McKenna Reitz, an Alopecia warrior, turned her “loss” into her
greatest opportunity. In this episode, we talk about her transition
from being a high school teacher, to following her purpose and
speaking on stage.
I met McKenna in line at a conference and we became fast friends,
saving each other seats, having lunch, and dancing to her friend
Elec Simon, one of the original members of STOMP, jam out with a
5-person drumming band.
In this episode, McKenna shares:
- How to create a speaking career
- How she got booked on The Jennifer Hudson Show
- How she shows up consistently online
- How to think about personal branding in your business
McKenna Reitz is a sought-after TEDx speaker, an award-winning
high school AP Psychology teacher, and an alopecia warrior who
empowers others to reframe life’s challenges into gifts and
opportunities so they can lead with confidence and
purpose.
After losing all her hair due to Alopecia, McKenna uses her journey
of having this autoimmune disease to help others overcome the loss
by resetting the mindset of their “loss” into growth and
opportunities.
McKenna has been featured in Forbes, Woman’s Day, USA Today, Yahoo!
News, U.S. News & World Report, Good Housekeeping, Business
