to skip the other. The reason? A stutter. The very thing I needed most—my voice—would abandon me at the worst moments. For 17 years, I had ideas. Manuscripts. Frameworks. But I couldn't bring them together. The missing pieces were always the same: How do I tell my story? How do I connect it to others? How do I become visible when my instinct is to hide? Then came the Impact Dynamics assessment. The results explained everything:

100% Visionary — I see patterns and possibilities others miss 79% Star — I perform well on stage 39% Storyteller — My blind spot. Self-advocating. Telling my own story.

I could help others become visible while staying invisible myself. That paradox defined my career. Speaking & Influence Mastery changed that. Through this program, I learned how to craft a story—take it from one minute to an hour, find the emotional arc, create what Eric calls "the holodeck" where you relive it rather than just retell it. I finally understood how to connect points, establish credibility, and speak to a broad audience rather than assuming people already understood my message. Most importantly, I discovered what a moment from 2018 actually meant. I'd been paid as a professional speaker and received a note afterward: "You sparked something in me." I didn't know what that moment signified until Eric shared his own story of coaching someone and seeing peace wash over their face—the moment he knew he could do this. That unlocked everything. The note wasn't just feedback. It was confirmation of who I was meant to serve. Now I'm about to publish the book I've been trying to write since 2008: "Unmesswithable: Why Capable People Fade Into Invisibility and How to Make Yourself Impossible to Ignore" That title isn't theory. It's testimony. I serve high-capacity, high-performing professionals who have the qualifications, certifications, and competence—but lack visibility because they don't know how to tell their own story. I know them because I was them. Eric Edmeades is one of my top 10 people. Best storyteller I've encountered. Accessible. Present. Someone who shows up. I highly recommend Speaking & Influence Mastery. Not as advice. As testimony. The valedictorian who couldn't speak is about to help thousands stop being their own best kept secret.
