Kelly Walker's life was spiraling downward after battling twelve years of worsening depression. Medications had failed her, leaving her feeling like "a zombie" who was "not living, just not dying." After losing her job, she found herself questioning her very purpose, thinking her family might be better off without her.
Then came the reluctant acceptance of an invitation to what was billed as a "life-changing seminar." Despite her initial disgust at the thought of attending such a positive event while in her depressed state, something pushed her to go. That decision would completely transform her trajectory, leading her into an unexpected career as a public speaking coach—despite being so terrified of public speaking that she once literally ran away when asked to speak.
The power in Kelly's story lies in her vulnerability and courage. She takes us through the remarkable moment when she found herself volunteering for a speaking competition, then spending ten minutes in a bathroom stall arguing with herself about whether to follow through. When she finally committed by signing up, she broke down crying so hard the event organizer thought she might need medical attention. Yet a month later, she returned, delivered her speech, and won the competition.
From this foundation, Kelly developed "The Drive-Thru Method of Manifesting"—a six-step formula that parallels ordering fast food and provides a framework for achieving goals. Unlike traditional approaches, her method emphasizes gratitude and divine timing rather than rigid deadlines. This became the basis for her bestselling book and a podcast that ranked in the top 5% globally.
Today, Kelly hosts "speaking cruises" where she takes people "to the middle of the ocean and makes them face the world's biggest fear for a whole week." Her favorite activities include unique connection exercises like the "mousetrap challenge," where blindfolded participants must navigate across a room filled with set mousetraps, guided only by teammates.
Want to discover your own message and find the courage to share it? Kelly's comprehensive speaker workbook guides you through identifying powerful stories from your life and structuring them into an impactful speech. As she powerfully reminds us, "If you feel the stirrings to do something, stop fighting it... life is short."
