Co-founded Kidorable, Business & Life Coach, and Keynote Speaker

At 24 years old, I co-founded Kidorable, now a global brand that produces fun, practical, and unique children’s accessories. Our products have been sold in over 5,000 stores in over 20 countries and have also appeared in People and on The Today Show.

Until 2020, I served as president of Kidorable. Now my co-founder runs Kidorable so I can focus on coaching entrepreneurs. As a personal growth athlete, I have always been fascinated by human potential. It explains why I’ve read over 3,000 books spanning topics including psychology, business, philosophy, and spirituality. To be honest, it also explains my nickname.

I believe you can achieve greatness, no matter what’s going on in your life and business. I also know we make things a lot harder than they need to be, especially as entrepreneurs. That’s why I became a coach.

Founder @ I Love Coaching Co. | Coaching coaches to scale profitable businesses | REAL Coach Method™ 

Adam Roach is the Founder and CEO of I Love Coaching Co., where he helps proven leaders turn their experience into a coaching business that’s real, profitable, and built to last. Known for his ability to recruit, build teams, and scale companies, Adam brings two decades of entrepreneurial experience into the coaching space with one clear belief: you don’t need hype, gimmicks, or complicated funnels to build a meaningful business. You need clarity, conviction, and a model that works.

Adam’s career has always centered on building people and building performance. After competing as a collegiate tennis player and launching his first business in his twenties, he went on to build one of the most dynamic tennis clubs in Beverly Hills. He later entered real estate in Los Angeles, where he cut his teeth on six and seven figure flips and learned what it takes to perform under pressure.

In his mid-thirties, Adam transitioned into ownership and leadership within Keller Williams Realty, where he operated multiple franchises and built a leadership organization that scaled across the South Carolina coast. Alongside his team, he helped grow and support more than 700 agents generating nearly $2 billion in total sales.

As his career evolved, Adam built a recruiting technology company that has helped recruit more than 130,000 agents across North America. After selling his franchises in his early forties, he shifted his focus toward building a coaching company and community designed to help coaches build businesses that reflect who they are and the results they can deliver.

Today, Adam leads I Love Coaching Co., which includes coaching, community, group training, and curriculum built around the REAL Coach Method™. He also speaks and teaches on leadership, recruiting, identity-driven business building, and creating offers that sell through simple, relational enrollment.

Outside of work, Adam loves traveling and creating experiences with his wife, Dana Gentry, their two kids, Addison and Amelia, and their dogs, Frankie and Charli. You’ll usually find him investing in real estate, playing tennis with his kids, or out on the water in Charleston.

Founder @ I Love Coaching Co. | Coaching coaches to scale profitable businesses | REAL Coach Method™ 

Matt Shea is a developing author having published nine books. He is greatly inspired by the writings of Andy Griffith and focuses on the common folk that small towns are made of.

He credits the success of his first book, “The Groundskeeper And Other Short Stories” to his family. The values that were instilled throughout his childhood gave him the strong sense of justice that is conveyed through his writings. The Shea family is only an average American family from an average neighborhood. Their secret was that they were close knit and accepted others.

Matt’s mother, Vyerl set an example of being self sacrificing; having never placed herself first. She always cared about the feelings of others, no matter who they were. She even sponsored many foster children despite having a family of eight. During the holidays, the Roman Catholic mom would also have a Hanukkah bush for their Jewish friends. There were years when the family would make Christmas gifts and personally deliver them to seniors in rest homes.

The very table that Matt writes all of his stories on came from a childhood neighbor, Netta Wilson. Through time, Netta had to be relocated to assistant living due to deteriorating health. Vyerl never forgot that she and Netta traveled to see the Vatican together. Care packages, visits, and transporting Netta to spend Sundays at their home became a ritual until her last day. When she passed away, Matt was bequeathed an antique table from Netta. A priceless heirloom that he regards as sacred.

A union worker for thirty-two years, Matt found himself surrounded with average people and got a close look at what their lives were all about. This opened his eyes and taught him many lessons about others as well as himself.

When Matt retired in June of 2010, he pursued his lifelong dream of becoming an author. His inspiration has been fueled by being a worker, brother, devoted dad, and loyal son. These gifts motivate him to write about the trials of everyday life for the common man.

 Real Estate Broker | Area Leader | Home Stager | Author of “Above Asking: Daily Mindwork for Real Estate Professionals”  g 

I was measuring houses and hanging for-sale signs by the age of eight. Growing up inside a family brokerage with a 50-year legacy, I learned early on exactly how homes, people, and high-stakes decisions intersect. Real estate isn't just my career—it's in my DNA.

Since 2014, I have personally closed over 750 transactions totaling more than $450M in volume. But my impact on the industry goes far beyond my own production. As both a State Broker and Growth Director, I have taken thousands of real estate agents under my wing, building the frameworks and mentorship pipelines that turn driven agents into market leaders.

My approach to the business is entirely unique. With a background spanning media, publishing, technology, and entertainment, I look at real estate through a creative lens. I treat home staging like elite set design and each property launch like a film premiere—planned and executed with absolute intention. Driven by my background in film directing and improv, my philosophy is simple: clarity beats theater, and momentum beats perfection.

Visionary CEO of Dexa and the first female CEO of an unmanned aviation company in the United States   

Beth Flippo is the visionary CEO of Dexa and the first female CEO of an unmanned aviation company in the United States. She is leading the next evolution of last-mile logistics through autonomous drone delivery that empowers local retailers to compete with global e-commerce giants.

Under her leadership, Dexa became one of only four FAA-certified, fully integrated drone carriers in the country. The company secured FAA Part 135 Certification authorizing drone deliveries beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS), and its DE2020 drone has been added to the Secretary of Transportation FAA’s S1 List of Certified Aircraft.

Beth brings more than two decades of experience at the intersection of finance, embedded systems engineering, aerospace, and advanced defense technology. Prior to founding Dexa, she served as Vice President of Embedded Software Development at TELEGRID Technologies, where she led the development of technologies adopted by multiple branches of the U.S. Department of Defense.

She began her career in New York City’s financial sector with Goldman Sachs, designing sophisticated quantitative trading and high-volume financial systems. That rare combination of financial systems thinking, mission-critical engineering, and regulatory navigation uniquely positioned her to tackle one of today’s most complex infrastructure challenges: modernizing last-mile logistics without sacrificing community-based commerce.

The spark for Dexa came during a chaotic pharmacy trip with her four children. In that moment, Beth had a simple but transformative realization: there has to be a better way to get what we need.

Today, she is building that better way.

Dexa aims to turn two-day shipping into 15-minute delivery through autonomous drone operations, restoring competitive balance to neighborhood retailers and strengthening the communities they serve. Beth is not simply building aircraft. She is rebuilding infrastructure.
