The Speakers

Mike Foster

Author, Speaker, Coach & Dreamer

Known as the Mr. Rogers of personal development, Mike Foster is a best-selling author, speaker, and executive coach empowering people to build strong lives by turning their setbacks into superpowers.

Mike is the creator of the Primal Question Framework and is a master-trainer in the model. He is a Certified Experiential Specialist recognized by the International Society For Experiential Professionals.

Like a grace-flavored snow cone on a hot, judgmental day, Mike’s chart-topping and highly acclaimed “Fun Therapy” podcast and Primal Question Workshop will give you the one-two punch you need to stop making excuses and start living a stronger, better life.

His work has been featured on Good Morning America, FOX News and the New York Times. He lives in San Diego with his wife Jennifer and their fluffy dogs.

Bob spent decades as an attorney, trying to figure out how to live a whimsical, impactful life. These days, he calls himself a “recovering lawyer” because after practicing law for 25 years, then becoming the Honorary Consul to Uganda, he gave up his law firm to pursue writing and speaking full time.

He’s a New York Times bestselling author several times over, runs a popular weekly podcast, and recently turned farmer at The Oaks just outside San Diego, California.
