Why is it that we are trained to believe that if we use that bottle of “magic” that we are going to feel better about ourselves? What is it in that bottle that is going to make us feel more beautiful and authentic to others? Why do people think that Botox is going to make people love them more? Many times Kelly was given a bottle of something that was promised to make her scars disappear and make her beautiful. She knew no matter what, it wouldn’t work. She only knew one thing: “that her self-esteem and beauty had to come from her heart and soul not from the faulty magic.”

Let’s face it, in today’s society there is enormous pressure for girls and women to look a certain way and to feel bad about themselves when they compare themselves to magazine and television models. As a burn survivor since the age of two, Kelly has had to redefine her definition of beauty. As a child and as a teen, she faced all of the media and peer group pressures. It wasn’t easy, but she overcame the extra challenges feeling beautiful, esteemed and proud in spite of her facial burn scars.

Kelly Falardeau faced one of her biggest fears, walking the runway and competing in a beauty pageant. All her life she avoided the spotlight, but this time she faced it head on.

Kelly nominated herself for the Every Woman Model Search Competition for two reasons:

1) To challenge herself

2) To prove to the entire world that it is inner beauty, confidence, and self-esteem is what counts and really us makes us attractive.

You will learn how this burn survivor did not feel the need to cover up her scars in order to feel great or to succeed.

In this presentation, you will learn:

• Kelly’s self-esteem secrets to feeling greater than great
• How to stop depending on other people’s opinions
• How to give yourself permission to feel great
• What action to take in order to develop your self-esteem
• This keynote is great for teenagers, women’s groups, men, charities/associations and in the workplace.

Why are most of us so afraid to take risks? Do you often look at other people’s success and think you can’t have the same rewards?

Kelly Falardeau has a unique viewpoint on taking risks. Kelly is a burn survivor from the age of two. Growing up, just leaving the house every day was a huge risk for her. Would she be teased, picked on or ridiculed in some way?

How would she face the risks to rise above them and become a confident child and woman? Here are two clues:

1) You risk nothing, you get nothing

2) It’s far easier to face your fear than to face the fact that you didn’t even try something.

In this inspiring keynote, Kelly shares how she made the choice to take the risks because her desire for the rewards outweighed the risks. She will share her secrets on how she measures and takes risks and how you can succeed if you do it too.

In this keynote, you will learn:

• How to train your brain to think in a different way so that you are more willing to take the risks you need to succeed
• How to ‘just walk out the door’ no matter what you think others might say, think or do to you
• How to decide what you really want so that the rewards are far bigger than any of the risks
• Create a ‘big reward’ plan with ways to follow through on the risks
• This keynote is especially pertinent for teen groups, women’s groups, sales groups and business association groups.

In today’s world, it’s so easy to quit and not even try to succeed, or we’re faced with an obstacle and instead of trying to see it as an opportunity to change directions and move forward, people find it easier to just give up and say they it didn’t work.

This presentation goes deep into Kelly’s life story about how she had her near-death experience when she was only two years old and was given her first opportunity to quit life.

She also talks about the options she was given in her personal and business lives and how if she would have quit the million times she could have, she never would have become the success she is today.

She shows you how quitting just isn’t an option and if the two-year-old didn’t quit, neither should you.
