Why Speaking Matters to Us
We don’t just talk — we connect. Whether it’s on stage, around a table, or across a microphone, we speak to move rooms and mobilize people. We’ve led nonprofits, launched companies, built teams, and made hard decisions — and we bring that lived experience into every talk.
Together or individually, we show up with presence, clarity, and story. Our goal isn’t performance. It’s transformation.
Speaking with Melissa Ice
Melissa speaks with compassion, conviction, and depth. She’s a keynote speaker who knows how to move a room — whether she’s addressing trauma-informed work, mobilizing churches, or calling young leaders to bold action. Her gift lies in making people care about what matters to God — and giving them practical ways to respond.

Topics We Cover Together:
Leading and launching as a couple
Taking risks while staying rooted in family and faith
