Bestselling author & award winning speaker… Alex Weber is back!

You may remember Alex from episode 380 of DREAM THINK DO… where we talked about 3 keys to becoming unstoppable! 

Alex has been killing it as a speaker… winning awards and traveling the globe!  But not only that but he’s working hard to build a business and a life that he freeeegin’ loves!  

And that’s why I’m sooooo freeeeegin’ excited to have him join us for EncouragerCON this year!  

He’s going to bring real-world strategies for growing a profitable and impactful speaking business.  And it’s going to be game-changing… especially if you’re wanting to build your own speaking business!

And… just as importantly… speaking of Alex building a business and a life that he loves… Alex’s amazing girlfriend will also be joining us for THIS conversation… as well as for EncouragerCON!

Jessica Backurz is an Empowerment Coach, focused on Faith, Fitness, and Relationships and she’s got an incredible story herself!  You are going to love her!

Plus, she and Alex have been creating fun engaging content together and I got the “nudge” that it was time for them to share the stage and talk about creating content together AND supporting each other as your speaking career is taking off!
