Kevin Conroy Smith motivates audiences across the nation on how to achieve success on their own terms; by defining who they are and staying true to themselves. Kevin is a Chicago-based entrepreneur that has been featured in a #1 Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestseller.

Casey Snyder grew up in a town of less than 300 people. So he decided to leave home for the big city where he built countless relationships with other motivated individuals. Through hardwork Casey created an international million dollar enterprise, retired from corporate America and now teaches life skills such as listening, communication and how to develop life-long relationships.
