Your Story Matters

Grades 6-12 (65 mins)

Cory teaches students resilience and tools to overcome challenges and pursue their dreams, while creating a positive school culture.

Program Description

Studies show that suicide among youth is at an all-time high. Teens are struggling to find a sense of belonging. Now, more than ever, it is so vitally important to empower and encourage our youth to rise above their current circumstances. Your students will leave this assembly with a renewed self-image and the resilience to handle adversity and bullying. They will be empowered to take responsibility for the solution instead of focusing on the problem.
This program WILL create a more positive and caring culture.

"I thought your speech would be boring but I came out crying instead. Thanks for coming and I hope you can come here again!"​

High School Student
"I had the privilege of hearing Cory speak to over 3000 high school students. He speaks to students on their level and relates to them by understanding the pressures of high school, appearances, family relationships, etc. Students heard the message from Cory and their peers that they do matter. Cory shows genuine passion about seeing students overcome the struggles they're facing and knowing that they matter. I highly recommend Cory to any organization that is looking for a positive impact."

"Cory had our students' attention throughout his entire presentation which is not an easy feat. I heard more positive feedback from students about the event than any speaker we've had. Cory really made an impact on Princeton High School."

"Great message and great job of tuning in to the students. You had them on the edge of their seats... IT WAS VERY POWERFUL!"​
Mable Canton Schools​
"Cory was PHENOMENAL! He just spoke to our middle school kids and the impact he made was HUGE! We've had guest speakers before but he is by far the best! He delivered the message in a way that connected with the kids and that isn't always the case. If you have the chance to have Cory come talk in your school or community I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!"​
