J. Loren Norris is one of the best marketing minds that I have ever come across. He thinks outside the box, while keeping you informed and making sure that the end goals are always in mind. As a speaker Loren was AWESOME at keeping the attention of the room and making sure that everyone was kept involved at all times while making sure to get our sometimes boring information out to the group. He is one of those guys that when you cross his path you will remember him forever and I sure am glad that we have crossed!

Loren has a voracious appetite for learning and is humble and teachable as a student. He blends a unique combination of experience, knowledge and perceptive insight into delivering an impactful message to reach others, whether a business leader, student, or the marginalized of society.

I first saw Loren speak at an event 4-5yrs ago and was amazed at how he could paint a picture with words. On March 19th, 2019, we invited Loren to speak at our event. Friends in Service of Heroes - DFW launched that night and we were honored to have Loren as our very first speaker. As usual, he did an amazing job and we could have listened to him speak for hours. I highly recommend J. Loren Norris for any of you speaking needs.

I had the opportunity to coach with J Loren before my first on stage speaking event, and then he helped me evaluate it to make it better afterward. He is a master story teller! He has a way of pulling stories out of you, and helping you craft them in a way that engages the audience and takes them on a journey. He knows how to make small tweaks that create big shifts in messaging, and also motivating the audience for real change and transformation. I still refer to my notes and recordings as I desire to keep improving. J Loren is an expert, he over delivers on what he promises, and you will be amazed at how much you will improve when you work with him.

J Loren Norris is a real unicorn. I have never seen a speaker be able to take someone’s message and, with no practice or script, deliver a more powerful message than the person who actually lived it.

Verified @alyssarahn.comJ Loren and StoryPower coaching is top notch. Every time I met with J Loren I was blown away by how he could not only hear the story, but the emotion behind it and help me find a way to say it that was sure to connect with my audience. I use what I learned from him on a daily basis - whether on social media, my podcast, speaking to a group virtually or in person, and even at home with my husband and kids. People connect to stories and when you tell good ones they connect with, they remember you. I highly recommend working with J Loren!

Verified @opcare.orgLoren is the most prolific and the BEST storyteller I have ever met. We worked together for 14 years and I can say he is top notch. He is brilliant and smart with a very creative mind. He is a great coach. He helped me craft my speech in Dubai during the Global Leadership Summit at the Hilton last year. His coaching helped change lives of people in that summit where 15 countries representatives were present. For 14 years he helped me giving compelling speeches. I highly recommend you attend his classes. I tell you, you will be a lot better person once Loren becomes your teacher, the best in the West!

or me personally, I needed a fresh voice to speak into my writer’s mind, to help redirect my thoughts with clarity and revelation of next steps, to get back on track in practical ways. This six weeks of StoryPower guided coaching with the expertise of J. Loren Norris crossed my path in God’s perfect timing. I’m so very grateful and thankful for his kind and compassionate coaching style that has unlocked my creativity that has been stored up in the gray matter of my mind! I do highly recommend this opportunity of experience to anyone whose desire is to grow and excel in their vision to serve others best!

I really enjoyed this public speaking course. J Loren explained concepts clearly, shared many practical examples, and created a supportive environment for learning. Each participant was given ample time to practice live and receive thoughtful, constructive feedback. I walked away with more confidence and practical tools I can actually use. Highly recommend.
