Teaching Teens To Conquer Their Fears And Live Their Best Lives Through Goal-Setting, Perseverance, Attitude, and Resilience.
Adrienne is on a mission to save lives one conference and one school assembly at a time. How? Adrienne helps teens develop leadership skills, set goals, and be kind to others so they can take control of their own mental health and persevere even when life tries to break them. With Adrienne, teens learn to build networks of positive people who embrace challenges as a learning opportunity and not the end of the road. She gives teens a strategy on what to do when life hands them sucky situations. She also teaches people how to harness struggles so they can shape a stellar character, use their stubbornness to persevere, and build an unshakable HOPE in a bright future.
Everyone Is Talking
MENTAL HEALTH
Adrienne is determined to give teens a know-how skillset they can use, especially in the quiet moments when no one is looking and they are alone with their thoughts. Adrienne knows 100% of her audience is going to face struggles in their lifetime (adults included). Adrienne has developed a program that shows people how to grab ahold of challenges and use them to their benefit and not their detriment. She is working tirelessly to give teens a skill set and know-how attitude to look a struggle between the eyes and say "Not today, struggle. You don't own me. You don't determine my worth. I WILL WIN!"

There is nothing worse in this world then wasted potential! Our youth are our tomorrow and I am pouring my heart into them.
I became a keynote speaker when I was crowned Miss Kansas a very LONG TIME AGO. The year was 2005. I guess it wasn’t that long ago but if you ask the majority of my audiences they will remind me it was before they were born!
As Miss Kansas I was thrust into the public eye with a microphone in my hand for 365 days. I learned very quickly I had an amazing opportunity to make profound impact.
I know every time I pick up a microphone I have the opportunity to save a life. My keynotes challenge teens to think bigger, take ownership of their attitude, and not be afraid of life's struggles. It is in the struggle we build perseverance, character, and hope.
I'm excited to work with you and your group, but I'm even more excited to see the beautiful transformation as the teens in your grab ahold of their potential.
Some people like to see Adrienne in bullet points.
This is for those people...

A sampling of what people are saying about Adrienne...
"If you have spent any time around Adrienne, you immediately realize she is a dynamo who is committed to young people. She cares about each person she encounters and leaves a little bit of herself (and gum!) with the audience every time she speaks."
"Adrienne is awesome! The process of working with her is seamless... she is such an engaging speaker with an uplifting message. If you are looking for someone who is great on stage and even better with adults and student groups, contact her!
I've worked with Adrienne twice. Both performances were phenomenal! To be in her presence and be in that energy 'of we can do more with our lives and we can achieve a greater level of who we are' is just outstanding to begin with. To hear the feedback of 'that was really good and I feel enlightened' is really cool.
Adrienne delivers far more than what she advertises, creating a whole experience for the audience that captivates from the beginning to the end. Her high energy carries the audience on a journey with laughter, tears, song, dance and inspiration to build off of in the future.
My son always responds with "fine" when I ask how school was, but today he brought up the speaker before I even asked how school was!
In my experience as an educator and student council advisor, I have never met someone so passionate and caring. Her presentation not only inspires students, but motivates them to keep pushing forward. Adrienne is an electryfying speaker!
We recently were blessed to have Adrienne Bulinski address our junior and senior students at our annual retreat. Adrienne is an extremely engaging speaker who draws on life experiences and God's word as she instructs and motivates people to take the necessary steps toward personal success. Our students were dialed in during both of her presentations, and I received positive feedback. If you are looking for a dynamic speaker Adrienne clearly fits that bill.
Blessed to see @AdrienneBulinsk speak at the @IHSA_IL Leadership Conference and educate our @PEHSBALC with practical tips to follow their dreams!

Her message of perseverance is a must to today’s students!

Adrienne’s message of grit and JOY is so memorable because of her experiences and HUMOR!

I am an 8th grader at the middle school you spoke to. Listening to you last week has changed my life and how I feel. You inspired me to push myself and when I fail to get back up. You are the person people need to hear and how your story pushed you and pushed you till you felt like giving up. I thank you so much for your story and how you made me believe in myself!
