Your voice has the power to change your life. And yet, many women miss opportunities because they don’t speak up.

Karen Laos is a keynote speaker, executive advisor and TEDx coach, who transforms how high-achieving women communicate in high-stakes moments. Fondly called The Confidence Cultivator, she has empowered professionals at NASA, Google, Facebook, Netflix, and Sephora.

Her mission: to silence self-doubt in 10 million women by giving them communication tools that drive tangible results in the boardroom and beyond, using her trademarked framework, The Confidence Cocktail™. Karen's clients consistently report significant outcomes: securing promotions, winning negotiations, and attracting ideal clients.

Karen's unique approach to confidence cultivation began at age six when she successfully negotiated her first flea market purchase. Now, she’s a three-time bestselling author and podcast host in the top 3% globally (Ignite Your Confidence). Karen's books: Trust Your Own Voice: Growing Your Influence Through Confident Communication, Invisible No More: Stepping Into the Spotlight, and Unshakeable.

During the entire month of her 50th birthday, Karen fulfilled her lifelong dream of living in Manhattan.
