Featured Speaker

Brooke Shields
Actress, Model, Author,
and Advocate for Women & Girls
Brooke Shields has spent her life in the spotlight. At the young age of 14, she was America’s Sweetheart, but that didn't spare her the difficulties and insecurities faced by so many.
In a conversation that deftly navigates between heartfelt and humorous, Shields talks candidly about her career trajectory and life in the public eye, living with an alcoholic parent and her own experiences as a mother.
In her recent documentary, Pretty Baby, Shields critiques a toxic culture that perpetuates misogyny, in which she claims is complicit in the sexualization of young girls. In the documentary, Shields also shares her discovery of her own identity, sharing her vulnerability while reflecting on her life, career, and struggles with motherhood. Overcoming those struggles motivated Shields to pave a better path for women and young girls.
Audiences will find her story resonates with their own lives as Shields talks openly about finding the mental and emotional strength to live life to the fullest. Click here for Shields' Full Bio
