With 28 years as an international professional speaker and corporate trainer, Precious L. Williams has methods to empower her clients to secure millions in pitch competition winnings, secure lucrative speaking engagements, and have helped countless Fortune 500 companies outperform their competition. From the poverty-stricken streets of St. Louis, Missouri, to the global stage of influence, Precious’ story of transformation is nothing less than iconic.
Precious doesn’t just talk confidence, she embodies it. She’s a 13-time pitch competition champion, Shark Tank alum, bestselling author, and “Killer Pitch Master” and here, we explore what it really takes to build a brand, a business, and a bold voice from scratch.
Precious shares how she went from surviving homelessness and trauma to training Fortune 500 leaders and commanding global stages with fearless authenticity. We unpack her journey through abuse, mental health diagnoses, and professional reinvention, revealing how personal pain shaped her superpower: the ability to show up fully without code-switching, without apology, and without limits.
We also explore what it means to lead in uncertain times, why silence is the first step to clarity, and how audacity (not perfection) is the secret to becoming a true rainmaker. Whether you’re a corporate leader, government employee, or entrepreneur navigating career uncertainty, this conversation offers both strategy and soul. Plus, Precious shares three powerful “kisses of life” to help you reset and rise, no matter what season you’re in.
What’s Inside:
- How Precious survived homelessness and became an entrepreneurial powerhouse
- What it means to lead in uncertain times
- Three “kisses of life” to help you reset and rise to your greatest potential

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
