Lynn O'Dowd:Motivational Speaker/Keynote Performer

Accepts Online Payments

Motivational Speaker from Chicago, IL

What exactly do clients get when they book you?

“We needed your enthusiasm, words of wisdom, advice, and passion. Our office had become stagnant, and you helped to “supercharge” us!! The audience was 50/50 males to females. 100% had positive feedback! Everyone took away something good to use in their arsenal. Our office now seems more normal, energized, and eager to step out of their comfort zone and move forward -a win-win situation for all of us! Thank you for being the catalyst to bringing out the “Inner Superstars” of our company!!!”

How would clients describe you and your services?

“Lynn is absolutely amazing! After COVID lockdown, we were finally able to hold our annual, in-person training, bringing together national teams. Lynn was the main speaker, and she didn't disappoint. Her message of personal growth really resonated with our group and the uniquely entertaining way in which she presented it was priceless. Afterwards and throughout the rest of the day and evening, several in attendance expressed their enjoyment and appreciation. I would highly recommend her!”

What is it you love about being a Motivational Speaker in Chicago, IL?

The right speech can change someone's life. The right speech changed my life and had since put me on a path to tell as many people as possible about reaffirming hope we all have. I take pride in acting as a bridge to help others cross over into their next season. What truly separates us from a growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset? The willingness to reach for more. More isn't stuff - it's information. The right information can cause a revolution. Let's get a revolution started in your life!

How would clients describe you and your services?

"Had a great time with Matthew at our event! He was absolutely a pleasure to have and extremely engaging, even with a large audience. Our members had an amazing time and learned quite a few life lessons from Matthew; something extremely important for women navigating their way through life in their early twenties. I would 100% recommend Matthew for your next event!" - Gig ID: 4382115
