The Struggle of the Juggle: How to “Have it all” as a Professional Speaker

Dr Justin Coulson PhD CSP

Dr Justin Coulson knew he wanted to be a speaker. But with no idea how to become one and no speaking experience - how was this former radio announcer turned academic supposed to leave a university contract and support a wife and six kids while speaking for free?

He had no business acumen, no networks, and no idea.

He nearly lost the family home three times in four years, but now has a reputation as a leading expert in his field, has two best-sellers to his name (with a third on the way), earns a multiple six-figure income, and is still married to his wife of 20 years.

In this presentation, Justin will share:

  • The three key decisions every speaker must make to make it
  • How to go from free to fee to YIPPEE
  • How to build a national profile and score television, radio, and press publicity without a publicist
  • How to keep your relationships thriving when life seems hopeless, dire, and impossible.
