Motivational Speaker/ TV Personality/Up With People Alumni

Let’s take a look at our guest speaker from today in Ghent, Belgium. The international superstar motivational speaker, Jerko Bozikovic! You may know him from his outstanding motivational speeches from all over Europe, or his guest appearance in Queer Eye: Belgium. Jerko was here today to help us think about who we are and what our purpose in life is.

Jerko shared his life story and told us all about his adventures leading up to the amazing human he is today. Jerko identifies as gay within the LGBTQ+ community. When he was young, he always wondered who he was or who he identified as. As he became older, Jerko started dancing in musicals and broadways which lead to him meeting more people within the LGBTQ+ community. However, as he continued thinking, “who am I?” and “what will happen after this?” This led to the start of personal development classes. These classes showed him the importance of self awareness and realization. Jerko soon after found himself becoming a personal life coach and trainer within cooperate centers where he began the phrase “why not?” Each time Jerko would find himself in an internal conflict, he would reply to himself “Why not?” This helped him become the happy go lucky person he is today.

Now, Jerko travels the whole world giving speeches to people about self realization and awareness! He also stresses the facts about homosexual relations and activities in other countries. Jerko is very open with the events that have happened in his life, and now lives happily with the little things in life. He reminds us all to stay grateful and humble.
