Marty McDonald Speaking Topics

  • Audacious Vision: Daring to Dream Bigger and Do More

    An audacious vision is more than just a dream -- it’s a bold, fearless commitment to seeing beyond what exists today and stepping into the extraordinary. It requires belief, bold action, and resilience to push through fear and obstacles. This conversation will challenge the audience to redefine what’s possible for their lives, careers, and impact on the world.

    Through personal storytelling, thought-provoking questions, and real-life examples, this keynote will inspire attendees to adopt an audacious mindset—one that doesn’t wait for permission but instead creates new possibilities through courage and persistence.

    Key Takeaways:

    Belief: See Beyond Your Current Reality

    Your vision must be bigger than your fears—before anyone else believes in it, YOU have to. The most audacious people in history started with a vision no one else could see.

    Challenge: What is the biggest vision you have for your life? And do you truly believe it’s possible?

    Bold Action: Move Even When You’re Scared

    Fear is a constant companion on the road to audacious success—move anyway. Taking bold, imperfect steps is what separates dreamers from doers. Challenge: What is one fearless move you can make this week toward your vision?

    Resilience: Stay Committed When It Gets Hard

    The most successful people aren’t the most talented—they’re the most relentless. Every setback is a setup for a comeback—reframe obstacles as part of your story. Challenge: What’s one challenge you’re facing now, and how can you turn it into an opportunity?

  • Getting Your Bag (Bold, Audacious Goals)

    This keynote is about breaking through fear, playing big, and making bold moves toward your goals. Getting your B.A.G. isn’t just about money—it’s about securing your vision, your impact, and your future.

    A B.A.G. (Bold, Audacious Goal) is the kind of goal that stretches you, challenges you, and pushes you into the next level of success. It’s about thinking beyond limitations and taking action with fearless energy.

    This keynote will inspire attendees to:

    • Define their B.A.G. and own their ambition.
    • Overcome fear and self-doubt to move boldly toward success.
    • Take immediate, fearless action to secure their vision.

    Key Takeaways: How to Secure Your B.A.G.

    B – BELIEVE BIGGER (Your Mindset Determines Your Moves)

    Your mindset is the foundation of your B.A.G.—you have to believe it’s possible before anyone else does.

    Stop playing small. If your goal doesn’t scare you, it’s not big enough.

    Challenge: What’s the boldest dream you have for yourself right now?

    A – AUDACIOUS ACTION (Fearless Moves Create Fearless Results)

    Fear will always be there—but your B.A.G. is on the other side of bold moves.

    Take the risk. Successful people don’t wait for permission; they go after what they want.

    Challenge: What’s one move you’ve been scared to make? What if you just did it?

    G – GO GET IT (Execution Over Excuses)

    You don’t just dream about the B.A.G.—you go get it.

    Consistency beats talent. The most successful people are the ones who refuse to quit.

    Challenge: What’s one step you can take TODAY to start securing your B.A.G.?
