Meet Kory

 

Kory M. Shrum is a keynote speaker, podcaster, and USA TODAY bestselling author of more than thirty books. She is known for transforming hard-earned life lessons into practical frameworks that help people and organizations reduce burnout, reclaim energy, and build resilience.

After surviving a childhood of trauma and the tragic loss of her mother, Kory chose a different path. While her mother remained trapped in a generational cycle of abuse and substance use disorder, Kory transformed herself from a suicidal, self-destructive teen into a thriving leader, educator, and author. Her journey taught her not just how to survive, but how to create a life rooted in joy, creativity, and sustainable self-care.

​

Today, she shares her revolutionary approach to well-being and self-care with audiences across many industries, including healthcare, education, and business.
