About
I am passionate about storytelling and encouraging authors and cancer survivors to get up and live!
Where Are Your Feet?
Staying in the moment is one of the hardest things to do in life. When you are diagnosed with a life threatening illness, have a devastating car accident or lose a job it can seem like the road ahead is impossible. Winston Churchill said, "If you are going through hell keep going. " This is how Angelique L'Amour dealt with her cancer diagnosis, by staying in the moment and continuing to move forward. Asking the question, "Where are your feet?" kept her grounded. Speaking to your group she will share her experience, strength and method for dealing with what is next in your life even when it seems impossible.
Transitions: Journey to an Engaging and Fulfilling life
Moments of transition truly become opportunities. For NY Times Bestselling author, Angelique L’Amour even when those times of transition seemed dark, inevitably, they led her to light. Relying on her optimistic spirit and faith Angelique believes there is always light to be found. The loss of 3 friends when she was 18, her father when she was 24, several miscarriages in the journey to have children and a chance encounter with a woman speaker who asked a very pertinent question all led Angelique to the woman she is today. After being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009, she did what she had to do to survive. Raising two young girls with her husband life was busy and she managed to keep it all going without overwhelming her children with her cancer experience. Even when times seemed very dark and scary and she wondered how many times the finish line would move she managed to keep her head above water. Learn how times of transition lead you to new opportunities.
Creating Compelling Characters
As a reader we connect to who a character is. Their stories can take any number of different paths but unless we connect with who they are, how they make their decisions and what those decisions are we aren’t interested in their story. Join me as I lead your group on a development journey and we discover how to build compelling characters that your audience will connect with. Fiction, Creative non-fiction and Business leaders alike will learn what to develop and what to take away to engage their audience and customers. Available in workshop or lecture format.
Your perspective matters!
