Kris Hammons Speaking

Grit isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you build.

Born with a rare form of dwarfism, I underwent more than 20 surgeries as a child. Today, I’m a husband, father of four, writer, and motivational speaker who uses that story to help audiences rethink adversity, resilience, and what it means to keep showing up.

Through storytelling, humor, and practical lessons, I leave audiences inspired by my story and challenged to think differently about their own. I’ve spoken to crowds of 1, 000+ and organizations including Ramsey Solutions and the University of Kentucky. Available for keynotes, corporate events, schools, churches, and more.
