Motivational Speaking
Phyllis Dodd is a retired physical education teacher who spent most of her life participating in sports and outdoor activities. After losing her leg in a serious car accident in 2017, Phyllis had to overcome physical and psychological challenges to accept a very different way of life. Throughout this process, Phyllis began speaking to groups in North Carolina about her experiences.
Phyllis takes the time to customize her presentation to the needs of your group. She speaks on a wide variety of topics, such as overcoming adversity, using positive attitude in overwhelming situations, learning to find a sense of normalcy after big changes, how to be tenacious in the face of a huge obstacle, understanding the difference that one person can make, realizing that you're never too old to change direction in your life, and much, much more.
In her role as a Motivational Humorist, Phyllis uses her experiences in stand-up comedy to bring her audiences a message that is upbeat and uplifting.
