Alfonso Kennard
Author, Motivational Speaker, and Thought Leader in Houston, TX
Alfonso Kennard’s journey reflects a rare blend of discipline, transformation, and compassion. Over time, he has evolved from a nationally recognized attorney into an author, motivational speaker, and thought leader focused on purpose and personal growth. Through his work with SoulFull Motivation + Ministry and its platforms SoulAwake and Remoralize, he helps others navigate life’s challenges and rediscover strength through authenticity, gratitude, and mindfulness. His story is not just about success; it’s about learning to redefine it.
Before becoming a mentor and speaker, Alfonso built a remarkable legal career spanning over two decades. His achievements include earning an AV rating, being named a Super Lawyer, and ranking among the country's Top 100 National Trial Lawyers. He represented some of the nation’s largest companies for ten years before founding and leading his law firm for 13 years. His ability to balance precision, leadership, and strategy made him a respected figure in the legal community. Yet, despite his accomplishments, he reached a point where external success no longer matched his internal purpose.
This realization led him to take a courageous step: retiring from the legal profession to pursue a more human-centered calling. Rather than focusing on courtroom victories, Alfonso focused on helping others regain their confidence, peace, and direction. His experience in law taught him discipline and perseverance, qualities he now channels into guiding people through transformation, healing, and leadership growth.
In his public speaking and writing, Alfonso emphasizes honesty and clarity. His message centers on the coexistence of courage and empathy in leadership, particularly in demanding environments. He extends this message through his podcast, NoBullChat, by holding open, candid discussions about growth, truth, and human resilience. He believes that authenticity is not only essential for leadership but also for personal freedom and fulfillment.
