Speaker & facilitator

Heather is a true GEM! She is so polite, talented and really knows how to connect with her audience. We recently hired Heather to speak at an event and she showed up more than prepared to do her part. Not only did the attendees in her session appreciate all that she shared with them, but Heather helped us cover using her talents when we were put into a bind with a late keynote speaker. Heather promptly pivoted and entertained our over 200 guests with no prior notice. We highly recommend Heather and we can't wait to work with her again!

I have hired several speakers over the years and I can say with confidence, Heather’s connection to the audience and genuine interest in knowing them, put her at the top of the list for speakers. Her topic was what we needed, exactly when we needed to hear it.

Working with Heather was fantastic! She's an excellent communicator, extremely organized, and willing to craft her talk around the topics and value we want to provide at our events. For the Possibility Summit Heather was willing to have several meetings to learn more about our goals for the day and what we wanted attendees to get out of the event. She then sent us several topic ideas and then titles, and we landed on the perfect idea for the day. At the event she delivered a high-energy, value-packed talk that had the room buzzing. It was awesome!

Shout out for Heather McDougall and her presentation at the virtual women's business conference! It was so meaningful and powerful. My mind is spinning on my passions, my dreams, and goals! I am so grateful I had the chance to watch and listen in to something so beautiful! Thank you for being you Heather!

Heather is a keynote speaker who brings value beyond her contract. I hired her to deliver a keynote and also a breakout session at my organization’s Women’s Business Conference where she delivered inspiration through her stories, humor and music. Both sessions Heather stayed with attendees long after the session to answer questions and offer perspective. The attendees truly praised her clarity, vulnerability, and to-the-point wisdom. I would absolutely recommend Heather for your event.

Thank you for speaking for the Umoja Writing Workshops. I’m still doing those nostril breathing exercises, and the students are still raving about you. You did a great job and there is so much in store through what you offer. Thank you!

Heather’s personal story on the effects of burnout is compelling. She uses real life examples and a refreshing delivery style to engage her audience. Heather’s story is all at once inspiring, humorous, and heartfelt.

My experience at your [Sustainability as your Mindset] event was life-changing, as cliche as that is to say. During your lecture, I felt as if I couldn’t write down enough. Everything you had to say made complete sense to me, and I connected with your theory like it was a missing piece to my thought process....I know I’ll continue this way of thinking as I continue my graduate studies and as I move forward in starting my businesses.

I felt both grounded in my vision/passion as well as inspired to think about my future goal in diverse & innovative ways. I am a visual learner and felt supported in the creative ways that Heather set up the space, (influential books, poster board to clarify the talking points, journaling, even a musical instrument!) I left with a buzz of excitement and I would definitely recommend Heather’s work!
