One key to creating a thriving speaking business is knowing your identity and knowing what you bring to the table as a speaker. Our guest is an expert at helping others know themselves and what they have to offer. Rocky Garza is a speaker and coach whose focus is on how our identities play into the roles and positions we fill.
