We had the good fortune of connecting with Will Baggett and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Will, how has your work-life balance changed over time?
For me, and my business specifically, work-life balance is pretty much non-existent. Instead, I would venture to say it has become more of a work-life integration of sorts. There was a time I did not approach it this way, and I was burning the candle of both ends.

After experiencing a pretty significant health scare in 2020, I realized it was time to shift my focus to a healthy integration of what generates revenue and what I enjoy doing.

As a professional speaker, your brand is essentially your entire business, so I worked diligently to show a different side of myself that would make me even more of a marketable speaker and service provider.

The results have been amazing.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I’ve been a professional speaker since 2017, and I think what sets me apart is creativity and engagement. Oftentimes you will see speakers delivering what I call the sit & gets, and there is a place for that, don’t get me wrong.

However, if you ask any event organizer today what the most lacking trait is for professional speakers, they will quickly point to interaction and engagement.

Because I started my speaking career working with young people, I had no choice but to be super entertaining and engaging, and I was able to translate that into collegiate and professional speaking opportunities.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
