I Want Juice In My Life...But Why Do I Have To Do All The Juicing Myself?All of us want our lives to be filled with Vitamin C and all the other good things we need, but we often wish someone else would do the "squeezing" for us. In this session, Nancy Coey will explore the reasons we limit our futures by limiting our choices, and will help us make a firm commitment to effectiveness and joy for the rest of our lives.
What Would Happen If I DID Remove The Mattress TagEffective women are willing to discard the unnecessary, let go of things that hold them back, and start living with purpose in the present. This program will help you remove self-limiting behaviors and show you the way to step into the jet stream which is waiting for you, only an inch away.
Speaker Information
Nancy Coey's fun, funny, and inspirational keynotes connect with women of all ages. Whether she's talking about beginning a weight training class and progressing from the last row in the corner of the room to the front row where the Big Girls hang out ("Move over, I'm an athlete"), or recounting a story about attitude and self-esteem as seen through the eyes of her son and his soccer experience, Nancy hits a chord. Maybe it's because her stories are true - and women always recognize truth. Or maybe the stories resonate because they're well crafted. In either case, the bottom line is this: Nancy wraps always-original material in wit and wisdom and, with a gift for language, weaves magic with her audiences.
And the proof is in the results: Nancy's keynotes receive standing ovations 99% of the time. Warm, witty, and honest, Nancy has the unique ability to see the extra-ordinary in the ordinary. With her conversational style and common-sense content, audiences come away feeling that she has spoken directly to them.
She developed her keen eyesight from more than twenty years of teaching the Dreaded Freshman English. (Nancy taught both writing and public speaking at Ohio State University, the University of Hawaii, and North Carolina State University, and her work has been highlighted on the PBS series, "Excellence in Teaching"). In helping students "train their eyes," she trained her own. As a result, her programs are filled with original material - material you will hear nowhere else.
In ten years as a motivational keynote speaker, Nancy has built a reputation for original and memorable stories. Her book, Finding Gifts in Everyday Life, a collection of true stories from her own life, is in its 5th printing and is a B. Dalton "Book of the Week." Nancy and her husband, Don, have been married for thirty years and have two grown sons. They have traded in the folding chairs they used to carry from soccer to football to baseball fields and now spend time watching deer eat the green things they had so lovingly planted in their backyard.
