Allison Massari
Extraordinary Triumph After Burning Alive
Allison Massari is recognized as one of North America's Top 10 Best Motivational Speakers by Meetings & Conventions Magazine for three consecutive years. She was also honored as a main platform speaker at the Million Dollar Round Table conference, presenting to an audience of 8,600. As an international keynote speaker, executive coach, and visual artist, Allison has made it her mission to ignite vitality, boost morale, and inspire confidence across the globe. Her clients describe her as “riveting,” “heartwarming,” “thought-provoking,” “bold,” and “life-changing.”
Allison's path to success was forged through overcoming extraordinary personal tragedies. In 1998, she survived a near-fatal car crash at 60 mph, leaving her trapped and severely burned. Just three years later, she was struck again by another high-speed collision, which resulted in a traumatic brain injury. Her long journey from these devastating events to healing and self-mastery has shaped her unique approach to resilience and recovery. Today, she lives a life beyond anything she ever imagined—and she’s committed to sharing her story to inspire change in others and in the organizations that support them.
Through the power of storytelling, Allison weaves humor, surprise, and raw, heart-wrenching experiences to engage audiences. Her transformative journey allows listeners to understand the answers to some of life’s most profound questions and provides them with practical tools to manage change and adversity. Her deeply moving talks equip audiences with a new vision for overcoming challenges and thriving in the face of difficulty.
As Allison shares, “The same internal fire and ‘command of self’ that I needed to heal my life is exactly what has fueled my professional success. Science shows that our resilience and sense of well-being are directly linked to the bottom line. This is the type of personal and professional development I embrace fully and love to teach.”
In addition to her work as a speaker and coach, Allison is an accomplished visual artist, having created, placed, and sold fine art to international collectors and Fortune 500 companies like General Mills and Lockheed Martin for over 25 years. Her artwork is featured in the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Florida, and serves as a backdrop to her keynotes, adding a powerful and unique visual element to her presentations.
