How a Simple Shift in Perspective Can Spark Passion, Purpose, & Growth

Companies with engaged employees report 2.5x higher revenues. Alternatively, disengaged employees are 87% more likely to leave a job… We have “hustled our way” into a workforce that feels burnt out, disengaged, and no longer connected to gratitude.

“Gratitudeology” is a unique framework that applies research-backed techniques that change the game, delivering an energetic mindset shift that compels peak performance, increases engagement, and deepens the “purpose matrix” from the inside out.

Oftentimes there is a disconnect between the GenZ / Millennials and GenX / Boomer generations – a divided belief on which is more important: “Hustle,” meaning striding ahead, no matter what; or “Heal,” meaning setting healthy boundaries and prioritizing self-care.

  • ASK yourself: what am I grateful for TODAY?
  • BECOME someone who leans into challenges.
  • CONNECT with those around you; Gratitude is a prosocial exercise. 

Insider Tips from a Former PR Pro to Uncover Your Own 

Personal “Star Power” 

Jamie Hess is known as the “Brand Ninja” for her prowess at identifying the exact alchemy needed to create affinity. During her 17-year career as a senior-level PR executive, she helped brands like McDonald’s, W Hotels Worldwide, Barry’s Bootcamp, and LinkedIn become white hot on the cultural landscape.

What she did for each of these iconic brands was to help them uncover their authentic personality – the most luminescent parts of their core DNA – and then help them show up in alignment with that… every day, and in every way.

When a brand shows up as the truest version of themselves, people trust them.

The same goes for people.

In today’s workplace, cultivating your own personal brand is imperative to walking through your career with confidence. Whether you are actualizing your potential as a part of the team, or in a senior leadership role, the same is true: once you uncover your own hidden “star power,” you become a magnet for success. 

This talk gives audiences the “magic bullet” to rebrand themselves from the inside out, giving them the ability to attract rather than chase successful outcomes.

Jamie Hess brings a fresh, engaging perspective to keynote speaking, combining her background as a top PR pro with her dynamic personal storytelling. Known for her gratitude framework, Gratitudeology™, Jamie empowers audiences to shift mindsets, boost performance, and deepen their sense of purpose.

She also dives into branding with her talk The Magnetic Rebrand, helping individuals and companies uncover their unique “star power” to thrive in their careers and attract new customers. Whether she’s sparking gratitude or transforming how people see themselves, Jamie delivers actionable insights with energy and authenticity that leave a lasting impression.

Prior to becoming a highly sought after content creator, Jamie spent 17 years as a senior level PR & marketing expert on brands like McDonald’s, General Motors, LinkedIn, Barry’s Bootcamp, and W Hotels Worldwide. Today she integrates her expertise to teach people how to expertly leverage their own social media presence to secure high paying ambassador deals through her course, Brand Ninja.

She is the face of numerous products on QVC, and contributes healthy living advice to hundreds of shows including TODAY, Good Morning America, The View, and beyond. She is also a TEDx and keynote speaker helping individuals and organizations focus on wellness, positive mindset shifts, and the future of work.

Jamie Hess is more than a keynote speaker—she is a catalyst for transformation. Through her Gratitudeology™ framework, she empowers audiences to harness the power of gratitude as a tool for success, resilience, and fulfillment. Her background in high-level PR, combined with her natural charisma and storytelling prowess, makes her a standout choice for any event. Organizations seeking a speaker who can inspire real change will find Jamie to be an engaging, knowledgeable, and unforgettable presence on stage.
