I couldn’t have been where I am today without this club, and the support of everyone. I enjoy what other members share with me and I enjoy sharing what I know with the others.”

Linda Swindling

“Everything, EVERYTHING, I’ve learned about speaking, writing, and making a living through professional speaking is from the information, people, and connections I made in NSA and NSA North Texas. NSA North Texas – If you want to make money speaking, you must join and attend this community.”

Dave Lieber

“My only true regret in life is that I didn’t join the National Speakers Association 30 years earlier. I always say the lessons that NSA teaches you about, well, all of life, serve you so well in every capacity, no matter your profession, skill level or area of expertise. The reason is the people, and how they are so willing to share their knowledge and experience. You learn how to share what is uniquely you to help others, and you learn how to do it with flair, originality, timeliness and humor. NSA is a potent force for good.”

Dianna Booher

“Will Rogers famously said, “Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects.” What I love about the NSANT chapter is that statement in reverse: “Everybody is brilliant, only on different subjects.” The group has so much talent and expertise to share. I rarely attend a meeting that I don’t meet someone with a huge knowledgebase that’s intriguing or helpful to me in some way.”

What makes NSA North Texas so valuable is the people in NSA North Texas. Anyone that wants to surround themselves with the best and brightest in the speaking industry should join NSA North Texas.”

John Lucas
