Caitlyn Jenner has become quite the pop culture phenomenon these days after being awarded the Arthur Ashe Courage Award, and allowing cameras to follow her life story as she transitioned from Bruce Jenner to who we now know as Caitlyn Jenner in her reality show, I Am Cait. Now, she wants to share her stories of struggle, courage and perseverance with audiences by holding a 5-city motivational speaking tour set to kick off in 2016.
The tour is being hosted by Unique Lives & Experiences, who have hosted speaking forums in the past that featured lead speakers, Bill and Hillary Clinton according to Page Six. As reported by the site, Jenner will provide advice on what it takes to "live an authentic life," and will personally address the transgender community with a special message. Afterwards, the 65-year-old will offer a special meet and greet reception, with a question and answer period, plus the opportunity to take photos, for those who purchase the $500 VIP package.
People reported that tickets for the speaking tour are already on sale, and the tour will begin on February 22 in Toronto, Canada. Other locations include San Francisco and Denver, according to Page Six and the Unique Lives press release.
According to the press release it was in April of 2015 when Jenner made the public announcement that she was a transgender woman during an interview with ABC News' Diane Sawyer on 20/20. Since then Jenner has fully embraced her new self, and publically claimed the identity of a woman named Caitlyn Jenner.
As reported by Us Magazine, Jenner filed documents with the court to legally change her gender from male to female, and change her name from Bruce to Caitlyn. The documents were filed on September 15, and by September 25 the change was officially granted, and she legally became Caitlyn Marie Jenner.
According to Us, the former Keeping Up With The Kardashians star posted this Starbuck's cup three days after legally changing her name showing she's all smiles.
Happy Saturday! What are your plans on this beautiful day?
