Going for Your Dreams: Life Lessons from the American Idols

A Genuine Crowd Pleaser - on the Light Side Yet Highly Inspirational

As co-author of Chicken Soup for the American Idol Soul, the book that brought together the #1 show in television history and the #1 non-fiction book series in publishing history, Debra spent six months interviewing top 10 Idols from every season, as well as the behind-the-scenes crew, producers, directors, fans and judges.

In this presentation, which is an audience favorite, Debra shares never-before-told stories that the television cameras don't see: true, uplifting tales of obstacles overcome, lessons learned and lives changed forever. This talk not only touches the heart, but opens everyone to the unlimited possibilities in their own lives.

I immediately booked Debra for the LA Conscious Life Expo in February 2011 after hearing her at Grail Springs, Canada in June 2010. Although there were four other competing speakers during her time slot in LA, her room was packed to the brim with standing room only. Her first-hand stories about the Idols and judges had everyone riveted. The whole room was inspired beyond words as she led us on a delightful and interactive journey through the highs and lows of the world that is American Idol.
When the evaluations were in, Debra was definitely acknowledged as one of the Expo's indisputable favorites!
