Lois Barth
Lois Barth grew up hearing her mom's drive-by pearls of wisdom: "Lois, people are like computers; how they respond depends on which buttons you press." Her response? "Mom, I asked you to pass the Lucky Charms. Must we have a 'learning moment' at 7:30 AM?" While Lois made a joke of it, it was clearly in her DNA to understand how people learn, communicate, feel celebrated, and are motivated to thrive.
What started as a personal passion ended up as a professional more-than-20-year career. Her journey to Human Development Expert, Motivational Speaker, and Provocateur/Jester developed via health care practitioner, actress, comedienne, singer, storyteller, plus a whole slew of "odd jobs" as an oversized Girl Scout, life-size Barney and—her claim to fame—singing telegrams in a gorilla suit with a Mae West accent.
Often referred to as the "Bette Midler of Women's Empowerment," Lois uses humor, stories and science in her high-energy interactive programs to "provoke" her audiences to fire their inner perfectionist, turn lousy life lessons into luscious life lessons, and get out of their "discomfort zones" so they can have the Courage to SPARKLE. She does this not only by sharing her professional expertise, but by using the same principles that have helped her maintain a forty-pound weight loss for over twenty years, overcome debilitating stage fright and chronic negative self-talk, and navigate the rocky road of career challenges and running her own business.
Creator of Smart Sexy TV: What Nobody Talks About But Everyone Needs to Hear, Lois has a BA in Human Development and multiple coaching certifications. She was the life coach for three national makeover campaigns; SELF, Fitness, and FITSTUDIO (Sears) in which, thus far, 1.8 million people have participated.
Lois is the "Stress Less...SPARKLE More" Lady for C.T. Style TV (ABC affiliate) and has been published and quoted in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Woman's Day, and Elle.com, to name a few. She has spoken to groups at L'Oréal, the Red Cross, Capital One Bank, the Society of Women Engineers, and the United States Navy, amongst many others, and is a contributing writer for three anthologies about women and empowerment.

You're Not Falling Apart, You're Breaking Open! Using Change to Reboot and Revitalize Your Life
In this humorous keynote that can also be a workshop, we look at how closely the process of change for humans parallel the butterfly's resistant but rich metamorphosis or melta-morphosis (feels like you're having a meltdown but you're really giving yourself wings to fly). We examine each of the six stages the caterpillar goes through to...
