A motivational speaker, author and life coach, Tony Gaskins.

Tony Gaskins has just released his new book, “A Woman’s Influence” which is co-authored by his wife, Sherry Gaskins.

Tony Gaskins has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Tyra Banks Show and TBN’s 700 Club.

Tony Gaskins made his fair share of mistakes like most young men from areas like where he grew up. Many of his childhood friends are serving life sentences in prison. Although Tony was introduced to the street life between the ages of 18–23, he finally found his way. At 23, he allowed love to change his life. His wife was unwilling to be with a man who wouldn’t live up to his full potential. That tough love pushed Tony to be more and to do more.

As his own agent, publicist, and manager Tony Gaskins began to build a blueprint that he teaches to thousands of students today. A self-taught master of service, Tony teaches as he learns. He first became known for his love and relationship advice. This wasn’t a popular topic for a man to be so passionate about, but it was organic for Tony because love transformed him. He spoke from the heart on love and relationships and it helped him amass millions of followers online. After a few years in that space, he also began to teach business and entrepreneurship. Tony owns five companies with countless streams of income, so business and entrepreneurship were a natural progression.

By combining all of his passions Tony became an author, life coach, and speaker. In 2015 Tony began working with an NBA team as the team life coach. Tony also became the life coach for several college teams. His message comes from his mess. He believes that we all are coaches because we’ve all learned lessons that can help someone else. Operating in his gifts also took him around the world as a highly sought-after speaker. Tony has spoken in two other continents and over 10 different countries and counting. Tony was able to accomplish these feats by the tender age of 31.

He doesn’t believe in inboxes. “Don’t put me in a box until I’m going in the ground,” he says. He covers a wide range of topics in the areas of life, love, and business. He’s written several books on those subjects with his latest work being Make It Work published by Howard Books and available everywhere books are sold.

• How mistakes helped him succeed.
