Inspire Resilience with School Assembly Speaker Eddie Cortés

Empowering Students to Build Confidence, Resilience and Self-Worth

For over 20 years, motivational school speaker Eddie Cortés has been on a mission to empower students with resilience, confidence, and a positive self-worth—helping them chase their dreams despite obstacles.

This mission is deeply personal to Eddie.

A Personal Story That Inspires Change

As a middle schooler, Eddie dreamed of playing Major League Baseball for the New York Yankees—until his cousin told him he wasn’t big enough, fast enough, or talented enough. Those words crushed Eddie’s self-worth. He stopped believing in himself, which negatively impacted his grades, relationships, and choices. He stopped dreaming.

Today, Eddie inspires students to believe they are braver than they believe, stronger than they seem, and smarter than they think. He partners with public and private schools across the U.S. to deliver his powerful and interactive school assembly program, I’M POSSIBLE.

This program helps students:

• Build resilience to overcome failure, obstacles, and disappointment.
• Develop confidence and a positive self-view.
• Adopt a growth mindset to chase their dreams.

Captivating Students with Humor & Storytelling

Eddie’s energy and passion are contagious. His unique ability to captivate elementary and middle school students with humor, storytelling, and interactive object lessons keeps them engaged and motivated to do hard things.

He challenges students to push past limitations and embrace the I’M POSSIBLE mindset—helping them see that their obstacles don’t define them.

Why Schools Trust Eddie Cortés as Their Assembly Speaker

With 20+ years of experience, a bachelor’s degree in leadership, and a passion for helping students overcome adversity, Eddie has inspired thousands of students nationwide. His engaging approach—combining humor, storytelling, and interactive lessons—makes resilience real and relatable for students.

When he’s not speaking, Eddie stays active in the batting cages, loves CrossFit, and enjoys making memories with his wife and daughter.
