Speaking & Media
Gina Vild is a writer, speaker, and thought leader on happiness, resilience, grief, purpose, and living with greater meaning.
While continuing to give talks on happiness and living with purpose, the subject of her first book, Gina found new opportunities to connect with audiences during the COVID-19 lockdown. Groups that invited her to speak virtually began asking her to return to explore other topics. These invitations led her to develop a range of talks on resilience, which evolved alongside her writing of BUOYANT, each informing and enriching the other.
Since then, Gina has delivered talks and keynote addresses and participated in podcasts, media interviews, webinars, and livestreamed conversations. Her audiences have ranged from corporate teams and professional associations to literary events, libraries, wellness communities, and cancer organizations.
Today, many of Gina’s talks focus on resilience: how we build it, how we access it during times of loss or uncertainty, and how we can use life’s most difficult chapters as a path toward renewal, meaning, and purpose. She is also a sought-after speaker on happiness, showing how service, gratitude, and forgiveness can strengthen well-being, deepen purpose, and create a more fulfilling life.
Gina is available for keynote talks, podcast interviews, media interviews, webinars, literary events, corporate gatherings, annual meetings, retreats, and community conversations.
