Bring Leeza to Your Stage
The best talks don’t just inspire us—they change the way we see ourselves and the choices we make every day.
Whether I’m exploring the power of fierce optimism, resilient leadership, purpose, caregiving, and thriving in life’s third act, or sharing practical wisdom about relationships, reinvention, confidence, and living well, every presentation is rooted in one goal: helping people leave stronger than they arrived.
My perspective has been shaped by more than 25 years as a social entrepreneur and health advocate, years in television and on red carpets, and, most importantly, by life’s beautiful, messy, unexpected moments. I’ll make your audience laugh, reflect, and perhaps even rethink what they believed was possible.
I don’t believe in talking at people. I believe in having a conversation that is authentic, thought-provoking, and immediately useful. Because the most powerful ideas aren’t just heard—they’re lived.
CAREGIVING & THE CARING ECONOMY
Caregiving isn’t a niche issue. It’s a workforce issue, a leadership issue, a health issue — and sooner or later, it’s a human issue for almost every one of us.
Through her work with Leeza’s Care Connection and her own family’s journey with Alzheimer’s disease, Leeza has spent more than two decades on the front lines of family caregiving.
Her signature message, “Take Your Oxygen First,” challenges the outdated notion that good caregivers should simply give until there’s nothing left. She offers a more honest conversation about resilience, asking for help, protecting your own identity, and building the infrastructure families need to keep going.
For employers and organizations, Leeza brings caregiving out of the shadows and into the conversation — where it belongs.
ALZHEIMER’S: LIGHT IN THE HARD PLACES
Alzheimer’s changed Leeza’s family. It also changed the direction of her life.
After watching both her grandmother and her mother face the disease, Leeza turned personal pain into purpose, creating resources and community for families navigating dementia and other chronic illnesses.
Her message neither minimizes the difficulty nor surrenders to it. Leeza speaks about holding both — grief and gratitude, fear and hope, loss and love — and finding light without softening the truth.
It’s a powerful message for healthcare audiences, caregiver organizations, women’s groups and anyone whose life has been touched by dementia.
FEARLESS AGING
What if getting older isn’t about becoming less of who we were — but becoming more of who we are?
Leeza takes on our culture’s complicated relationship with aging with humor, candor and a healthy refusal to disappear.
Fearless Aging is about staying visible, curious, relevant and fully engaged in your own life. It’s about letting go of the exhausting pursuit of youth and embracing the confidence, perspective and freedom that can come with experience.
At a time when millions of people are asking What’s next for me?, Leeza’s answer is simple: You’re not done. You’re evolving.
RESILIENCE, REINVENTION & SHARING YOUR LIGHT
Careers change. Families change. Bodies change. Plans change.
The question isn’t whether life will require us to reinvent ourselves. It’s whether we’ll have the courage to do it.
With humor and stories from television, business, caregiving and her own life’s unexpected pivots, Leeza explores what it takes to remain visible and valuable without allowing outside recognition to determine our worth.
Her message invites audiences to stop waiting for permission, break up with the version of themselves they’ve outgrown, and share their light.
WHY LEEZA?
Leeza doesn’t speak at an audience. She connects with one.
She combines the polish of a veteran broadcaster, the credibility of a nationally recognized advocate, the perspective of a social entrepreneur and the vulnerability of someone who has lived the lessons she shares.
The result is a keynote that can make people laugh, think, feel seen — and leave ready to do something differently.
Caregiving. Alzheimer’s. Fearless aging. Resilience. Reinvention. Purpose.
These aren’t just speaking topics.
They’re the conversations we’re all having — or soon will be.
