I'm Ed Squire, founder of Visible Kindness and MeTooWhatNow. I’m a keynote speaker, storyteller, and advocate for trauma recovery, emotional intelligence, and faith-driven motivation and leadership.

I spent decades helping Fortune 500 companies thrive — all while privately surviving deep trauma and PTSD and a lifetime of personal transformation.

I speak to audiences about the power of kindness, resilience, and living with truth in today’s divided world.

From keynote stages to intimate support groups, my story inspires audiences to live with courage, compassion, and clarity.

Why Faith Matters

Audiences I Serve

  • A renewed understanding of kindness as a leadership strength

  • Practical strategies for healing and personal growth

  • Real-world inspiration to live with resilience, compassion, and courage

My faith isn’t a side note — it’s the foundation of my life and message.

Through faith in Jesus Christ, I found the courage to heal, the strength to lead, and the love to serve others. It shapes every keynote, workshop, and conversation I deliver.

  • Corporate teams seeking compassionate leadership

  • Church and ministry groups seeking healing-centered messages

  • Men's groups overcoming trauma and rediscovering identity

  • Students and young adults preparing for a life of resilience and meaning

Real Story. Real Experience

From Tuxedo to Truth

In 1993, after speaking at numeous small events, I delivered my first keynote in front of 6,000 people wearing a tuxedo in Nashville TN, at the Opryland Hotel..

Today, I speak with heart and power about what it means to heal, lead, and live with motivation and kindness.

Today, my message is deeper — rooted in kindness, healing, and real transformation.

“From tuxedos to truth — every season marked and made whole by God.”
