Meg managed to tackle serious topics with a lighthearted touch, making the entire experience enjoyable and relatable for all attendees. Our guests left with smiles on their faces and valuable take aways from Meg’s presentation to carry forward with them in both their work and everyday lives.

Meg Soper has lit up the SSM OHS Conference stage twice, and if it were possible, I’d gladly have her return every year. She’s undoubtedly one of my personal favorites!
Meg’s professionalism shines through in her meticulous preparation, making collaboration with her a breeze. Her ability to engage and establish genuine connections with every member of the audience is truly remarkable.
With Meg, not only do we find ourselves thoroughly entertained, but we also leave the conference having gained valuable insights. She leaves us all laughing and learning!
Meg! I’ve heard such lovely feedback about your talk on Tuesday night. Everyone was so impressed that you were able to work so many people into the conversation after chatting people up during cocktail hour and dinner. Thank you so much, again, for being a delightful feature of our special evening!
Thank you so much for coming to the PD Day…You were amazing, and the day was a huge success! The staff had only wonderful things to say about you and a few even said they had felt like they were starting to get into a negative head space, and you helped them realize it and come out of it so THANK YOU for that! That is so great to hear! I truly appreciate your time and effort with the staff. Thanks again!

The speaker was great and the energy she displayed was contagious.
The guest speaker was on point, on topic, and very relatable (and extremely funny)! Great choice!
I really enjoyed the guest speaker. I did not realize how much fear and anxiety I was holding onto regarding COVID; she helped inspire me to think more positively.
The guest speaker was outstanding. She was dynamic, comedic, but also knowledgeable about the medical field because of her history as a nurse. She kept it lighthearted and made it an enjoyable experience.
We had fantastic feedback regarding your Keynote! You hit all the nails on the head…On a five-point scale, your average was 4.8. AMAZING!!

“Tangible and connected to our group with knowledge of our work.”

I was at the TBA Women in Banking last week, and I wanted to connect with you to say Thank You! Your presentation was beyond hilarious. I laughed harder than I have in years. I was rolling and crying and even bawling at times. I told my husband and children all about you – for days I kept bringing you up. You were so amazing, so hilarious, so incredible. I have seen stand-up comedians (even very popular ones like Jim Gaffigan live) and you were more hilarious than them. You really are amazing! Please tell me if I am ever able to see you live in Nashville again!
“As always, that was truly incredible. I hope we…have you back every year! Thank you for inspiring, motivating, and bringing laughter to my team and the amazing people we work with across the state. THANK YOU!”

Meg’s keynote was amazing – she should be a stand up comedienne – lucky for us she’s pivoted to delivering important messages with humour to the masses…I Laughed Out Loud literally so many times. Please tell Meg I really appreciated the shout outs, the tailored message, the references to our members’ challenges – she really understood our audience and made them feel it.
Also, the camera change angles & polling questions really added interest. Super animated, dynamic, hilarious & actionable content – the time just flew by. Meg was Fabulous! 5 stars.
What a night!…You were absolutely wonderful to work with and you shared such fun and helpful tips, some I have already started to put to use!

“Meg recently spoke to our university—remotely—on the topic of resilience and teamwork. Meg’s approach to this critical topic was knowledgeable, humorous, and sensible. Her presentation packed a lot of information in a short time. Meg made sure that the participants were fully engaged, despite the limitations presented by remote technology to a large group. We received a lot of positive feedback. One of Meg’s traits that impressed me the most was her preparation. She took the time before the presentation to understand the audience and to make sure that the technology worked flawlessly well in advance of the presentation. Meg, her approach, and her message are great!”
“Extreme thanks! This was fantastic and the energy we all needed right now! Here are a few quotes, some of them were sent to everyone at the end of the meeting, some came directly to me:
“Thank you!!! SOOOO needed this!!!”
“Really fun break in the stress.”
“Excellent choice of presenter, oh my god!”
“That was amazing, I feel seen!”
“OMG I LOVE HER!!!”
I feel as if the use of exclamation points say it all. One of my team and I were talking after the presentation and she said, “that’s because I’m a C Style.” The information is already being put to use! Thank you again!”
Alison Granata, Program Manager

“Meg recently spoke to our university—remotely—on the topic of resilience and teamwork. Meg’s approach to this critical topic was knowledgeable, humorous, and sensible. Her presentation packed a lot of information in a short time. Meg made sure that the participants were fully engaged, despite the limitations presented by remote technology to a large group. We received a lot of positive feedback. One of Meg’s traits that impressed me the most was her preparation. She took the time before the presentation to understand the audience and to make sure that the technology worked flawlessly well in advance of the presentation. Meg, her approach, and her message are great!”

“Thank you!!! SOOOO needed this!!!”
“Really fun break in the stress.”
“Excellent choice of presenter, oh my god!”

“Thank you Meg… you did a fantastic job. It was great having everyone participate. It is hard for some in the crowd to be social and you succeeded in getting the group involved. It was a great evening and I don’t know how we can top it for next year!”
“Meg was our keynote speaker at our E*Value Healthcare Education Conference. She entertained, inspired, made us think and certainly made us all laugh. She got people up out of their seats, engaging with peers and energized us all for the three day conference. Her perspectives and strategies are lifelong tools that can restructure the way we interact with each other. Meg did a great job of customizing her keynote to our audience. We wish we could bring her back year after year.”
“We LOVED Meg Soper! She was funny, inspirational and very in-tuned with the audience. She got the audience involved and was ‘right on’ with some of her comments. She gave the audience some things to think about, laugh about, and made them feel appreciated, which is so important in our line of work. She was such a success and helped finish off the conference on a light and positive note.”
“Meg was absolutely fabulous! She arrived the evening before, mingled with us, asking questions about our different work positions and then incorporated this into her presentation … it was fantastic. Most of the feedback forms rated her 10 out of 5 and the comments were all just great. Meg was an outstanding presenter!”
“The message that Meg brings to her audience is fantastic, but even more impressive is how she makes each presentation unique. I have yet to come across another speaker who puts in the thought, the effort and the integrity into getting to know her audience so that her work has more meaning. She is a remarkably funny speaker and does a phenomenal job of making her audience part of the message. Can’t wait to have her back at future events.”
Meg Soper has lit up the SSM OHS Conference stage twice, and if it were possible, I’d gladly have her return every year. She’s undoubtedly one of my personal favorites!
Meg’s professionalism shines through in her meticulous preparation, making collaboration with her a breeze. Her ability to engage and establish genuine connections with every member of the audience is truly remarkable.
With Meg, not only do we find ourselves thoroughly entertained, but we also leave the conference having gained valuable insights. She leaves us all laughing and learning!

After your presentation, I was mobbed by individuals wanting to share their thoughts about how much they enjoyed you. You ended our event on SUCH a positive and uplifting note.”
“Meg’s professionalism and dedication to making her presentation the best it could be was impressive.

Meg is a highly skilled speaker who uses humor to engage and teach participants. I would not hesitate to recommend Meg for your next event.”
Meg! I’ve heard such lovely feedback about your talk on Tuesday night. Everyone was so impressed that you were able to work so many people into the conversation after chatting people up during cocktail hour and dinner. Thank you so much, again, for being a delightful feature of our special evening!
I was at the TBA Women in Banking last week, and I wanted to connect with you to say Thank You! Your presentation was beyond hilarious. I laughed harder than I have in years. I was rolling and crying and even bawling at times. I told my husband and children all about you – for days I kept bringing you up. You were so amazing, so hilarious, so incredible. I have seen stand-up comedians (even very popular ones like Jim Gaffigan live) and you were more hilarious than them. You really are amazing! Please tell me if I am ever able to see you live in Nashville again!
What a night!…You were absolutely wonderful to work with and you shared such fun and helpful tips, some I have already started to put to use! I can’t tell you how many times I literally laughed out loud! I think there were even some tears. In the current times we’re in, laughter and joy like last night are much welcomed and needed!

I can’t say enough great things about her. Thanks for saving this for the end. There were no other speeches that topped this one!”
“Please bring this speaker back. What a great way to finish the week! My stomach hurts from laughing. I will definitely use the deep-breathing technique!”

“SGNA certainly saved THE BEST for last! Meg Soper was the most amazing and entertaining speaker ever! I didn’t want her presentation to end! I laughed so hard I cried! Yet, her information presented was so valuable in today’s working environment. I would so love for Meg to come and speak to our hospital’s personnel. The issues & characteristics she described are so true! Thank you so much for having this wonderful presenter at SGNA!”
“Well your ears must be buzzing as the saying goes, so many in our group have reached out to me saying “best seminar ever” and they all say how much they enjoyed your presentation.

That is unique to you, and so much appreciated.”
