Guest Speaker, Kiersten Hathcock, Shark Tank winner, TEDx speaker. Instead of telling you what’s possible, Kiersten will show exactly how she did it — and provide tools to do it yourself.
Most keynote speakers tell you what’s possible. Kiersten Hathcock will show you exactly how she did it — and hand you the tools to do it yourself. She is not a theorist. She is not a consultant who has studied success from the outside.
Kiersten is a former television marketing executive who walked away from a stable career, taught herself an entirely new craft, built an internationally recognized brand from her garage with zero funding and zero formal training, and then sat across from some of the most intimidating investors in America on national television — and won.
What she learned along the way about brand building, pitching, resilience, and the kind of gut-level decision-making that separates businesses that survive from businesses that thrive — that is what she brings to your stage. Kiersten tells a story so compelling often the room goes completely quiet. She then delivers insight so practical the audience immediately starts taking notes. She has spoken to: Corporate Teams & All-Hands Events — bringing a message of resilience, adaptability, and trust in collective instinct that resonates from the C-suite to the front line. Business Associations & Chambers of Commerce — delivering keynotes that celebrate entrepreneurial grit while offering concrete, actionable frameworks their members can apply immediately.
Startup Ecosystems & Pitch Competitions — drawing on her Shark Tank experience and 20+ years in the entrepreneurial trenches to give founders the mindset and tactical edge they need to compete. University Business Programs — consistently earning some of the highest audience engagement scores faculty have ever recorded, including standing Q&A sessions that run well past the allotted time.
