Tuwan Spencer

"wanted to highlight and extend thanks to Mr. Tuwan Spencer for joining us at the Cleveland Job Corps Center for our recent all staff professional development training. His presentation, “Your Past. Their Present. Our Future.,” was interactive, inspirational, and gave us an opportunity to reflect honestly on ourselves and how we show up for our colleagues and the young people we serve. Drawing from his experience as an educator and his own life experiences, he connected with our team and challenged us to grow in our self-awareness, communication, and accountability. Quite frankly, this was one of the best professional development trainings I have attended in recent years. I would recommend Mr. Spencer to any organization looking to make a meaningful impact on staff culture and the services they provide, regardless of industry. There is value in taking time to examine how our own experiences influence the way we lead, respond, and serve others. Thank you, Mr. Spencer, for investing in our team and reminding us that our personal growth matters to the people who depend on us."

"I’ve had the pleasure of contracting Tuwan Spencer for trainings for the Starting Point Staff as well as seeing him interact with the community. When I watched him keynote for a local keynote with the community I saw what I always see when I attend; passion, connection, and evidence based learning in regards to emotionally regulating life. But what I also saw, that maybe the world didn’t recognize was who he had sitting as his guest at his table representing his brand. His mother. His mentees. His personal photographer. An administrator at an early learning center he worked with. A childhood friend he gave a position to. Everyone of them had their own stories about him. Everyone of them was excited to be there and supportive. What did he do? Before he went up, he thanked them each, personally by person, telling them how they got him here. Prayed, and then went up and captivated that audience for an hour! They laughed, they cried and they learned. Tuwan isn’t just a speaker. He is an absolute LIFE CHANGER! Not because he is perfect, but because he is imperfect and doesn’t hide it. He uses it to unlock himself. And he shares that with everyone in EVERY room he enters. If you have the money spend it. If you don’t raise it. He is worth EVERY penny!"

"To Whom It May Concern: Hit the Streets Corporation had the opportunity to have Tuwan Spencer of Be Lionh3arted serve as the keynote speaker for our Plates and Pathways Luncheon in January 2026. Tuwan was prepared for the engagement, communicated professionally regarding the event, and delivered an engaging keynote presentation to our guests. His message aligned with the luncheon’s focus on personal growth, community, and creating pathways forward. Based on our experience working with Tuwan in his capacity as a keynote speaker, we are pleased to provide this letter acknowledging his participation and contribution to our event."

"Tuwan Spencer has a great program in LIONH3ARTED, and definitely needs to be in the Hall of Fame for his community service! Don't know if it has happened yet but I am committed to making sure they see it. I love what he is doing, and anything me and my organization can do to help, we will! Reachingoutforkids.org"

"The way Tuwan connects with youth and adults should be studied! I’ve watched him connect with children that were labeled as unreachable and I’ve watched him motivate some of the most defeated professionals in shared learning environments. If you are looking for change within youth, communities, or with professionals you only need Mr. Spencer and LIONH3ARTED!"
