Speaking Presentations
I am the founder of Honestly Vaughn, an author and an Identity Practitioner. I encourage people to blow up their life, make a huge change, and do it completely messy.
My purpose is to help people understand that they already have what it takes. I've been in the legal field, rebuilt my own life from the ground up, and I bring that experience into every room I walk into. Leadership, transition, and personal development aren't just topics I talk about.
They're the work I've lived.
Blow Up Your Life:
The Business of Starting Over ™
Starting over sounds exciting until you're the one who has to do it.
Whether it's leaving a relationship, changing careers, rebuilding financially, or walking away from a life that no longer fits, reinvention takes more than courage. It takes decisions, strategy, resourcefulness, and a willingness to move forward before everything is figured out.
In this candid, humorous, and practical keynote, Yvonne Rodgers challenges women to rethink what starting over really requires. Drawing from personal experience and lessons in entrepreneurship, she explores how to take ownership of major life transitions, navigate uncertainty, and begin building a future on your own terms.
Attendees will leave with a fresh perspective on change and practical ways to identify their next move, make bold decisions, and take action even when the process gets messy.
Because starting over is personal, but making it work is a business.
Claim It! Creating the Future You Came For
You've worked hard to get here. You've overcome obstacles, navigated challenges, and accomplished things you once weren't sure were possible. But what happens when the structure you've relied on disappears and the next chapter is entirely yours to create?
In this engaging, empowering, and practical keynote workshop, Yvonne Rodgers challenges students to recognize how far they've come, embrace the changes ahead, and take ownership of what comes next. Through reflection, honest conversation, and actionable strategies, participants discover how to turn their experiences into strengths, identify resources and opportunities around them, and create their own structure when there's no longer a clear roadmap.
Participants will walk away with:
-
A clear picture of what you've already survived, built, and earned, including strengths you didn't even know were strengths.
-
Real tools for navigating life beyond college and building your own structure when the old one disappears.
-
One bold, practical commitment you make before you leave the room, because you didn't come this far to just stand at the edge.
Because you've already done the work to get here. Now it's time to claim the future you came for.
