When they meet 25 new people, I give them a free
t-shirt that says, “I love my life”. I always end with
a call to action. If I'm able to have their e-mail or
contact information, I follow up with a newsletter
that says:
Ÿ Did you do your call to action?
Ÿ How can I support you?
Ÿ What have you applied and how have you
changed your life?
In that hour or hour-and-a-half time for speaking, I
cannot change someone's life. However, I can plant
some seeds, then follow up with an email or a
newsletter afterwards. If I keep watering and
nurturing those seeds, I know there will be change.
Many times, the worst Bully is the one between our
ears. I’ll also be speaking at No More Lives Lost in
Salt Lake City, UT in January. We are also going to
Ireland in June for a speaking engagement, so I am
excited to say I am now an International Speaker.

PMR: If you could change one thing about events,
what would it be and why?
JCM: Audience interaction. Many times, I'm sitting
in the audience and I'm the only one that is clapping
and cheering. I'm a very interactive audience
member. I have had many speakers ask if they can
hire me to just follow them around, because I get
everyone in the audience involved and engaged. As
a speaker, I invite my audience to clap, to interact
with one another and with me. I start asking
questions and I will have to remind them that
nodding their head yes, or shaking their head no is
giving me at least some type of interaction, but I
would really love verbal interaction, claps, and hand
raises.
PMR: What’s next for Jeanie?
JCM: I am currently writing a book geared towards
adults that are trying to Tame the Bully Between
Their Ears; because Bullies don't just live on the
playground anymore, they're everywhere.
