Molly Gimmel

Leadership isn’t about a job title—it’s about influence. And the biggest obstacle standing between you and your leadership potential isn’t external—it’s what's happening inside your own head.

In this engaging and thought-provoking talk, Molly breaks down what leadership truly is (and isn’t) and reveals the surprising power of mental chatter in shaping your confidence, decision-making, and impact. You’ll uncover how your inner voice can either hold you back or propel you forward—and, more importantly, how to train it to work for you instead of against you. You'll also discover the key leadership mindsets that leaders need to master to become a more effective leader that others want to follow: Confidence, Integrity, and Authenticity.

Through personal stories, real-world insights, and practical strategies, this talk will challenge you to rethink leadership, take control of your inner narrative, and step into the role of a leader that people want to follow.

In a world obsessed with perfection, the leaders who truly leave a mark aren’t the ones who never break — they’re the ones who rise stronger from every fracture.

Audiences will leave inspired to own their full story, to lead with authenticity rather than image, and to transform every setback into a source of strength.
