“Lauren's presentation was a smashing success with our audience. She is a gifted presenter and had our room captivated for nearly an hour. While the story is unbelievably heart-warming and inspiring, the things we liked the most are the leadership and personal growth themes that she weaves throughout the presentation. When Lauren was finished, the audience gave her a standing ovation and there was not a single person in the room who was not touched or empowered by her story.”

Lauren founded Ride My Road with a plan to heal her broken heart through helping others. After leaving an emotionally abusive relationship in 2015, Lauren took to the road, riding nearly 10,000 miles on her motorcycle across the United States, photographing survivors of human trafficking.
Since then Ride My Road has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for survivor restoration programs with Lauren as the Executive Director.
Lauren has photographed nearly 100 survivors and hosted dozens of events across the US. She has been featured on CNN, and her writing has been published in magazines and books.
Was she able to heal her broken heart through helping others? Well, for that answer you will have to attend one of her presentations!

Keynote # 1
Overcome challenges to make an impact
You have heard the expression, “You can’t help others until you help yourself?” Well, that is what this Keynote is all about. Many of us want to change the world and make a difference but where do we begin? How do we get out of our own way? How do we decide where we can help?
The first step is to confront our own challenges and Lauren Trantham knows how to do this better than anyone. She has started a non-profit organization raising hundreds of thousands of dollars to support survivors of human trafficking. In addition, she has ridden her motorcycles nearly 20,000 miles across America photographing nearly 100 survivors, and it hasn’t been without its challenges.
This keynote will help audiences identify their top challenges and learn how to overcome them through a process Lauren has developed with lessons from the road.
