 Joshua
Fredenburg, a professional speaker, talk show
host, author, president, and voice of Generations
X and Y began impacting the lives of emerging
leaders nationally through dynamic speeches,
thoughtful advice, and creative media events
in May of 2002 when he was chosen as the graduate
speaker for his graduating class at the California
State University of Long Beach. Just five
years later at the age of 26, he has shared
enriching messages with over 1.2 million people.
“I have a desire to set an example for my generation – building a
positive image so we can take this country where it needs to go,” stated
Fredenburg. Energetic and passionate, he presents a clear leadership vision and
path to all audiences, inspiring them to action.
In 2004, Joshua completed his first book entitled, “Vision, the Answer
to Generations X and Y”. He then began his speaking mission
towards developing 21st Century leaders with a vision to make a positive impact
in their community, nation, and world at an FBLA (Future Business Leaders
of America) conference in Chicago, Illinois. Following this exciting
conference, a high school girl emailed Joshua to tell him how his speech on leadership
motivated her to believe that she will make a positive impact in the world one
day. This encouraging statement further fueled Joshua’s
passion to equip more people to make a positive impact.
In 2005, with one year of professional speaking
under his belt, Joshua found himself at a statewide
community college leadership conference in San
Jose, California delivering his empowering message
on Vision. After this enlightening and
dynamic speech, a tearful young woman in her
early twenties approached him and shared her
story of how his message helped her not only
discover a vision for her life, but helped her
see things more clearly. This
was a powerful moment in Joshua’s speaking
career because his ultimate purpose as a speaker
is not only to educate and empower, but to help
people discover their destiny and purpose in
life so that they can go out and make a positive
impact in what they were purposed to do.
In the beginning of 2006, Joshua
found himself giving insight to a collegiate
leadership audience at the Southwestern Black
Student Leadership Conference on how to find
the right partner in a relationship. During
the enlightening message on relationships, he
stated that, “Every time I
seem to give this presentation, someone ends
up getting married a year later.”
Precisely, three months later, a young man who
recently proposed sent him an email from Texas
explaining that he was the one that was talked
about in the presentation. This
excited Joshua because one of his greatest passions
as a speaker and husband is to help people find
the right partner in a relationship and build
up strong families that can have lasting affects
on future generations.
With an average speaking rating
of over 90% from all of his audiences throughout
the country, Joshua continues to be ecstatic
and honored with the opportunity to not only
speak to this next generation of leaders, but
actually see and hear about how their lives
have been changed in a great way.
In addition to speaking to
various audiences throughout the country, Joshua
has also hosted and produced an award winning
show for this younger generation that has made
a great impact in several people’s lives.
For instance, at the beginning of 2006, a young
woman who moved to Los Angeles from Dallas was
so impacted by the show that she not only called
to comment, but desired to be a part of the
show as well. Now, she not only speaks
her mind on various issues discussed on the
show, but she is living her dream of being part
of a show that is truly having an impact on
this younger generation! This
excites Joshua as well because he is not only
changing lives through television, but he his
building up others leaders around him with the
same vision.
Joshua will be the first to
tell you that success and accomplishing your
purpose in life is not an overnight thing, but
rather a process that never stops. Over
