Keynote Speaker

Amelia Rose Earhart

Amelia Rose Earhart

 

Amelia Rose Earhart was given the name Amelia Earhart, which prompted her to learn to fly. As a professional speaker, pilot, author, and artist, she faced this question head-on and chose to fully commit, completing her private, instrument, and commercial flight training with the dream of flying around the world, much like the legendary American hero she was named after, Amelia Mary Earhart.

In 2014, she achieved her goal of circumnavigating the globe along a 28,000 nautical mile route in a single-engine aircraft. She also has a fifteen-year background as a helicopter and breaking news reporter and was the former president of the Fly With Amelia Foundation. Amelia believes the most important lesson from her journey is that true success and personal growth require embracing life's turbulence by staying agile amidst the storms that inevitably arise on our paths.

In her recently published book, "Learn to Love the Turbulence: ‘Flight Lessons’ on becoming the pilot in command of your own journey," Amelia shares insights on how to think like a pilot, moving through life with agility and confidence.
