Jeremiah was a smash hit! He has a gift - a great presenter / storyteller who embeds compelling lessons into his presentations. He tailored his material to our audience so that it was a perfect fit. The consensus is that we'd love to have him back again, and so we’ve already hired him to be the closing keynote for our MBA Leadership Day next year.

You can feel his humanity and personality in a way that very few professional speakers are able to pull off. I’m always weary of hiring leadership speakers who have a canned speech or tell stories they’ve found elsewhere. With Jeremiah, we hit the jackpot. He has such an amazing story, incredible delivery, and with so many relevant takeaways. He reminded us that no matter our age, career stage, or changes going on in our lives, there is always a new journey open to us if we choose. You’ve got to get this guy for your event!

Cisco Connect brings thousands of IT leaders together to talk about the latest trends in technology. This year we wanted to do something different, particularly with our choice of keynote speaker. We wanted a message of hope, perseverance, and resilience during these challenging times. Jeremiah delivered with his keynote on achieving the impossible. It was a fantastic keynote and got some of the highest marks for the sessions that were delivered. Jeremiah made me laugh, made me cry, and made me believe that we can accomplish anything that we set our minds to. I highly recommend him.

One of the best - if not the best - motivational speeches I have ever seen in my ~30 years in the business. Our top leadership people were laughing, people were crying, and everyone came out totally pumped. Jeremiah also went "above and beyond" what he was required to do by attending most of our 2 day conference and incorporating our company's context, strategy, and vocabulary into his presentation. Amazing job, Jeremiah. A++!
Frederic Perron
President & CEO
We booked Jeremiah as the opening keynote speaker for our first post-pandemic conference for primary healthcare physicians, leaders and change agents from across Alberta. We hoped his talk would inspire and engage the group in moving forward in unity toward a common purpose – despite all of the challenges and barriers they face. We were not disappointed. The audience was fully engaged. We both laughed and were brought to tears by Jeremiah’s honesty and vulnerability in sharing his story. We were inspired by his relatable lessons and wise insights. At the end of his talk, all 330 participants gave Jeremiah a thunderous standing ovation – something I’ve never witnessed at this annual conference. He was referenced repeatedly in the sessions to follow, and I have no doubt his story will be an inspiration for years to come. From the bottom of our hearts, Jeremiah – thank you.

Wow, I was gobsmacked! Jeremiah is an absolutely amazing keynote speaker. He takes you on a journey from start to end that is so relatable and inspiring. I've seen a lot of keynote speakers over the years, and Jeremiah is exceptional. He is so approachable, candid, and inspiring. His keynote provokes deep reflection and genuine emotion. His insights on perseverance and navigating through uncertainty were so relevant to our experience over the past few years. It's a message of not giving up, working together as a team when progress seems uncertain, and staying hopeful in the face of adversity. I absolutely recommend Jeremiah.

Jeremiah’s story was fantastic for our annual leadership forum. It was a story of true perseverance, resilience, and fighting through in pursuit of a very high goal. It’s a great human interest story, but even better as it relates to being part of a leadership team. It’s about understanding what it takes to change, adapt, fighting through roadblocks, and never giving up from the pursuit of your goal. Jeremiah is a very engaging speaker who really connected with our people. I highly recommend him!
Mike Mosher

We are looking at a rapidly changing business environment. Jeremiah inspired our leadership team to adopt a breakthrough mindset, which is exactly the message we needed to deliver to our team as we prepare to innovate through the challenges ahead.
Faisal Kazi
President & CEO
Without a word of exaggeration, the leadership team was so pumped by Jeremiah’s talk. It was all 10’s across the board, and it even weaved into conversations and subsequent presentations. A universal success! I was 100% delighted with Jeremiah’s talk and its impact.
Jon Hantho
President & CEO
I had the pleasure of listening to Jeremiah speak to my company leadership. It was probably the best use of an hour I could have had, with the insights he brings on setting and attaining a goal ones that resonate across all walks of life. He delivers the message with humour and humility, characteristics that mark him out as an outstanding speaker. For anyone who is on a journey to improve themselves or their business, I cannot recommend listening to his story highly enough.
Alex Price
Vice Chairman
We were so lucky to have Jeremiah speak to a small group of our national sales leaders. His content was inspiring and engaging, but best of all he did an amazing job relating his personal story to the challenges and opportunities facing our team – the team even commented on how well he seemed to understand the challenges they are facing. The group left motivated and excited to deliver. I would definitely recommend Jeremiah for corporate events and business groups large or small.

Thank you for inspiring the AutoCanada leadership team with your story and the unique way you tell it. We were impressed that you attended our morning session and that you took our messages and incorporated them into your own. You even stayed for the awards dinner which meant a lot to us. Your story itself is impressive but the way it is told and the fact that is applicable to the business needs was amazing. We would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking to make the impossible, possible.
Jeff Thorpe

One barely expects to be engrossed in a Zoom session so much so that they can not take a water break, but here I was sitting, laughing animatedly at my laptop as Jeremiah evoked raw emotions associated with failure, victory, dreams, quitting and forgotten potential. He was one of the key speakers at Ivey Business School's session on leadership lessons. Little did I expect to learn from an Olympic rower for application in my corporate career, but he inspired us all through thought-provoking situations and circumstances that can and do occur in all professional and personal setups, be it team work, a test of resilience or chasing one’s most ambitious dreams. I would highly recommend his session to professionals and dreamers struggling to break out of their rut or in need of that one final push that will make them pursue their goal, whatever it may be.

Inspirational, engaging and authentic speaker Jeremiah had a special way to connect emotionally with the audience while sharing his Olympian story and lessons to our in-flight services leadership team - it was a pure joy to work closely with him. Thank you for being part of a very successful rebuilding session!
