Deanna Becket is a Professional Keynote Speaker, Author, and Life, Leadership, Health and Freedom Coach.

Deanna loves turning real-life lessons into memorable stories—many of them shaped by growing up on the wide-open Dakota prairie. A North Dakota native, she spent her final semester of college in Melbourne, Australia (yes, that was a leap of faith!) before graduating from North Dakota State University in Fargo in 1994. One word defined that season: discipline—and it’s been a theme ever since.

In 1996, Deanna married her husband, Chris, and together they made their home in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota before heading southeast to sunny Florida in 2021. During their years in the Black Hills, they homeschooled both of their children through high school—proving that learning, leadership, and character-building don’t stop at the classroom door.

Deanna proudly holds a PhD in M.O.M.—which stands for Pretty HARD Discipline. Why? Because it takes serious discipline to build a business from home, raise children in the way they should go, nurture a lifelong marriage, and develop excellent habits that actually stick. She’s lived it—and she loves sharing what works.

With a style that blends humor, heart, and hope, Deanna entertains, inspires, and encourages audiences to reach higher and keep going after what they dream. Drawing from childhood adventures, college experiences, business-building years, and life as a homeschool mom, she empowers people to forge ahead—even when the road gets tough—and to SHINE while doing it. ✨

Her wish is for you to choose life.  Choose PEACE.
Seek and run after it until it overtakes you.

Speaking

With a bold mission to become one of the most impactful motivational speakers of our generation, Deanna’s speaking philosophy centers on inspiring audiences through relatable stories they can immediately take home—and put into action at work and in life. Her dynamic style blends entertainment, encouragement, and inspiration, motivating people to rise higher and pursue what they once thought was out of reach.

Drawing from real-life experiences—her childhood adventures, college lessons, business-building years, and life as a parent and homeschool mom—Deanna empowers audiences to keep moving forward, even when the road feels tough. She doesn’t just share stories; she ignites courage, fuels confidence, and helps people forge ahead with purpose and joy.
