Expanding Your Influence Ecosystem Through Purpose, Positioning & Performance
In this session, Lia shares the real, repeatable framework behind building influence that opens doors across industries -- without chasing visibility, titles, or capital. Drawing from her journey of creating a globally recognized brand, selling out on QVC, being featured by Oprah Magazine, and organically attracting opportunities through authentic relationships, Lia reveals how influence is created through connection, not promotion. This session introduces The Influence Ecosystem – a practical system built on purpose, positioning, and performance – and shows how light-filled intention, emotional intelligence, and integrity create trust, momentum, and sustainable growth. From entrepreneurship and brand building to real estate and community development, Lia demonstrates why these principles are not industry-specific, but universally applicable. Attendees will leave with clarity on how to intentionally place themselves in the right rooms, build meaningful relationships that compound over time, and create influence that naturally leads to visibility, revenue, and long-term impact.
Lia Valencia Key
Raised in a deeply impoverished neighborhood of Philadelphia, Lia spent part of her childhood living in a homeless shelter with her mother and siblings. From those humble beginnings, she rose to become the Founder of VALENCIA KEY® Jewelry, a nationally recognized lifestyle brand featured on QVC, in Oprah’s Favorite Things, and on PBS. The brand has been worn by influential leaders including Robin Roberts and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex – whole wearing of the JOY bracelet led to a four-hour sellout and an 11,000% increase in sales. VALENCIA KEY® also partners with artisans in Ghana, West Africa, helping transform adversity into sustainable opportunity and global impact. Beyond brand building, Lia is developing affordable housing in her home community of Philadelphia, uplifting neighborhoods through beautification and creating possibility through thoughtfully designed affordable rental homes. Her work reflects a commitment to long-term value creation, community impact, and relationship-driven growth. Lia has spoken to more than 400,000 attendees at major leadership events, including Jamie Kern Lima’s Becoming Unstoppable, sharing the stage with leaders such as John Maxwell, Tony Robbins, and Ed Mylett.
