LaDonna Gatlin believes one defining moment can redefine our lives. She knows firsthand that we can’t live someone else’s dream—that in order to be our personal best, we must find our own voice and “sing our own song.” LaDonna literally grew up on stage singing with her brothers--the legendary Gatlin Brothers. In the early 1970’s the Gatlins took their family harmony to Nashville. But a detour appeared on the road to stardom-- LaDonna got married. At this defining moment, she realized that success for her could be measured in a different way. So she took a giant leap of faith, chose to follow her heart, and “sing a different song” apart from her brothers. She has spent her entire career empowering people to “sing their own song” as well…to live life from the inside out…through their words, their deeds, and their actions. Her musical keynotes and concerts put her on the road more than one hundred days a year. She’s shared her message everywhere--from corporate powerhouses to the prison cells of death row. LaDonna truly speaks from the heart with stories that are the stuff of life. Her presentations drive home common sense wisdom for everyday living. Add her outstanding vocal ability to the mix, and you get a winning combination that educates, inspires and entertains! An attendee at one of LaDonna’s recent presentations summed it up this way: “You made us laugh…you made us cry…you made us sing…you made us THINK!” LaDonna Gaitlin is an active member of the National Speakers Association, and has earned its highest professional designation, the Certified Speaking Professional (CSP).
