Meet Dr. Michelle Machado

A speaker and podcast guest who shifts something in the audience after she speaks.

Michelle has given two TEDx talks with 2 million views. She’s held keynote stages from Google to LEAP in Riyadh. With a PhD, an MBA, and two decades spent shaping leaders across four continents, she brings a perspective that is both deeply researched and deeply human.

Her work sits at the intersection of neuroscience, identity, and what it means to be human in a world that keeps pulling us away from ourselves. She draws on her own journey — navigating international relocations, career reinvention, and raising a family — to speak with the kind of honesty that makes rooms go quiet.

Her book, Alive Again (Simon & Schuster), distils everything she’s learned into a framework for lasting, identity-level change.

Book Michelle to speak on your podcast, at your next event, or as a keynote speaker.
