SLĀ Foundations Presents The Power of Storytelling is a podcast for young professionals to inspire youth through the power of storytelling. If you are interested in sharing your story, including the hardships you had to overcome to achieve success (relevant to expectation), then our long-format podcast may be for you.

We will be taking an earnest, introspective look into your life, digging into your formidable early childhood and adolescence years, finding your way through early adulthood and achieving professional success, and the obstacles you have yet to overcome. The goal of the podcast is to not just inform students of the possibilities, but to provide relatable role models to inspire them to put forth the effort no matter what obstacles may stand in their way.

It’s hard to dream big when you’re not sure what’s out there. That’s why the SLĀ Speaker Series seeks young professionals from a broad range of fields to help students discover the many career paths that are possible for them. It’s important for us to showcase not just diversity of industry and role, but diversity in ethnicity and background. This enables us to inspire and serve as role models to the students. A single speaker has the power to inspire so many!

The speaker's specific objectives are:
1) educate students on corporate career opportunities.
2) inspire through sharing of their own story.
3) provide a professional network via a LinkedIn connection.

Speaking is a 90-minute commitment involving three components: the speaker’s story, a discussion activity and a student survey. Create an Opportunity Zone (OZ) account at https://oz.slafoundation.com/signup and find a local classroom to speak to today!
