Proven Track Record with Children and Parents (Video)

As a parent, you are now probably asking “Before I try engaging in such important conversations with my child, how do I know this information is going to work? Where’s the proof?” In this video, I will share real life results.

You will learn of:  Teenagers who previously didn’t engage with their parents and NOW are openly sharing with Mom and Dad.  I will share specific examples from families where Mom and Dad experienced an “Aha” moment with their daughter.  Getting children to WANT to discuss dating with you as parents is HUGE.

Cleveland High school students talk consent & dating

A big THANKS goes out to ALL the students yesterday in Cleveland high schools who made Valentine’s Day special for all the right reasons (respect and caring for all people).

Watch the video below and LEAVE YOUR FEEDBACK in the Comments Section!!

P.S.  Remember to LEAVE YOUR FEEDBACK in the Comments Section!!

College Students ARE Taking Action

How much fun is getting students to make positive statements about consent?  In the past 3 weeks of our Fall “Can I Kiss You?” Tour, we have had a record number of audiences choose to make videos for YouTube on Asking First.  NOTE: The university officials in attendance ALWAYS have the final say on what we film for representing their campus. Here is a quick examples:

In addition to spreading the word via video, students typically love fun t-shirts with messages they believe in.  As evidence, a record number of students are purchasing the NEW “Can I Kiss You?” and “Want Some Action?” T-shirts at the events.  The demand has been so high that shipments have had to been sent afterward to meet the demand.  Students are telling us they love the look AND the message.

Often students find opening up and sharing with others to be difficult and/or uncomfortable.  For this reason, we have been hearing that the “Action Pad” Post-It notes (the handout every student receives when entering the “Can I Kiss You?” program – anyone can purchase the Action Pads for their campus) have been a big hit.  They enable students to SHARE positive messages through a simple post-it note.  Southern Utah University reported that their Resident Assistants have been seeing the Action Pads being used throughout the hallways of their residence halls – to promote a more caring atmosphere for everyone.

Evaluate all of the above and what you realize is STUDENTS ARE TAKING ACTION in their own lives and to spread the message into the lives of others.  Provide students fun resources for creating change and they will be happy to help make a positive difference.

P.S. College students recently contacted me to share they’ve recorded a song about “Can I Kiss You?” and are going into a professional studio to record it!!  Once the song is available, we will let you know ASAP.

Bearcats Love Cheri

As you may know, the person who inspired me to want to speak out originally back in the early 90s was my sister Cheri, an amazing survivor. Tonight, a campus ASKED to honor Cheri in a video statement.  Northwest Missouri State University students unanimously voted to have the following video filmed.  I was moved and thrilled to be able to put a video on YouTube with such a special message to share with the world. Please watch the video below and then Leave a Comment:

Keuka goes BIG

Keuka College has me speak to their incoming students each year in the Chapel which is a beautiful location. The seating goes far back and so last night Keuka provided a video screen upfront showing a closeup of the show. The results?

The students in the back were as equally engaged as those in the front row! Great Job to Jen and everyone at Keuka who also raised money for their local crisis center through the sales of “Can I Kiss You?” shirts and books.

INSURING A GREAT ASSEMBLY FOR YOUR SCHOOL:

One of the biggest fears many middle schools and high schools have is “How can we know this speaker is going to capture our students attention AND do so appropriately while giving them needed tools for making a difference?”  The answer is:  You need an expert with a proven track record of excellence with schools of all sizes, demographics, and cultures.  You require a quick thinking professional who is gifted at reacting specifically to your students’ reactions and comments.

Your presentation to the two junior highs: 500 and 440 teens, were outstanding.  These teens were rowdy audiences, but you handled them expertly, got and held their attention and really made an impact.  Even the School Principals who are somewhat conservative were very impressed.
Anne Smith, RN, BSN, Yuma County Public Health Services District (AZ)

It has been 3 months since you presented your ‘Can I Kiss You?‘ Program to high school students, and separately to parents, in our communities of Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, Illinois.  To my surprise, and immense satisifaction, people are still talking about it!

…three students at a local coffee shop were overheard recently, two full months after your visit, discussing the idea of ‘asking’ that had been presented by ‘that dude we heard at school in the Fall.

Mike Domitrz brought his powerful presentation to Mahnomen, Wauban and Circle of Life Schoos on the White Earth Ojibwe Nation and to an Alternative Learning Center near the reservation reaching 870 students…His method of not putting words into their mouths but instead using their words and language was absolutely incredible

It is important to recognize that never before has there been a National Speaker who has ever promised our youth that he would respond to their emails within 24 hours. His commitment to make effective changes in the lives of our youth is to be commended.”
Lisa Brunner, Executive Director, Community Resource Alliance Tribal Alliance (MN)

To be an effective and powerful educator, you need to always be learning new approaches and concepts of working with people of all ages (students, staff, and parents).  Yes, the educator needs to be a STUDENT.  The #1 source for teaching better speaking techniques and presentation skills is the National Speakers Association (NSA) – the professional trade organization for speakers around the world.
