previous presentations
“Obstacles do not block
success; they define, motivate, and compel it.”
An animated and skilled presenter, Meaghan uses her experiences, sensitivity, humor and knowledge to appeal
to audiences of all ages.
Recent
engagements include speaking with students grades 3-12, several
international conferences, and presenting with former US Vice- President Al Gore.
In 2006, concerned by the growing prevalence of disordered
eating behaviors in schools, Meaghan started ActiveVOICES. Aimed at
helping students develop and maintain positive body image and self-esteem, the
program is now fully curricula-based with age-appropriate content for grades 3-12.
Coupling athletic background with personal experience, Meaghan inspires youth to
embrace healthy lifestyle choices and physical activity while staying true to
themselves. Fluently bilingual, she has
presented at several national and international conferences and in schools
throughout Canada. In 2007, she was selected and biographied in Scholastic
Canada’s The Ten Most Inspiring Canadians. |
