Introduction: EPIC LIFE. EPIC LEADERS. EPIC TEAMS. Sometimes life demands more than mere resilience and grit. Our boulders must be our superpower, not our kryptonite… Real power and epic results come when we learn to embrace these challenges, not fear them. When we see the opportunities that often come disguised as obstacles... “I believe that every one of us has the ability to unleash the most epic version of ourselves regardless of the circumstances. So when we combine our own individual greatness with the other unique greatnesses of our team, we can achieve a level of EPIC success that would have previously been impossible to achieve. Epic results begin with an epic inner game. And that’s my passion: teaching others REAL STRATEGIES of how to learn to play the inner game to win. How to unleash the most EPIC version of YOU.” MERIDITH'S KEYNOTE TOPICS include: UNLEASH THE EPIC YOU Inspiration and Strategies To Show Up As The Best Version of You.... Is your team showing signs of resilience fatigue? Are you looking for new ways to help your leaders navigate through times of unpredictability, challenge and change?

Your team will be following along with each twist and turn as the story unfolds, but throughout the story they will be learning strategy after strategy of how to ramp up their own inner game, especially when facing circumstances that at first glance may seem “impossible”.

Ward President and CEO / Gulfside Healthcare Services Inc. THE SKY IS THE LIMIT: THE BOOK THAT CAPTURES IN REAL TIME THE FOUR MONTHS IN 2016 THAT TRANSFORMED THE IMPOSSIBLE INTO THE I'M POSSIBLE Top inspirational speaker and GRIT and resilience expert Meridith Alexander’s book that started it all! How the crushing blow from a random boulder taught this Mother/Daughter team not how to face death but how to choose to fully live. A journey of inspiration and discovery like no other. On February 19, 2016 Meridith's youngest daughter Schuyler, a recent graduate from Yale, was crushed by a boulder while traveling in Colombia, South America. The doctors weren't sure that they could keep her alive long enough for Meridith to get down there. On that plane, Meridith realized that she had to make a decision. She could let those circumstances define her forever as "the mother of a child that was crushed by a boulder" -- or she could dig deep within herself and become the reluctant hero that her daughter needed right then. Described as a "must read if you want to become the best version of yourself", THE SKY IS THE LIMIT became the #1 Hot New Release on Amazon in the motivational category the night that it was released. This book captures the actual posts that have inspired readers all around the world. INSPIRATIONAL. INSIGHTFUL. EMERGE FROM THIS READ AS THE BEST VERSION OF YOU! Other KEY NOTE, SMALL GROUP AND VIRTUAL TALK TOPICS INCLUDE: AMPLIFY YOUR G.R.I.T. AND RESILIENCE How can we leaders emerge from times of challenge as even better versions of ourselves? How do we nurture and amplify the greatness, resilience and impact within our teams? This keynote explores how learning to master 3 of the critical components of G.R.I.T. can transform your biggest obstacles into unforeseen opportunities even in the face of change and unpredictability. Meridith’s innovative message inspires audiences to look at their own goals from a new perspective. Using innovative strategies and perspectives, she leaves audiences with tools to get out of their own way so that they can go forward united with even more passion, clarity and vision. Perhaps to go on to achieve results that might previously have seemed impossible. In this inspirational and empowering program, Meridith shares the impact that a deliberately focused mindset has had on her own journey– a journey that began when a random boulder came plummeting down a mountain in South America, injuring her youngest daughter so severely that she was not expected to live. Through the twists and turns of this inspiring story, the audience sees how Meridith’s unwavering vision and focus on the “I’m Possible” seemed to influence the results — even when the desired outcome was something that most believed to be impossible. Combining her own experiences with case studies through the decades, Meridith helps her audiences learn new techniques for overcoming the limitations and conditioning that often lead to fear, self-doubt and “thinking small”. The outcome of Meridith’s keynote will be an audience that feels a dramatically boosted sense of momentum and positivity with an eagerness to embrace the “I’m Possible” and create thriving new breakthroughs even in the presence of dramatic change, personal challenge and uncertainty. Key Learning Points --Discover the keys to creating a mindset that thrives in the midst of change and unpredictability --Learn new techniques for setting powerful goals, tapping into overlooked possibilities and performing at your highest level --Pull back the curtain on the “blind spot thinking” that prevents most people from transforming the “impossible” into the “I’m Possible” --Understand how the hidden language of your inner narrative can be the catalyst for consistent success Redefining The Way Leaders Embrace Their Boulders How can we consistently show up playing at our highest level regardless of the circumstances? How can we tap into new levels of potential within ourselves so that we can go on to achieve even more extraordinary levels of success? Meridith Alexander provides a captivating, visionary experience for high-level leadership and team members by combining her real-life story of living through the “impossible” with actionable strategies for uncovering the audience’s own visionary potential and for inspiring even more greatness, passion, and impact from their teams. This keynote redefines the way team members and leaders embrace their big boulders. Team members and leaders go from resisting change and unpredictability to seeing the massive potential within that change. Audiences emerge understanding how the big boulders can actually amplify their ability to influence and impact change — enhancing their ability to create a positive, deliberate vision that helps team members begin to embrace their own value and purpose within a bigger mission. It is an experience of “coming even more alive” that results in showing up more boldly both at work and at home. By combining her own incredible story with unique tools and strategies, Meridith Alexander inspires teams and leaders to consistently opt to play at their highest level, to tap into their most visionary self, and to thrive in the new quantum world ahead where the speed is fast, change is frequent and life is unpredictable — and where those big boulders often lead toward “impossibilities” that will become the next generation’s “new normal”. Key Learning Points: --Understand the power of your biggest boulders to ignite your highest levels of success --Learn how to embrace disruption and unfamiliarity as your rocket fuel --Explore how visionary thinking creates unstoppable momentum --Discover actionable strategies to achieve even more forward momentum within your team regardless of the circumstances [Gamification add-ons available] FOR THE FULL LIST OF OPTIONS INCLUDING GAMIFICATION ELEMENTS, PLEASE VISIT THE MERIDITH ALEXANDER WEB SITE.

Meridith was our Keynote Speaker on the first day of our 3 day event. She was fantastic in every way. People were talking about how good she was and how her story and message had touched them for the rest of the event. Her energy was contagious and she had the whole group engaged. Meridith brought along her daughter, Schuyler, and what a wonderful addition to the session. Meridith's fee was reasonable and well worth every penny. I would recommend Meridith to any one looking for a Keynote and/or motivational speaker. Thank you again Meridith & Schuyler.

Meridith spoke at our sales meeting and did a fantastic job of combining her life story with the challenges each of us face professionally and personally. At some point in the room there was not a dry eye and her one hour presentation was over in a blink as she was captivating the entire time. I love when people tell a story to relay and relate content and hers is powerful and inspiring. Our group usually has a “sales” speaker, but Meridith did it all with motivation, inspiration, practical tips and a challenge to walk away with. Her communication was incredible throughout the booking process. I found her on Thumbtack and she responded so quickly and her emails, texts and calls were proactive. Every time I would reach out she was prompt with a response. She also showed up early, which was appreciated. I would highly recommend Meridith and have received such positive feedback from my team on her presentation, content and energy. She was a perfect fit and presenter for our group.

I saw Meridith as part of a leadership training workshop my company was holding. Having been to a few in the past, I was expecting to get some good information as there are usually a few good soundbites. I was captivated by her energy and enthusiasm from the moment she appeared. The passion she had while speaking was immense; which, from the story she told made sense. The experiences she covered mixed in with the adaptation to life and business were so on point, I came away with much more than I bargained for. I made copious notes of the strategies that I can personally see being of use to me in the coming months and years. I look forward to seeing Meridith again.

Meridith was a speaker at our AAPC (American Academy of Professional Coders) virtual meeting and was an inspiration to us all. We usually have speakers advising us on code changes or new medical policies, but Meridith's message was a breath of fresh air. It was a message of hope and transformation, a how-to of making our lives better and our purpose greater. Her story is moving and inspirational, to say the least, and everyone who heard it was very impressed with her presentation. We plan to ask her to speak again. We loved having her join us.
