“If anybody needs to be inspired to get up when you’ve been kicked down, and say thank you to whoever or whatever gave you the boot, I’m your speaker!” – Amelia Frahm

With a professional career that began when she was hired to convince South Texans to build a nuclear power plant in their backyard, Amelia Frahm has survived and can speak with candor on just about anything.

She is an expert at tackling contentious topics and putting them in a format that both children and adults find entertaining as well as educational.

Amelia has appeared on radio and TV segments across the country and has been a member of the National Cancer Survivors Day Speaker’s Bureau since 2002.
