This program powerfully dispels the notion that there will always be a tomorrow in which we can finish today’s unfinished business and moves individuals to work and live with intentionality.

Safety: Don’t Count on 2nd Chances
Can too much experience be a bad thing? Absolutely…if it leads to complacency. The highly experienced pilots of Flight 965 were lulled into a false sense of security that led to the deaths of 160 people. Mercedes’ one-of-a-kind safety presentation uses the factual account of the crash of Flight 965 as an anchor to drive home the dangers of complacency and the importance of situational awareness.

Thank you for sharing your tragic, yet inspiring story with us. It certainly helped us gain a new perspective on life. You helped us all realize that we can deal with change and that we should cherish this very special gift called life.
, Mark Litzler, CEO
I was very touched by Mercedes’ speech. I put myself in her place. I think this should be presented at every safety meeting. On a scale of 1 to 5, I would give her a 10!
, Sital Amin, Conference Participant
Mercedes was spectacular. One of the best commencement addresses I’ve heard in 30 years. I wish I’d kept track of all the glowing comments made about her speech.
, Dr. Dean Hubbard, President
The presentation was very uplifting and a unique way to show how actions in an everyday workplace could cause a serious event.
, Todd Frace, Participant
Words cannot describe how much your speech touched my heart. I have seen many inspirational speakers in my lifetime, but I have never been as moved as I was last night. It would be fair to say that Zig Ziglar and Tony Robbins have some competition. This world needs more people like you.

You are loved and admired.
It may be unspoken, but I promise it’s there.
The music makes it even more epic
Jennifer Lopez is 50 and Shakira is 43 and in totally unrelated news I’m going to the gym in the morning
Anytime there’s tweets or TV spots previewing #SuperBowl #ads I look away or change the channel. What’s the fun seeing them before tomorrow ? Make it stop to whoever thought it was a good idea to release them pre-game 🙅🏽♀️
