About Ryan Botner

    Helping Leaders Transform Their Vision Into Reality

    For over a decade, I’ve been passionate about one thing: helping people become the best version of themselves. As a business coach and speaker, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of leaders who want more from their lives and businesses.

    My Story

    My journey into coaching and speaking wasn't planned—it was discovered. Like many entrepreneurs, I started my career thinking success was all about working harder and longer. I quickly learned that without intentionality, hard work alone leads to burnout, not fulfillment.

    The turning point came when I discovered the power of intentional goal-setting. By writing down my goals and holding myself accountable every single day, I transformed not just my business results, but my entire life. My productivity increased by 95%, my relationships improved, and I finally found the balance I had been searching for.

    This transformation was so profound that I couldn't keep it to myself. I began sharing these principles with fellow business owners, then at local events, and eventually on stages across the Midwest. Today, Cornerstone Speaking exists to help others experience the same transformation.

    Based in North Dakota, I serve clients throughout the Midwest and beyond. Whether through one-on-one coaching, group workshops, or keynote presentations, my mission remains the same: to help you live and lead with intention.
