HI, I'M JESS EKSTROM!
I’m an author, motivational speaker, and the founder of Headbands of Hope and Mic Drop Workshop. Here is 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.

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®️: a company with the sole purpose of helping women become seen and valued as thought leaders and motivational speakers.
