I started in IT, solving systems problems and streamlining workflows. But the deeper I went, the more I saw that communication (not just software) is what truly transforms teams. When I stepped into leadership, I realised: 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘪𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘦. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵. 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘪𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. I studied speaking, emotional intelligence, NLP, and facilitation. I went from the quiet girl who avoided conflict… to a coach, speaker, and movement-builder helping others find their voice too. Now, I’m on a mission to redefine confidence and leadership, so every voice feels safe, seen, and strong. If you want to lead with clarity, speak with impact, and build trust that lasts, you’re in the right place.

Erin Jones-Wesley doesn't fit neatly into any one box — and that's exactly the point. She is a media personality, creator, podcast host, speaker, and founder of EJW Media. She holds an MFA from the American Film Institute Conservatory and a BA from California State University, Long Beach, and she was the first woman in her family to earn either degree. But her story didn't start in a classroom or a writers' room. It started on a pitcher's mound. Erin earned a full athletic scholarship to Cal State Long Beach, where she became a Division I NCAA softball pitcher, broke program records that still stand today — 728 strikeouts, 84 wins, and 148 appearances — and was later inducted into the university's Athletics Hall of Fame. She went on to play professionally, earning a bronze medal on the international stage and a platform as an ESPN color analyst. That career taught her everything Hollywood later confirmed: that excellence is a habit, that preparation is the only shortcut, and that the people who last are the ones who do the work before anyone is watching. When Erin pivoted to entertainment, she brought that same discipline with her. She built her way into Hollywood with no industry connections — just an AFI recommendation from a former studio head and an unwavering belief that she belonged in the room. At AFI, she didn't just earn her MFA. She also competed as Miss Santa Monica USA, placing 2nd Runner Up at Miss California USA in January 2020 — a detail that tells you everything you need to know about how Erin moves through the world: fully, and on multiple fronts at once. She became a Creative Executive at Lionsgate, where she developed an eclectic and ambitious slate of projects: the psychological thriller The Housemaid, the Michael Jackson biopic Michael, the star-studded Another Simple Favor, and Now You See Me Now You Don't, among others. She understood early that the best stories don't just entertain — they move people, shift culture, and leave something behind. Along the way, she co-founded The 42 Initiative, a nonprofit that raised over $1 million and brought Little League baseball back to Inglewood — because access to the game that shaped her should never be a privilege. In 2025, Erin made a deliberate choice to leave the traditional Hollywood ladder and build something entirely her own. Today, EJW Media reaches over 3 million people monthly across TikTok and Instagram, with an audience of adults ages 18 to 44 who come for the pop culture commentary and stay for the perspective. Warm, witty, and deeply informed, Erin covers film, television, reality TV, the creator economy, and the cultural moments that matter — the way you would with your most plugged-in friend. She co-hosts Like Us Pod, a RHOBH recap podcast with her sister Danielle, and has appeared as a guest on Bravo While Black, Breaking Into Hollywood with James Lott, and The Bravo Investigator. She has spoken at Comic-Con panels, film industry events, high school career days, and softball opening ceremonies, carrying the same message to every room: the ladder is real, the climb is worth it, and you don't have to look like anyone who came before you to reach the top. Erin Jones-Wesley is what happens when a Hall of Fame pitcher, a Hollywood insider, and a natural-born storyteller decide to stop waiting for permission.

Josh Ball has spent over two decades making decisions that couldn't wait and couldn't be wrong. As Senior Director of Safety & Security for the Kansas City Chiefs, Josh is responsible for protecting more than 75,000 fans on gameday. He currently serves on the FIFA World Cup 2026 security planning teams and leads counter-UAS working groups alongside FAA representatives — work that puts him at the intersection of emerging threats and real-time decision-making. Before the NFL, Josh served as a Chief of Police, a firefighter, and Head of Security for the Kentucky Derby, one of the most complex single-day security operations in the world. That career path didn't just build his résumé. It built a leadership philosophy forged under pressure: that clarity, preparation, and a relentless "Fighting for Yes" mindset are what separate organizations that survive a crisis from those that lead through one. Today, Josh brings that philosophy to corporate stages, leadership teams, and conferences nationwide. His audiences leave with more than inspiration — they leave with frameworks they can implement before they walk back into the building. Josh is also the creator of the First Responder Transition Toolkit, a comprehensive system helping law enforcement officers, firefighters, and EMTs translate their public service experience into high-performing private sector careers. When he's not protecting fans on gameday or planning security for the world's largest sporting event, Josh is helping leaders discover what they're actually capable of when the stakes are real.

International Motivational Speaker | Corporate Keynote Specialist | The Disruption Coach
India
Simerjeet Singh does not teach change from a textbook. He teaches it from a life repeatedly rebuilt by choice. Before becoming a globally sought-after keynote speaker on leadership, change, innovation, growth mindset and organizational transformation, Simerjeet spent eight years building an international hospitality career across Australia, the United States, India, Dubai and the United Kingdom. Then, at 27, he walked away from the predictable path, returned to India and began again. There was no inherited platform, network or ready-made profession waiting for him. So he built one. Known globally as The Disruption Coach, Simerjeet has spent nearly two decades helping leaders, teams and organizations rethink what is possible. He has worked with more than 500 organizations and addressed audiences representing over 80 nationalities across India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Australia and North America. His clients include Deloitte, Mercer, Oracle, Siemens, ADP, Qualcomm, Toyota, Volvo, Pfizer, Novartis, Novo Nordisk and IHG Hotels & Resorts, among many others. From innovation conferences in Las Vegas and leadership gatherings in the Gulf to packed auditoriums in Singapore and senior executive meetings in India, his work travels easily across industries, cultures and levels of leadership. His address may be in Jalandhar, Punjab. His stage rarely is. By building an international speaking business from a Tier-2 Indian city, Simerjeet has become a living example of the ideas he shares: think differently, question inherited assumptions, use technology intelligently and design success around your values rather than somebody else’s definition of status. His influence extends far beyond the conference stage. His videos have collectively crossed 100 million views, his YouTube community exceeds 1.7 million subscribers, and his recent short-form content on Facebook and Instagram has generated more than four million views. He is a three-time TEDx speaker and has been invited four times to address international youth and leadership gatherings at the United Nations ESCAP Centre in Bangkok. But numbers tell only part of the story. Simerjeet’s keynotes are not lectures with motivational decoration. They are carefully designed human experiences combining business insight, lived experience, storytelling, humour, poetry, metaphors, reflection, movement, music, meditation and audience participation. Whether he has 15 minutes or 90, his aim is not merely to make people feel better. It is to help them see differently, and act differently. His most requested programmes explore embracing change, transformational leadership, innovation mindset, growth mindset, future readiness, collaboration, organizational culture and human leadership in the age of AI. He helps organizations confront the questions that strategies alone cannot answer: How do we change before circumstances force us to? How do we make innovation everybody’s responsibility? How do leaders create ownership rather than compliance? How do human beings remain relevant as technology becomes more powerful? Featured by leading business publications and speaker platforms among India’s top motivational speakers and most in-demand keynote speakers for corporate events, Simerjeet brings something increasingly rare to the stage: credibility without stiffness, depth without complexity and energy without theatrics. He does not merely ask audiences to follow their highest calling. His life is evidence that it can be done—and that a career built around one’s deepest talents can also become commercially successful, globally relevant and profoundly useful. His central message is simple: Do not wait for disruption. Reinvent before you have to; and lead change before change leads you.
