Shelley Paxton

Keynote Speaker, Badass Advisor, and Simon & Schuster Author

Shelley is a 26-year advertising and marketing veteran whose legacy is imprinted on iconic global brands like McDonald’s, Visa, and Harley-Davidson. At the pinnacle of her career, as Chief Marketing Officer of Harley-Davidson, she was shocked to find herself feeling success-empty instead of success-full. That awakening led her on a profound journey that became her mission, business, and bestselling book, Soulbbatical: A Corporate Rebel’s Guide to Finding Your Best Life.
 
Now Chief Soul Officer, she works with leaders and teams to redefine success and reshape cultures in ways that celebrate humanity, wellbeing, and soul. Her influential work is an empowering antidote to corporate burnout, attrition, and disengagement. It’s gained recognition on platforms like NBC, CBS, Forbes, Inc., and Thrive Global, making her a respected thought leader, advisor, and sought-after keynote speaker who’s been called “the next Brené Brown.”  Her energizing and actionable keynotes are creating Ripples of Impact (ROI) in lives, businesses, and culture.
 
Shelley is on a mission to liberate a billion souls from success-empty to success-full. She’s based in Chicago and obsessed with mental health advocacy and the color orange. For more info: www.shelleypaxton.com
