WORKING WITH STUDENTS & YOUNG ADULTS
FROM PROBLEM TO PURPOSE: Rewriting the Narrative of Your Becoming
Because you are not what happened to you - you are what you decide to become.
Cassandra Knight’s journey is a living testament to the power of choice and transformation. Once labeled “too much” — too loud, too emotional, too unstable — she grew up in constant chaos, believing her voice and her presence were problems to fix. But after hitting rock bottom shortly after being adopted, Cassandra made a decision that would alter the course of her life: she refused to be the problem any longer. She chose to become the proof.
In this deeply moving and electrifying keynote, Cassandra takes audiences on a journey through pain, purpose, and personal accountability — showing that no matter how broken your beginning, you have the power to rewrite your story. With fiery motivation and heartfelt authenticity, she reminds students and young adults that their circumstances don’t define them — their choices do.
Through powerful storytelling and transformational insight, Cassandra challenges every listener to stop letting their past dictate their potential and start living like the author of their own story.
