"My personal stories often relate to the survival of life's 'bumps' and the freedom of forgiveness. It's all about learning to thrive--as an individual or organization--and not just survive. And doing it all while 'finding the funny' in less-than-humorous situations!"

Jean Bailey Robor speaks from the heart of real-life experience. Born in Burlington, North Carolina, she has achieved a high level of success as an award-winning author and motivational/inspirational speaker. 

However, Jean's life was not always filled with joy. Overcoming heartache and adapting to the role of a long-distance mom and caregiver for an aging parent, Jean chose to embrace forgiveness and grace, and adopt a positive attitude...for life! This decision led her on a path to self-discovery, confidence and personal growth. 

Jean participates in presentations for both civic organizations as well as large corporations. She will deliver the perfect dynamic presentation with substance in her down-to-earth Southern style. Never disappointing, she connects and engages with her audience while providing an energizing motivational message. Jean believes a meeting is more effective when the audience is having fun! Motivation and inspiration with a splash of humor is Jean's specialty.

Today, through humor and inspiring slices of life, she helps others realize they have a choice concerning living a joy-filled life. Jean offers engaging and interactive presentations that connect with an audience and challenge them to choose their best life, one day at a time.
