Keynote Speaker & Performance Life Coach Travia Steward helps female leaders stop accepting the bare minimum and achieve their NEXT LEVEL goals.

If you’re constantly second-guessing decisions, people pleasing to make others happy, and seeking approval from others….you’re in the right place. 

MADE FOR MORE

I’m Travia Steward…….

WE ALL WANT TO REACH OUR NEXT LEVEL

But many heart-led female leaders struggle with truly trusting themselves to get there.

The idea of unlocking your full potential and stepping into greater success is exciting, yet it can feel overwhelming and out of reach when self-trust is missing.

Before becoming a speaker and life coach, I was a theatre teacher who also battled insecurities, self-doubt, and feelings of inadequacy. It wasn’t until I learned how to truly embrace my authentic self that transformed my life and my confidence.

Leaders today are pulled in so many directions, often doubting whether they’re on the right path or capable of achieving the goals they’ve set for themselves. It’s easy to get discouraged, questioning whether you’ll ever reach the level of success you know you’re meant for.

Even as high achievers, you may find yourself second-guessing decisions, feeling unsure if you have what it takes to move forward. Yet deep inside, you know there’s more you want to offer the world and greater heights you’re destined to reach—if only you could fully trust in your ability to make it happen.

Speaking & Workshop Topics

  • Made for More

    "Made for More" is an inspirational and empowering speech that delves into the concept that every individual possesses untapped potential and a greater purpose in life. This engaging presentation encourages the audience to explore their passions, challenge their limits, and strive for personal and professional growth. Through real-life lesson, motivational stories, and practical advice, Travia guides listeners on a journey to stop settling and breakthrough their own ceilings. This speech aims to motivate and inspire individuals to unlock their full potential to create a life they love.

  • Leading with Confidence

    Confidence is a critical component of strong leadership. When employees in leadership positions Lead with Confidence, they are able to make clearer decisions, increase their efficiency, improve team dynamics, courageously speak up, and communicate with clarity, which increases overall results.

    In this interactive workshop, participants will be given tools to overcome fear and self-doubt so they are more assertive and confident in their roles in the workplace. They will learn how to unlock a more confident version of themselves which helps them to thrive at a higher level.

  • Leading instead of Pleasing

    Many leaders unknowingly fall into the trap of trying to please others, sacrificing their vision and authentic leadership in the process. In this workshop, I help leaders break free from the trap of people-pleasing and reclaim their authentic leadership style. Participants will discover how leading with clarity strengthens relationships, improves decision-making, and creates lasting success. This workshop is for leaders ready to step into their power and lead in a way that aligns with their true selves while driving results and making a lasting impact.

  • Lead without saying a word - The Art of Nonverbal Communication

    If you want to truly connect and get others on board-whether it's your colleagues, leaders, friends, or family-communication is key. it's not just about what you say. In fact, research shows that 55% of communication is nonverbal, and in just a 30-minute conversation, two people will exchange over 800 nonverbal cues. In this dynamic and engaging 1/2 day workshop, participants will learn the power of body language and ways to improve communication and clarity.

Let's talk about how I can help and your team

‘Captivating, Inspiring, & Infectious’

  • I have been a business professional for over 30 years, and never have I experienced a more personalized, motivating and truly compelling session.  The “Made for More” session was an incredible experience that Travia curated to meet the unique needs of my leadership team to encourage new thinking about our life journey and how to navigate ahead with purpose.  The session really makes you think about what you are made of, what you want in life both personally and professionally, and pivots your mind to not allow barriers of uncertainty to stand in your way of becoming who you want to be.  My team and I are genuinely transformed because of the session and the tools we were equipped with to forge ahead to a more positive place in our lives.  I highly recommend this session for anyone who wants to be…and do MORE to be self-fulfilled.

  • On behalf of the National Board of Directors I want to thank you again for your inspiring, meaningful message you gave to all of us at our Conference last week.  Your topic was onspot to a group of people who daily deal with so much.  As you can read from the reviews it was well received and impactful.  You delivered your message with conviction, honesty and self worth.  In the field of social service we often meet those who are searching for that one person who will listen and hear them.  You gave us tools to help them find their power and take it back.  On a personal note you reminded me that someone had listened, supported and encouraged me to grow in and with NEW PATHS, something I am very thankful for.  I wish you well in your path of helping others.  You are blessed to have that touch of hearing others and giving back.  Thank you for spending time with us.
