Juana Mikels, a former corporate marketing executive at Xerox, now shares her inspiring story as an author and motivational speaker. Overcoming adversity in her own life, Juana draws from personal experiences, including raising a daughter born blind with hearing loss. Co-founding Blind Notes Music, a nonprofit where her daughter Mary performs as a motivational singer, their powerful story of resilience illuminates Juana's message. Through nationwide speaking engagements, Juana empowers audiences to face challenges, find opportunity, and transform adversity. Her presentations, often featuring Mary's uplifting performances, touch hearts and inspire others to dream big and find success amidst their own challenges exemplified by encounters with Andrea Bocelli and Mary's participation in American Idol.
Juana has been married for 43 years to Terry, and they have four fantastic grown children and four adorable "littles," (grandchildren!). She loves fresh flowers, traveling, hosting events, eating at favorite restaurants, dancing and laughing
at the small stuff.
She seeks to be transparent while helping others succeed. Juana believes every speech and life
needs to have humor in it while also touching the deepest and most meaningful
part inside each of us! Tag: inspiring keynote speaker motivational keynote speaker
