MY STORY
One question I get often is how did I become an inspirational speaker? For me, I always knew that I had and positive influence on others, but I only thought it was my athletic abilities that drew people near to me. It wasn't until going through my recovery process of my season ending knee injury that I noticed my words have impact. This was around the time instagram came out with its story feature where videos and pictures would disappear after twenty-four hours.
I posted videos talking about what I was experiencing and others would comment saying things such as "this was so helpful," "that was a powerful message, thanks!," "you just changed my perspective on life dude." I mustard up the courage to post videos to my profile that would stay visible and that's when I got my first request to come speak. A coach from my Highschool football team asked if I'd speak to the team when I visited home. I got my talk with them recorded, posted mini clips of it on instagram and once people started to see that's what I was doing, I began to get more request.
Overtime I reached more people through social media, tiktok had just came out and I had a few videos go viral. In 2019, a guy named Michale Ayalon reached out to me for a podcast interview. I soon found out that he was the CEO of a speaking agency know as Greek University. I was invited to Nashville, Tennessee where I signed to have him as my agent, and shortly I began to add college campuses on my list of places to speak.
"My Son's overall awareness of his mindset and emotions has been so impactful. While he still struggles at times, the work Trevon has done has given my son a foundation to understand what he's feeling, the tools to go about addressing it, and/or the confidence to seek help or guidance. Honestly, just having Trevon in his corner has been life changing for him, we truly believe that."
