Speaking

Sara Freeman Smith is the esteemed founder and President of U R Gems LLC. She is a motivational force, in whatever task or role she considers and assumes — speaker, author, recruiter and a passionate advocate for recruiting people with disabilities.

Designated being legally blind over the years, is not in Sara's psyche. Sara's boundless energy and unwavering passion inspires others with determination and the wherewithal to persevere and achieve their goals — whatever that might be.

As a motivational speaker, Sara imparts valuable job search skills with career planning and personal insights as she wittingly entertains and walks you through experiential, participatory workshops available for various organizations, community groups and churches.

Over two decades ago, she embarked on her speaking career by authoring a self-help book titled, "Turning Stones into Gems: Finding Purpose in Your Life & Career." Since then, she has published its 3rd Edition and is often invited to share her wisdom with diverse audiences, both locally and nationally.
