Amelia Rose Earhart was given the name Amelia Earhart, which prompted her to learn to fly. As a professional speaker, pilot, author, and artist, she faced this question head-on and chose to fully commit, completing her private, instrument, and commercial flight training with the dream of flying around the world, much like the legendaryAmerican hero she was named after, Amelia Mary Earhart.
 

In 2014, she achieved her goal of circumnavigating the globe along a 28,000 nautical mile route in a single-engine aircraft. Amelia believes the most important lesson from her journey is that true success and personal growth require embracing life's turbulence by staying agile amidst the storms that inevitably arise on our paths.

Amelia has fifteen years of experience as a helicopter and breaking news reporter in Denver and
Los Angeles. She has sent numerous teenage girls to flight school during her ten-year tenure as
president of the Fly With Amelia Foundation, hosts a tech podcast focused on the future of AI in
business, and is currently transforming her aerial photos into original paintings. She has been
invited by companies like Apple Computers, Boeing, American Express, Berkshire Hathaway, United Healthcare, and many other industry leaders to share her story.
 

In her recently published book, "Learn to Love the Turbulence: ‘Flight Lessons’ on becoming the
pilot in command of your own journey," Amelia shares insights on how to think like a pilot, moving

through life with agility and confidence.
