Book Molly Grantham

Molly owns a stage. She is dynamite at guiding impactful conversations. As a 4x-Emmy-winning journalist and 3x-author, her clever wit with diverse crowds makes her a sought-after global speaker. Fortune 500 companies say, "She can inspire us to go further than we think is possible."  We've also heard: "Power presence," "Masterful at motivating," and, "Big ideas said in relatable ways—she’s captivating."


 

Words matter. Molly's keynotes have been quoted by companies and crowds for years after her talks. Her client list includes Coca-Cola Consolidated, Bank of America, Takeda, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Atrium Health, Novant Health, Dye Culik, and CLA (Clifton Lawson Allen). She is adept at speaking live to 100,000 people a night, sits beside Hollywood celebrities and professional athletes, and, in her 25+-year career, has interviewed 15,000+ people.


 

She is most popular with executives, top-performing business leaders, and women's groups. People who don't want platitudes and appreciate specific takeaways applicable to already-full lives.


 

Most recently, Molly founded a history-making “Bet On Yourself Summit”—a master class in confidence to help people uncover power in themselves. She curated a day-long, soul-filling experience with CEOs, Olympians, and power females to give how-to’s on turning failures into a pathway for success. To bet is to take action. It has teeth. More fierce than to simply “believe.” Her September 2024 Inaugural Summit was the first-ever women's event inside the Carolinas Panthers' NFL stadium—first-ever!—and Summit 2.0 (coming April 2025) sold out in 14 minutes.


 

In 27 years of television news, Molly worked at ABC, NBC, and CBS affiliates. She has appeared on CNN, Today Show, CBS News, the CBS Morning Show, the Huffington Post, and People Magazine. Her social media is its own channel, with a combined 200,000+ engaged followers. One of Molly's four Emmys was for changing state law to help sick children. She was also embedded in both a National Guard unit and a federal gang task force. Career experience gives her the gift to navigate your team's emotions—your group will feel connected when hearing her speak.


 

And she's a mom of three young kids. She knows how to get people to pay attention.


 

Molly’s four most-booked topics are below. However, our clients love how she customizes talks. With her wide range of clear, concise, and accessible language… you tell her what you need. Blue Chip Corporation's deliverables are different from a women's ERG. A group going through a transition might desire a high-energy focus on growth opportunities, whereas global companies combining time zones could prefer a virtual keynote with an inspired vision that crosses international lines. 

Speaking Topics

Bet On Yourself

If not you, then who? Find success in failure and opportunities in reinvention. Molly will lead you to uncover power in yourself, approach change with positivity, and understand transformation. Fine-tune your mindset. Fast-track your fortitude. Find your finesse. You—and your team—will leave looking through the windshield (not the rearview) with knock-your-socks-off takeaways to own specific strategies to #BetOnYourself and see successful results. 

Practice Makes… Progress

We were taught wrong: It's not about being perfect. It's fundamental steps combined with imaginative moves to deliver long-term goals. There is power along the way. Molly will share how a "can-do-it-ness," combined with elasticity and emotional intelligence, add up to big wins. This is a superb talk for teams on ignoring the noise, as development isn't just about individual growth, but a cornerstone for organizations to flourish. 

The Juggle is Real

 A 3-step process on how to:

    - Be authentic.

    - Get it all done.

    - Stay grounded in the process.

A talk to leave you laughing and inspired. A huge hit with women's groups and working parents.

Crucial Conversations

Molly is an expert communicator who knows effective communication is still our best currency. After spending decades in the public eye and its inherent pressures, Molly maximizes the engagement of your team by relaying a 3-word mantra to navigate difficult conversations and cultivate a culture of collaboration. She'll also relay insider-tips about mass communication, storytelling, and media, and show you how to build a community of peers that amplifies belonging and voice.

Testimonials

“Molly Grantham inspires us to go further than what we think is possible.”

“She told us there is no way to attain ‘balance,’ then shared innovative ideas on getting it all done and staying grounded in the process. Refreshing. Non-predictable. Needed.”

“Molly gave our executives the freedom to be who they are, say what they know, and specific takeaways on how to: Bet On Yourself. She is starting a movement. We are here for it.”

"Molly connected us back to purpose, community and what really matters. She nailed it."

"Molly was AMAZING. I loved everything bout her for our event -- her smile. Laugh. Energy. Enthusiasm for life. Style. Presence. Creativity. HER."

"Five years ago, I was searching for a dynamic speaker to kick off the inaugural Women’s Leadership Forum event at Coca-Cola Consolidated. At the time, I knew Molly Grantham as an Emmy award-winning journalist who had begun speaking at local events, and it was exciting to have her as our first guest speaker. I watched Molly as she engaged with over 100 teammates, captivating us all with her own authentic narrative. We left there inspired and re-energized. Fast forward to 2024. I wanted to find a speaker who could connect with our team on a deeply personal level. Someone credible. Someone genuine. And Molly Grantham immediately came to mind. Since she first spoke to our group in 2019, Molly literally has taken her own advice, “Bet on yourself”, and re-invented, re-purposed, re-vitalized her life by relying on the power within. And what a power that has become. Molly’s session, centered around communication, delivered through her own incredible storytelling led to a session which was engaging, unique and challenged our team to remember that words matter. The feedback was incredible."
