TEDx + WOMEN’S MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER
Start Being Seen
Michelle B. Griffin delivers high-energy keynotes and interactive workshops that help women stop holding back, own their expertise, and put themselves forward so they can lead confidently and achieve more in their careers and businesses
Women are leading teams, serving clients, solving problems, and carrying ideas that could make a difference. Yet fear of judgment, perfectionism, uncertainty, and waiting for permission keep too much of that expertise from being put forward.
Michelle helps women in leadership and business take ownership of their professional value, personal brands and reputation so they're prepared to contribute their expertise, advocate for their growth, build influence, and step into opportunities that strengthen their careers, teams, organizations, and businesses.
Putting yourself out there can feel deeply personal. What will people think? Am I qualified enough? What if I fail? Michelle helps audiences shift the focus from proving themselves to contributing something that matters.
Michelle combines relatable stories, contagious energy, audience participation with Michelle's P.Y.O.T. framework that moves audiences from hesitation to action and achievement in their careers and businesses.
