Her self-published book became an international bestseller and was named the #1 audiobook in the world and the fifth most-read book of the year on Amazon.

Testimonials

I have been doing what I do for over 20 years - almost 8 with HFMA - and in that time I have never worked with a speaker as engaged as Mel. Her commitment and investment in making ours a successful event is unprecedented. I look forward to working with her on the rest of our program.
– Director, Conferences & Travel, HFMA
I have the honor of leading the search efforts for our annual sales meeting kickoff keynote speaker. Just recently, before a crowd of nearly 500 of my colleagues, we experienced a powerful, impactful, eye-opening keynote to launch our new sales year. Mel Robbins delivered an uplifting message, driven by her 5 second rule theme. She did so with vibrant energy, struck the proper balance and tone, worked the audience and personally connected with our organization. We found her content insightful and motivating, and her genuine, self confident communication style pulled the group towards her. I sincerely appreciate the contributions that Mel made to ensure that this 40th annual sales meeting proved to be so successful.
– General Manager, Sales|Marketing for Jack Henry & Associates
Our audience is still raving about Mel and she scored the highest rating out of all of our presenters. The 5 second rule certainly resonated and I saw this mentioned in our survey comments as well as referenced in several meetings since the event. I was also personally impressed with Mel's presentation and she exceeded my expectations.
– Cisco
Hiring speakers for 35 years, sometimes I think I've heard it all. I knew our attendees would benefit greatly from you, and you were even better than I already anticipated. What impressed me most is that I heard you speak two years ago, I've watched all your videos, and everything you shared in this presentation was new. You have the gift, grace, and tenacity to share your ever evolving wisdom.
– Executive Director, American Payroll Assn
We can't thank you enough for presenting at our National Conference in Dallas, Texas. Your presentation and personal engagement with our Stylists have made a lasting and significant impact on our entire sales force. Our Stylists walked away feeling empowered, encouraged and eager to build their business, cultivate their leadership skills and dive deep with their own personal development. You have truly inspired our company to reach for new heights - thank you.
– CEO, J. Hilburn

I’ve been Speaking professionally for 21 years and work with the largest agencies in the world. I’m a Hall of Fame keynote speaker and a New York Times best selling Author. I have can honestly say in full confidence that Seth Dechtman and his team at Keynote Curator is the best agency I have been honored to work with. I’ve witnessed Seth’s client focused relationship skills On multiple occasions. His clients love him and he’s detail oriented and has great communication skillls. But most importantly, I’ve been on the receiving side of his servant, focused leadership style. He treats me like a valued partner and emulates everything a wingman is.

A Treasure Trove for Anyone Involved in Speaker Selection! As someone deeply involved in the intersection of marketing and technology at AImpact, I find the process of selecting the right keynote speaker to be a critical part of any successful event. Seth Dechtman's "The Keynote Curators" podcast is nothing short of a godsend for anyone facing the challenges and opportunities that come with this task. Seth brings an almost poetic understanding to the power of words, acknowledging that a speech isn't just a scheduled event but a transformative experience that can change the dynamics of an entire room. His enthusiasm for the craft is contagious, making each episode a joy to listen to.
