Speaking
I’m on a mission to help people get the most out of life. From unlocking success in teens to helping executives create flow in their work day, I’m here to help everyone maximize their potential.
I’ve looked at the research, and it’s not good.
We’re in the middle of a youth mental health crisis, and teens aren’t happy. They’re less social, less independent, and have fewer things they’re passionate about. Adults are more distracted and stretched to their limits than ever before and don’t know how to expand their capacity.
But it doesn’t need to be this way.
We’re the adults in the room, and we can change course.
“Dr. Melanie's keynote at the annual Renegade Summit was the most talked-about session and nearly a year later, fellow Renegades are still talking about the impact she had on their daily lives both personally and professionally. It's one thing to inspire; it's another to motivate, but the true test is getting the content to stick and resonate long after a speaker leaves the stage —Dr. Melanie delivers just that.”

Here are the topics I cover for audiences of all sizes.
(in-person and virtually)
TOPICS
Unlocking Success: The Power of Emotional Intelligence for High Achieving Students
Are you the parent or educator of a high-achieving middle or high schooler? While academic success is crucial, it’s emotional intelligence that truly unlocks your child’s full potential. We explore the vital role emotional intelligence (EI) plays in managing stress, fostering resilience, and building strong social skills.
Audience members learn the benefits of EI in academic and personal life, the importance of EI for high achieving students, and practical strategies for parents to teach EI at home.
Understanding and Creating Flow
As a high flow certified coach, I specialize in helping organizations and high-level executives increase productivity by tapping into the power of flow states. In this dynamic workshop, I reveal the neuroscience behind flow and provide practical steps to induce this optimal performance state.
Attendees will leave equipped with actionable strategies to immediately enhance their productivity, stave off burnout, and expand their capacity, driving efficiency and success within your organization.
“Dr. Melanie is a highly engaging speaker who translates a deep understanding of the science behind her topics into relatable, actionable insights for the audience. After seeing her keynote at a conference, I hired her to present to my company—easily one of the best professional development investments we've made!
Dr. Melanie offered high-value tips to help all of us reduce burnout potential, increase efficiencies, and strengthen productivity. Because my team now has a better understanding of the science of flow, we're getting more work done at a higher quality, while intentionally carving out time to recharge our brains!”

Whether it’s talking to teens or young adults at schools, speaking with parents in an auditorium, or facilitating a workshop for your company, I’ll help you get the most out of life. Have a topic in mind that’s not listed above? Let’s talk.
“I had the pleasure of attending one of Dr. McNally’s keynote addresses on the topic of Flow. Her talk was well organized, easy to follow, and packed full of information, insights, tools, and tips for incorporating flow into your workstream. She held the room’s attention, and we were all taking notes!
I was able to incorporate Dr. McNally’s Flow tools into my own workstream to maintain focus and clarity while writing a 65,000-word rough draft within six weeks.
Her talk was extremely practical and immediately useful. As a former C-Suite executive and top HR leader, I’ve attended hundreds of keynotes and hired many keynote speakers for my own events. If you need a speaker on a topic that will result in immediate change, increased efficiency, and generate a positive buzz about your event, I can confidently recommend Dr. McNally for your speaking needs.”
