We need to grow our pipeline in the next 6 months, referrals and networking is not enough anymore for us to stay in business" "We just got 3 big clients this year and we need to ramp up fast on new talents, we don't want to use a headhunter because their fees are too high and we don't have time or a team in-house to recruite or vet new candidates" "We know our audience is on LinkedIn. We have been thinking about doing some advertising but we are not sure where to start" Each one of these scenarios, we have been able to work with our clients to help them reach their goals.

Hello! My name is Rayann James. I am a mother of three beautiful children, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. I was born in the island of Trinidad and Tobago. I relocated to New York at a young age of ten years old. I went to Queens Borough Community College, then transferred to University of Phoenix. I am currently in school obtaining my Bachelors/Masters in Theology. I am an ordained Elder of the gospel and a member of True Worship Church of Christ. I started a company where I offer spiritual life coaching for students, families, teachers, and/or leaders. I established Messages Thru Rain Drops LLC in New York City in 2017. However, I was able to work for more than 10 years in the education industry and provide services as a motivational speaker and life coach to many families along with teachers. My business is unique because I believe that every school should have a spiritual coach – other than the person already in the building – to help with personal issues. The biggest struggle I see today is individuals trying to balance work and life. I believe we have broken teachers teaching broken children, and the entire school needs a "new" intervention strategy to rebuild culture, climate and communication. When issues as mentioned is evident it can cause more damage for everyone. Employees will then become ineffective in their work ethics, grades, classroom management or family life. Not to mention the students will be the ones to feel the impact the most. I coach with judging but my intention is to restore. I'm thrilled that you will be calling me soon to do business with you and your company. In advance, I thank you! May God continue to bless, guide and protect you. Though things may seem hard or impossible, know with God anything is possible! I am the speaker you're looking for! I have the passion to see people live their best life..stress free!

I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania. Mixed race and working class. Depression ran on both sides of the family. I was a nice kid. I had a good heart. My father was dark and brooding and sometimes abusive. It messed me up. By 11, I was deeply angry. Home was miserable. As I grew up, I poured myself into everything. Everything gave me an excuse not to be at home and a chance to prove myself. I became obsessed with proving myself. I got into Cornell but I dropped out. I was too poor and too messed up. I moved to California and wound up working construction and sleeping in my car. I hit rock bottom, became depressed and then suicidal. I got some antidepressants and they helped, but then I couldn't afford to get more. So a girl who loved me gave me hers. I got back into Cornell. I studied with the Pulitzer Prize winning historian Michael Kammen, who became a friend and mentor. I graduated from Cornell Phi Beta Kappa, turned down high paying jobs, and went to teach high school English in inner city Baltimore. I broke up riots, got cut, got maced, was on the news, fought constantly with my principal (who in my view was immoral and incompetent), and ultimately got thrown out of my first school (the most violent school in Baltimore) and transferred across town. I went to law school at Georgetown. I was poor, worked a bunch of odd jobs, and barely went to class. Whenever I ran out of money or food, I went to whatever functions or receptions they had on campus. I made law review. I graduated. I went to work at Boies, Schiller & Flexner with some of the most brilliant lawyers practicing law today. I left Boies, started my own law firm, and went broke in short order. I moved into a crappy little apartment and put my truck up for sale. I applied for other jobs. But in the end, I hung on just enough and started to build. I did some big cases, but the most important work I did was represent poor people against bogus non-compete agreements. Factory workers. Janitors. Security guards. Interns. I went to bat for these people. For free. To protect them from being abused and exploited. I called it modern day slavery and indentured servitude. That offended lots of powerful people. I made lots of enemies. But I started a national movement against non-compete abuse. It's a modern day civil rights movement. I wound up on PBS News Hour, in the New York Times, Bloomberg, FundFire, Law360, and more. Then the tv networks started calling. Vice News. People from Stars. Meanwhile, I was speaking all over the place. Cornell. Georgetown. National Urban League. Trayvon Martin Foundation. And blogging on LinkedIn, which apparently took off because I'm brutally honest in a world full of liars. I met the love of my life. Healed all the hurt and hate that I had carried for 30 years. Forgave everything. Stacked nearly enough money to walk away from the law game. I'm happy. I'm whole. And I'm still uncompromised.

Tiffany Rose Goodyear started her journey to become The Sentologist in Washington, DC. After achieving a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy and Political Science, she moved to the nation’s capital to work with a non-profit organization, then moved on to become lobbyist. Tiffany was ready for a change of pace, and took some time to pursue her interest in marketing by joining a boutique advertising agency. These various experiences inspired her to learn more about how strategic communication can motivate people to act; whether that’s by voting, purchasing or making other decisions. Her drive for knowledge led her to pursue her Masters of Science degree in Advertising Management at the University of Denver, in her home state of Colorado. During school she founded a dessert catering company. Using her own company as a case study for all that she was learning in the classroom, Tiffany was able to transform a lifelong passion for baking and pastry arts from being just a hobby, into a successful business concept. Upon graduation, she decided to stay in Denver and focus on her new business. Over the next few years, the company evolved into a full-service dessert catering company specializing in events and corporate gifts. She found herself not only interested in her clients’ culinary needs, but also into the underlying messages communicated through such gifts and events. She began asking her clients why they were purchasing a corporate gift or hosting an event and who was the target audience they were reaching? What message were they trying to convey? What as the overall goal of purchasing these specific items for this particular event? She would then incorporate all of these details into their personalized food choices, and consider the subliminal message when organizing menus, presentations, and the overall theme of the culinary display.Tiffany was time and time again able to successfully (and effectively) capture their desired message, highlight their personal brand, and tell the customer’s individuals story through a full sensory event. Moving beyond just desserts, Tiffany Goodyear now specializes in finding unique solutions for clients looking to rise above the clutter of audio and visual branding by adding an additional effect of touch, taste, smell, or a combination of the three senses, to a marketing communications program. The approach has gained popularity with her corporate and non-profit clients from the dessert industry. She now works with businesses and agencies to incorporate an overall sensory experience into their communications strategy.
