Candice Ruggiero

Candice has lived in three countries (the Philippines, Australia, and the USA) and has valuable experience as an educator, mentor, leader, school owner, and motivational speaker. She holds two master's degrees, which she acquired from New York. She has devoted 30 years to education, helping students pursue excellence and develop skills necessary for lifelong success. She is passionate about mentoring and constantly reminding teachers of the “why” they are educators.
Her leadership experiences date back to 1995, when she owned and managed two schools in the Philippines. This continued in the USA, where she led teams, initiatives, summer school, and projects in public and private schools. She has been an administrative intern and part of the assistant principal pool, acquiring more leadership skills through workshops and professional development.
Candice realizes that “Everything We Need in Life, We Learned as Students.” This mindset changed her career path and led her to become a Motivational Speaker. She has inspired students and their families, teachers, and community members and would like to inspire and make an impact on more lives through her thoughts, ideas, words, and actions as a motivational speaker.
Our daily experiences are full of challenges, defeats, and hardships that can contribute to poor self-concept and negative self-confidence, affecting our personal, professional, and social interactions and activities.
“The most beautiful people I’ve known are those who have known trials, struggles, and loss and have found their way out of the depths.” Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's quote strengthens the idea that we can use these valuable experiences to reach our highest potential, which may lead us to happiness and success.
In Candice’s keynote talk, LIVE WITH NO REGRETS: Attaining our Authentic Self, she shares how we can use our strengths and innate skills to overcome and embrace everyday experiences and make them part of our life’s journey.
The audience will walk away with meaningful lessons such as:
- Great leaders embrace others.
- Face your failures and defeats head-on, then move on!
- Striving for success isn't the goal; making an impact is!
- Your defining moment can either make you or break you!
- Commit to Self-Care and Self-Love, and be your Best Self.
In my speaking engagements, I will invite the audience on a journey of self-discovery to help them realize that the answers to their fears, worries, defeats, and challenges are simply within them. We learned it in our homes, school, and the community we lived in. When we have reached our fullest potential, we can start to LIVE WITHOUT REGRETS because we have attained our AUTHENTIC SELVES.
