🌻 Cece Espeut - 2X Tedx Speaker Email & Phone Number

As 2-time TEDx speaker, 4-time Distinguished Toastmaster, Author and Master Photographer, I get to live out my dreams and my passions of traveling the world and meet fascinating people. My background, however, includes a criminal conviction for drug conspiracy (1997-1999) which takes some explaining. In 2012 I was granted clemency by then Florida Governor Rick Scott, and that changed my business forever. I went from being a photographer to Speaker - Author - Photographer. Many people had questions about the clemency process and how they could get their criminal records sealed, expunged or pardoned, so in addition to doing photography, I sat down and wrote a book called, The Florida Clemency Guide (2017).My experience with Toastmasters International allows me to consult with and speak to companies on how they could be more socially consciousness by giving 2nd chances to formerly incarcerated individuals, and my passion for photography allows me to do my first love, photographing weddings.I love happy endings. The romance and "Happily-Ever-After" stories from the weddings I photograph is not so far removed from the "Happily-Ever-After stories that occur when I help ex-offenders smoothly re-enter society. I know first-hand the difference it can make in a family's life, because I know the difference it made in mine.Now I get to do the two things I am passionate about. Working with socially responsible corporations that hire ex-offenders, and permanently sealing the joy that weddings offer. Whether working as an executive board member on the Broward County ReEntry Coalition, or serving as the head chairperson for the Television Production Program at McFatter Technical college, I have come a long way from being known as the "worst server" at a local restaurant.Today I get to help others. And that is my true life passion.Call me to speak at your next event or association meeting. My favorite topics are, "How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome" and "How to Tell a Story" which is a fantastic tool for companies who are looking to connect with their customers and increase sales.Reach me at Espeut.cece@gmail.com or call me 954.478.5109.
