Belonging isn't just a buzzword. It's the foundation of strong teams, thriving workplaces, and meaningful human connection.

This June, we're shining a spotlight on five incredible speakers who help organizations create cultures where people feel seen, valued, and connected.

Each brings a unique perspective on inclusion, connection, workplace culture, leadership, communication, and the power of creating spaces where everyone can contribute and thrive.

If your organization is looking to strengthen engagement, foster connection, and build a culture of belonging, these thought leaders deliver conversations that inspire action long after the event ends.

Connect with us today, and let's create an experience that helps your audience feel connected, empowered, and inspired.

Today, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage, service, and selflessness will never be forgotten.

Memorial Day is more than the start of summer; it’s a time to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy because of those who gave everything to protect them. We’re grateful for their legacy and for the families who carry that sacrifice every day.

From all of us at Preferred Speakers, we honor and remember.

Dr. Bertice Berry doesn’t just speak to audiences, she moves them. ❤️

From growing up as one of seven children in Wilmington, Delaware and being told she wasn’t “college material,” to earning her Ph.D. in Sociology at just 26 years old, her story is proof that other people’s limits don’t define your future.

She went on to become:

🎤 National Comedian of the Year (four consecutive years)
📚 Best-selling author of multiple inspiring and hilarious books
📺 Host of her own nationally syndicated talk show, The Bertice Berry Show
🎓 Award-winning lecturer and educator
✨ One of the most powerful voices on leadership, resilience, transformation, and purpose

What makes Dr. Berry unforgettable is her ability to blend humor, heart, and hard truths in a way that resonates deeply with audiences. She tackles serious topics with honesty, warmth, and a perspective that sticks with people long after the event ends.

She’s appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, ABC’s 20/20, NPR, and countless stages across the country, inspiring audiences to push past limitations and step fully into their purpose.

And through it all, she continues to give back by supporting scholarships, families in transition, and communities in need.

Her message is simple but powerful: when you walk with purpose, you collide with destiny.

Today, we’re celebrating the women who lead with heart, show up with strength, and somehow make the impossible look effortless. Moms wear more hats than anyone can count: mentor, cheerleader, problem solver, and often the voice that keeps us grounded when life gets loud.

To all the mothers, grandmothers, stepmoms, and mother figures who inspire leadership through love every single day, thank you. Your impact reaches farther than you know.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Preferred Speakers 💚

What does it look like when resilience outruns every limitation placed in front of it? Meet Patrick “Blake” Leeper. 💥

Born without legs due to a congenital birth defect, Blake didn’t even begin racing until 2010. Just one year later, he earned his first international medal at the Parapan American Games, and he hasn’t slowed down since.

🏅 8-time Paralympic Track & Field international medalist
🥇 1 Gold Medal
🥈 6 Silver Medals
🥉 1 Bronze Medal
⚡ World Record Holder
🏅 3-time American Record Holder

And his story goes far beyond the track.

As a keynote speaker, Patrick “Blake” Leeper shares powerful lessons on perseverance, mindset, overcoming adversity, and chasing goals that others say are impossible. His story leaves audiences inspired, motivated, and ready to push past their own limits.

Connect with us today and bring a speaker to your next event who proves that impossible is just a starting line.

Demographics tell you who people are.
David Allison shows you why they care.

After years of working with major brands, he saw the shift. Age, gender, income… they don’t drive behavior the way they used to. Values do. That insight led to the Valuegraphics Project, now backed by nearly a million surveys across 152 languages.

His keynotes flip the script. Real data, real insight, and a fresh way to connect with people that actually works.

If you want your audience to think differently and act with purpose, David delivers.
