Lea Ann Mallett          

Speaker, activist, writer, photographer, midlife momma

Lea Ann Mallett is a lifelong activist and passionate storyteller who believes fiercely that we all are changing the world, every day. In her activism, she has travelled from direct action wilderness activist to nonprofit leader, from sitting in an ancient cedar for three days to protest clear-cut logging to leading forest protests to creating thriving nonprofits. She is now a motivational speaker and writer, a purpose-driven entrepreneur and she creates photo essays of her life in the wilds of suburbia in her blog, Becoming Undomesticated.

In Mallett's career, she has stepped up to the helm of two nonprofits as Executive Director, raising the profile of the first to international attention and quadrupling the budget of the most recent organization she led while exponentially increasing its reach and impact. Mallett has been a high school science teacher, an addictions counsellor with heroin users, and a health promoter.

Mallett is an OCT certified educator (Bachelor of Education, Chemistry and Biology, Intermediate/Senior) with a science background (Honours Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Psychology, University of Western Ontario). She has extensive experience in speaking to audiences, large and small, and extensive leadership and non-profit management experience.

Mallett speaks to personal reconnection with the wild within us, revolutionizing the non-profit sector to support and sustain leaders and many other topics and issues.
