Janet Perez Eckles, international speaker and award-winning author, helping thousands build their resilience to rise above today’s turmoil, conquer stress, overcome adversity, and empower your team to become truly unstoppable.

Janet’s total blindness didn’t stop her, nor the violent murder of her son or death of her marriage. Instead, she soared victoriously on the wings of resilience. This powerful example of how to defy all odds and embrace faith, perseverance, and courage weave through her five award-winning books and through her nearly 600 keynote presentations to English and Spanish-speaking audiences worldwide.

Most speakers have a story, but very few deliver such a poignant and empowering message that will ignite a passion in your team to apply the tools and master their own resilience. She accomplishes this through her Latina flair and contagious joy, along with a blend of unexpected humor, compelling stories, fresh insights, and wisdom. Each one not only inspires but touches the heart, transforms mindsets, and empowers your team to view adversity not as a barrier, but as the catalyst that makes them stronger and more determined.

Janet considers it a privilege to work with you and serve as the keynote speaker for your next event.

“All I can say is that Janet’s presentation took my breath away. I was impacted, refreshed and left with tools to apply right now!” – Bill Reese, Vice President of IHeartMedia Sales

The perfect guide to peace.

I settled in the back seat of an Uber car the other day, folded my white cane and stuffed it in my bag. As I usually do, I began a conversation with the driver. As expected, we became friends.

I learned this adventure can take from 5 months to 10 years to complete. Gulp. But with his guide’s help, the hike is doable. In it, he details...read more
