Public Speaker, Angela Shelton

Hilarious Healing Through Storytelling

Angela Shelton brings unlikely crowds together and transforms audiences in ways you never expected. 

A multi-award winning filmmaker, speaker, and Emmy winning actress Angela Shelton's personal rewards are the lives she has touched and saved. 

After creating her documentary, Searching for Angela Shelton, and receiving countless messages and first-hand accounts from survivors not killing themselves because of her, she wrote her book Finding Angela Shelton about how making the film changed her life and stopped her own self-abuse and self-hatred. 

Keeping her promises to survivors while on the road for over a decade, she has remained funny in the face of all fear and created a kaleidoscope of content - for a reason! 

Here is one of her keynote speeches:
