Shay's story and presentation of the same is not only motivational, inspiring, or courageous, but also helps us to realize just how much we can do if we set our minds to it!

We had the pleasure of having Shay tell his remarkable story to our global sales staff at our annual meeting. He was knowledgeable, fun and most importantly an inspiration to our team. I would recommend organizations of all types should consider Shay as a speaker. His story of overcoming challenges and balancing work, family and Ironman training is a great lesson.

Shay gave a powerful and inspiring talk at the Catholic Business League meeting in Nashville. I would encourage business owners and conference directors to hire Shay to motivate their employees/participants. Shay has a strong message that is given with humor and grace. The CBL looks forward to having Shay back soon!

Shay Eskew spoke at our Summer Institute in July 2018. He had the audience captivated from the minute he started speaking. He was entertaining, sincere, and left us all inspired. He was our highest rated speaker of the conference and the feedback from our attendees was that they wished he had more time to talk to the group. We may have to have him come back and speak again. He challenged us all to live a better life and live it to the fullest and he did it with humor and charisma. Thank you Shay for sharing your unique, incredible story.

Shay spoke at one my leadership retreats earlier this year. He shared an incredible message of perseverance and optimism. He left us motivated and ready to 'embrace the suck'. Highly recommend Shay for groups of any size.

I've had the opportunity to attend a presentation by Shay twice now. They were both very inspiring and really made me realize that if you want something, no matter the circumstances, no matter the challenges, if you want it bad enough and are willing to work for it nothing, can stop you. This is a must attend presentation for everyone.
Timothy Moore, Chief Executive Officer - Marcam Associates
We had the pleasure of having Shay speak at our 2016 Leadership Conference, and he scored the highest rating of any internal and external presenter. He is a very engaging and motivational keynote speaker sharing his personal story and how he overcame some very huge obstacles life presented him after his burn incident. The audience was captivated by his humble and personal approach as well as humor throughout the 1.5-hour session. If your company is facing big opportunities, and you need someone to provide a reality check on how to look at challenges, Shay is your go-to guy. We would highly recommend Shay for any motivational speaking engagement.

Shay is a very inspiring individual who gave an incredible talk to our employees during our recent annual Employee Award's Banquet. It couldn't have been better timing for where we are in our journey as an organization. Shay was able to provide real-life experiences of facing adversity and how he overcame a challenge that life dealt him to become an incredible leader and great example for many facing obstacles in their personal and professional life. I would highly recommend Shay for any organization who is looking to take their organization to a higher level. His story is very powerful and will certainly have a positive impact on your organization.
