Lachie Smart's story is very inspiring and he weaves some very important lessons to learn through his message. I have heard him speak twice now and both times he held the audience's engagement throughout his speech. I highly recommend Lachlan as a guest speaker for youth. His message of the potential of youth, learning from failures, resilience and perseverance are incredibly motivational.

Lachie Smart’s presentation was very engaging, at times humorous, and the images of his amazing journey is something I will remember. His attitude and achievements to date show that no matter what hurdles lie ahead that the sky is the limit. Lachie is a brilliant man who has already achieved so much in life and someone who will continue to do so. I found him to be an inspiration not only to myself but to the entire audience.
