“I had the pleasure of seeing Kenston speak at the SHRM Inclusion conference and he is just someone who has a way of commanding a room with his positive energy and sense of humor while still getting the important messages across. This work in the DEI space is not easy and Kenston really pushes people to lean in and just do more with where they are right now in their DEI journey. When you attend one of Kenston’s sessions be prepared to feel like you belong and are welcomed as he puts in the extra effort to greet everyone and introduce himself to ensure there is a safe space created before diving in to the more difficult conversations. I found that to be special and that is what makes him so personable and a stand out speaker.”

“I had the honor and privilege of hearing Kenston present on “Winning Conversations: How to Communicate Successfully and Courageously About Race” at the HR Florida Conference. Not only was this topic “right on time”, with current climate; Kenton’s delivery was raw, uncut and real! In my opinion, this conversation has been long overdue. Kenston created a safe place, allowing for vulnerability. I have attended many sessions on this very topic over the past year and half, but none as dynamic and real as this. Kenston, THANK YOU for bringing your true, authentic self to this conversation. I’m looking forward to continuing the conversations I have started within my professional/personal networks and taking them to a whole new level of vulnerability and continuous fight for awareness.”
Jessica Holloman, SHRM-CP, PHR
“
At the HR Florida Conference in August 2021, I had the honor of hearing Kenston present and speak about speaking courageously about race in the workplace. Kenston’s message resonated and was universal – we cannot avoid talking about topics of such importance anymore and need to create safe environments in our workplaces to foster such discussions. Whether race, LGBTQ+, gender, or other topics we have long thought too sensitive to discuss, Kenston’s collaborative approach to bringing these issues to light is engaging, serious, and even fun. His innate ability to connect with everyone in his audience is authentic and further adds to the meaningful nature of his approach. I am hopeful I get to learn more from Kenston as I continue my own journey to speak courageously.
Kenston Henderson Sr. and the Live with Lyfe team were a pleasure to work with. Kenston took the time to understand our group dynamics in order to incorporate into the event. His presentation was high energy, relevant, and informative. He kept the group engaged and was able to showcase, through stories and examples, how attendees could take his insight back to ‘real-life’. We would highly recommend Kenston for your next event.”
