Testimonials
“Taniki's “motivational” speech on personal responsibility was inspirational and energizing. She provided lifelong tools and personal insights to manage our lives.” I’m confident that the cadets at the Military Ball who apply her words of wisdom will commit their lives to continuous improving and developing as leaders. Thanks so much for making our JROTC Military Ball a success. I would recommend Taniki to any organization.”
-Jerome N. Ferrette, CWO3, USN, (Ret.)
“I truly appreciate Taniki coming to speak to our group. We met a couple years ago when she attended my bible study class here at Little Creek. Since then, I always admired what God had done in her life. When she came to share her raw story of God's love, redemption, and purpose for her, it anchored all of those things I saw in the truth that God will meet you where you are. He will come to you wherever you fall, wherever you land, and remind you that you are His, and He plans to do great things through you. She is an amazing lady with a phenomenal story, and it inspired all of us to get out of our own way and let God reveal what he can really accomplish with us if we trust Him!”

“It is with great pleasure that I highly recommend Taniki Richard! We recently had the pleasure of having Taniki speak at our annual NJROTC Military Ball on February 3, 2016. The message she conveyed, to over 300 cadets and 20 NJROTC instructors, was well received and motivational for all of us. Mrs. Richard’s personal story is simply amazing and something others can benefit from if they have the opportunity to hear it. After 28 years of naval service, and four years of teaching high school NJROTC, it is without reservation that I personally recommend Taniki Richard as a motivational guest speaker.”
