Mandi O

Clarksville, Maryland, United States

I see myself as an inspirational speaker, trainer, consultant, and writer who, through my own life experiences, inspires others to achieve their maximum potential.

My down-to-earth speaking style reaches into the souls of my audience as I share how my experiences have shaped my philosophy of ‘Wake Up Jazzed Up’ (WuJu). I encourage others to look deep into themselves, motivating them to set goals to maximize their potential, placing fear and doubts aside and pushing through the barriers to succeed in life.
My presentations show any audience how passion, purpose and persistence make anything possible and my stories and affable nature inspire others to look deep within to accomplish more in all areas of life.

I am comfortable in a private setting, an intact work team, a boardroom of 50 executives, or on-stage in front of hundreds and feel honored to share my story with others.

My belief is that passion, decisive action, collaboration, and determination will lead to better opportunities, better understanding of others, a better organization, a better life and ultimately, a better world.

I founded Mandi’s Cancer Aid Foundation (www.mcaf.org) to educate, assist and support women and men living with cancer in West Africa.

I am currently writing my memoir...
