Collection: Lived Experiences. Keynotes that inspire action.

Transform your audience with storytelling that inspires action. 

You’re planning an event, leading a team, or building a community - and you want your audience to feel something real. You’re looking for a speaker who doesn’t just inspire, but connects.

Someone who speaks from experience.

Don't just skim the surface. Your audience deserves more than motivation - they need meaning. They’re facing burnout. Grief. Change. Maybe they feel disconnected from their purpose, or are hungry for authenticity and courage.

Resilience in real life. 

Leigh-Ann is a Canadian author, speaker, and entrepreneur who speaks from lived experience - with clarity, wit, and emotional resonance. Sometimes she tries to be funny. Her engagements are rooted in real stories of resilience, loss, and transformation. She doesn’t just talk about resilience and courage - she’s lived it. The proof is in her book. 

Leigh-Ann was born and raised in New-Brunswick, Canada. She's a dedicated professional who lives in Shediac with her husband and cherished dog. She's addicted to caffeine and travel. Loves big cities. Hates the traffic. 

The story beneath the surface

Leigh-Ann can adapt her engagements to any organizational needs, but here is her signature pre-packaged one to get you inspired.

Her story began with traumatic personal losses. Like many people, she tried to push through by doing everything she thought she should - but those choices only led her to exhaustion. At her lowest point, she realized that pretending to be fine wasn’t working. Step by step, she rebuilt her life with honesty and courage, turning her pain into purpose. She captured that journey in a book, and now she shares her story with audiences, showing up as her authentic self. Through humor, openness, and real-life lessons, Leigh-Ann inspires people to face their own struggles, reminding them that mistakes don’t define us - they can become the foundation for resilience, growth, and hope.
