Speech Topics


Irreplaceable

In a world where everyone’s trying to fit in — or leverage the power of AI, Michelle takes audiences on an internal journey to help them uncover their true “one of a kind” potential.

'Irreplaceable' is NOT simply a motivational keynote; it’s an experiential framework on branding positioning, innovation, authentic leadership, and confidence.

IRREPLACEABLE is a journey through one’s individuality and the power of owning who we already are. It’s a call to contrast instead of compare. An invitation to show up and bring out what we’ve got.

Key Benefits for team members:

  • Showing up at work with authentic, unique, bold ideas and perspectives
  • Breaking the loop of comparison to become one of a kind
  • Overcoming perfectionism to unleash creativity and innovation
  • Crushing the imposter syndrome and trusting your worth
  • Leading with purpose and confidence
  • Promoting and pitching ideas with enthusiasm instead of fear or doubt
  • Developing trustworthiness anchored on your values

Fear Less, Do More

Michelle’s humorous, refreshing and inspiring speaking style has been captivating audiences across the globe. With authentic storytelling, engaging visuals and her 100 Days Without Fear experience, Michelle will show you how to challenge your comfort zone to tap into your full potential.

In this fun and energizing session, you will learn about:

  • Dealing with the unknown / embracing change
  • Seeking GROWTH over SAFETY
  • Leading with accountability
  • Daring to fail
  • The difference between FEARLESS leaders and BRAVE leaders
  • Highlighting our authenticity
  • The REAL enemy of success (not failure)
  • The difference between universal, cultural and personal fears
