ZACH KITSCHKE, CANVA CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER

HI, I'M JESS EKSTROM!
I’m an author, speaker, and the founder of Headbands of Hope and Mic Drop Workshop. Here’s my story…
In college I started my company, Headbands of Hope, based on the idea that SMALL ACTS OF KINDNESS can make a HUGE IMPACT.




Now, Headbands of Hope has donated over 1 MILLION headbands to kids with illnesses and reached every hospital in America and 22 countries.

It's a page turner that you won't be able to put down until you've finished, but holds lessons that will reveal themselves to you for a lifetime.
MARC RANDOLPH
Netflix Co-Founder & First CEO
Over the years, I’ve realized that my success is not about how far I can reach, but HOW FAR I CAN HELP OTHERS REACH.
Which is why I launched Mic Drop Workshop:
HELPING THOUSANDS OF WOMEN TELL THEIR STORIES AS PAID KEYNOTE SPEAKERS AND AUTHORS.
