    Talent Short Bio

    Abby Johnson is an inspirational speaker and former clinic director for Planned Parenthood whose life changed dramatically after witnessing an ultrasound-guided abortion procedure. After eight years within the organization, including leadership at the clinic level, Johnson made the decision to leave and became a prominent advocate for the pro-life movement.

    Her story is rooted in firsthand experience, offering rare insight into the internal operations of one of the nation’s most recognized reproductive healthcare providers. Johnson’s turning point came in 2009, when witnessing a 13-week abortion procedure reshaped her understanding of the work she had been part of, leading to a complete personal and professional transformation.

    Today, Johnson speaks to audiences worldwide, sharing her journey with honesty and emotional depth. Her presentations address complex ethical questions surrounding abortion, while also focusing on compassion, healing, and support for women facing difficult decisions. She is known for engaging diverse audiences through authentic storytelling and thoughtful dialogue.

    Abby Johnson has always been fiercely determined to help women in need. This drive led her to a career with Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider. However, Abby’s journey took a dramatic turn when she witnessed the reality of abortion during an ultrasound-guided procedure, prompting her to flee the organization and become a vocal advocate for the pro-life movement.

    During her eight years with Planned Parenthood, Abby ascended to the position of clinic director. Despite her growing discomfort with the organization’s practices, she remained dedicated to serving women in crisis. However, everything changed on September 26, 2009, when Abby was asked to assist with an abortion procedure. Witnessing the termination of a 13-week-old fetus firsthand shattered her perception of abortion as a mere medical procedure. This pivotal moment marked a profound transformation in Abby’s life, compelling her to leave Planned Parenthood and commit herself to advocating for the sanctity of life.

    Abby Johnson’s background and expertise stem from her unique experiences within the realm of reproductive healthcare. With eight years of service at Planned Parenthood, including her tenure as a clinic director, Abby possesses unparalleled insight into the inner workings of the abortion industry. Her firsthand observations have equipped her with a comprehensive understanding of the ethical, moral, and societal implications surrounding abortion.

    Beyond her personal experiences, Abby is a compelling speaker who engages audiences with her authentic storytelling and unwavering commitment to her cause. Her journey from a dedicated Planned Parenthood employee to a passionate pro-life advocate resonates with audiences across diverse backgrounds. Abby’s ability to articulate complex issues surrounding abortion with clarity and empathy makes her a sought-after voice in the realm of reproductive rights and healthcare ethics.

    Talent FAQ's

    Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

    Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

    The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

    Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

    Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

    • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
    • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
    • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
    • When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
    • Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
    • Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
    • Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
