When King Charles Crowned My Genius – And Why it Matters
By Sarah O'Bryan
2 min read | April 28, 2025

Two years ago today, I experienced a moment that changed me forever.
Inside the walls of Buckingham Palace, His Majesty King Charles III looked me in the eye — and called me a “genius.“
It’s a moment I will cherish for life.
Not because of the title.
Not because of the grandeur.
But because it was a powerful reminder that true leadership, true excellence, and true impact are born from years of sacrifice, passion, and relentless pursuit of purpose.
Very few ever stand in a room like that.
Even fewer are acknowledged personally by a King.
But here’s the truth:
You don’t create extraordinary moments by doing what’s expected — you create them by daring to lead differently.
For years, like many of you, I put others first. I worked quietly behind the scenes, powering other people’s dreams.
But today, I step into the light — proudly, purposefully — and invite you to do the same.
If you’re ready to work with someone who knows what it takes to turn vision into reality…
If you’re ready to create moments that don’t just impress — but transform…
If you’re ready to unlock the genius within your own mission…
Let’s talk.
Because the next extraordinary moment we create — could be yours.
With gratitude and bold vision,
