MEET MIKE

one hour can change everything

Mike Hall brings over two decades of experience working directly with youth. He brings to the stage over 3 decades of experience in the trenches of mentoring, coaching, and listening. His sessions don’t rely on hype or clichés. Instead, he offers sharp insight, real connection, and practical direction to help students think deeper, act with purpose, and change how they show up in the world.

Every KID needs to be SHOWN WHY they matter & belong.

Before students care what you know, they need to know you care. Mike’s message reaches the room because it’s built on trust, relatability, and honesty. His blend of humor, storytelling, and vulnerability lowers defenses and opens ears, making space for students to actually hear what matters. Mike speaks from a place of unapologetic truth, as he’s been doing for his entire life.

What sets Mike apart isn’t just how he connects; it’s what he leaves behind. His speeches go beyond motivation, giving students simple, memorable tools they can actually use to make better choices, build stronger relationships, and live a life they’re proud of long after the applause fades.

BOOKS MIKE’s READ LATELY

A STUDENT OF STUDENTS

Mike’s always learning. Because reaching students takes more than stories. It takes a real understanding of how they think, what they face, and what actually gets through.

That’s why his talks are rooted in both experience and ongoing study. He stays current so every message speaks to what students are really going through, not what adults assume they need.
