Why Planners Book Jon as Their Resilience Speaker

Built around your moment
Keynote messaging is customized to what leadership needs the room to feel that day.
Proven on the biggest stages

One clear deliverable
A single keynote address, delivered as your opening or closing moment. No breakouts to manage.
What the Resilience Keynote Covers
This is Jon's signature talk. He walks the audience through a real experience of hardship and the exact mindset shifts that carried him through it, from childhood tragedy to 14 years in the NFL and a run as an America's Got Talent finalist.
Instead of an abstract list of resilience tips, it is a first-person account structured so people draw their own parallels to what they are facing right now. It works in rooms after a layoff, a missed year, a restructuring or an industry shake-up, where a polished 'stay positive' message would fall flat.
- Resilience and overcoming adversity, Jon's anchor topic
- Forgiveness and living a life of purpose
- How self-talk shapes the way people show up under pressure
- Welcoming change so adaptability fuels growth
- Opening or closing keynote for conferences and conventions
- Fortune 500 all-hands, leadership summits and client events
- National and regional association annual conventions
- Sales kickoffs, President's Club and incentive audiences
- World-class magic woven through the presentation
- Content shaped around your event theme before the date
Trusted on Fortune 500 and Association Stages
“Jon is the BEST KEYNOTE SPEAKER I have ever seen. This was the first time I witnessed a speaker get an unsolicited standing ovation 1/2 through their presentation. HE INSPIRED. HE ENGAGED. HE ENTERTAINED.”
“Jon is by far the most powerful, engaging, dynamic and authentic presenter I have ever hired in my 17+ years of producing events. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll remember what really matters in life and you'll leave inspired to make a difference.”
“I'm listening to the presentation with a lot on my mind professionally and personally. The tears are not from confusion or sadness but clarity. Jon's presentation was profound and thought provoking. My outlook is different… improved after listening to his motivational story. Thank you Lincoln for bringing the best speaker we've ever had, at the right time, exactly when it was needed.”
