Keynote Speaking

Inspire. Equip. Transform.

Amy Sins is a New Orleans keynote speaker whose story of resilience began when Hurricane Katrina flooded her home and upended her community. Out of that chaos came lessons that now help leaders, organizations, and communities thrive in uncertainty.

Today, Amy brings those lessons to stages worldwide—blending Louisiana storytelling, real-world disaster leadership, and practical frameworks tested in the toughest conditions. From the TEDx stage to the United Nations Global Platform, she equips audiences with the clarity and confidence to lead through disruption.


What Makes Amy Different

Most keynote speakers talk theory. Amy brings lived experience.

  • Proven under pressure. From rebuilding after Katrina to coordinating humanitarian aid in crises around the globe, Amy knows what it means to lead when the stakes are highest.

  • A voice for resilience. She helps audiences see that resilience isn’t born—it’s built, one step at a time, and always in community.

  • Frameworks that work. Her SPARK model and Trust Networks approach have guided both disaster response and corporate teams facing upheaval.

  • A storyteller at heart. Amy’s New Orleans roots infuse every talk with authenticity, warmth, and connection.


What Audiences Take Away

Amy’s keynotes go beyond inspiration. Audiences leave with:

  • Actionable frameworks for leading teams in times of uncertainty

  • New perspectives on resilience, adaptability, and decision-making

  • Practical strategies for building trust and community in organizations

  • The confidence to take the first step—even when the path isn’t clear
