" The moment I met Alexis Jones I knew that she is unlike any other person I have ever known. I also quickly realized that she is very likely going to take over the world. Alexis is a wonderfully genuine and strong crusader for women and girls. She is uniquely able to talk about women's issues in a way that feels motivating, inclusive and articulate. She represents the women's movement in a way that makes me incredibly proud - she has big ideas, a big heart and an incredible work ethic. I am positive that she is going to create real change in her lifetime."

We invited Alexis Jones to present as the keynote speaker at our major broadcast event to 70,000. Society members around the world. The reaction was tremendous – our audience LOVED IT! Alexis is one of the most engaging story tellers I have ever heard – she moved our audience to the edge of their seats, hanging on her every word and soaking up the life lessons shared. In addition to a warm, friendly and very “real” style that audiences relate to, she offers key takeaways to better the lives of those listening. I’m not surprised that weeks after the event, we continue to get positive feedback from our students as to how Alexis positively impacted their futures. You can rest assured that by hiring Alexis, you’re assuring a grand slam event your participants will be talking about for months.
-Gary Tuerack
(President The National Society of Leadership and Success)
"At a moment of profound reckoning in our national – and global – destiny, when so many concerned observers across the ideological spectrum wring their hands in the face of big problems, not least of which is what they perceive to be a trend of inexorable moral decline in the lives of today’s youth, it is reassuring to know that young leaders like Alexis who embody a genuine belief in our capacity to build a brighter future are out there and putting their shoulder to the commonweal. Alexis is tough, she’s smart, she’s charismatic, and she’s unfailingly generous with her incredible gifts. She’s a winner who will give any organization, company or brand within which she’s involved a decisive edge over the competition. And she’s also a woman of deep and abiding curiosity and compassion who will uplift the lives of all those with whom she shares a meaningful encounter. I enthusiastically endorse Alexis Jones to all interested parties without reservation.”

Alexis's passion is inexhaustible and absolutely infectious. Whether she's talking to a Hollywood star, Fortune 500 CEO, high school teenager or impoverished child, each receive the same amount of her attention, curiosity and compassion.
What is truly unique about Alexis is that she meets every new person with genuine interest--as if each possessed a secret they'll eventually reveal to her with the right amount of comfort, coaxing and conversation. And it's usually true! She is instantly disarming and engaging.
Alexis is simply not afraid--of new people and experiences, of testing her own boundaries, and most importantly of being herself.

The first time Alexis Jones spoke to our students she closed to cheers and a standing ovation. The next morning I was greeted at school by a mass of students who had to have her address in order to write to her. They were convinced that only she could understand them! Last year Alexis Jones provided an inspirational presentation that was mesmerizing to our all-girl student body. Her message, be true to yourself, each of us is beautiful, and its hard work that brings us true success, touched our girls in a way that left them feeling inspired and empowered. When Alexis returned this year for a second visit, our girls were excited to greet home one of their "sisters." Never imagining she could top her first presentation, we were once again blown away. This year's message, never sell out your values, captivated our girls and left them aspiring to model after her.
Her style and her real personal experiences make her a motivational presenter who is welcome back on our campus as frequently as she can make possible. She makes an immediate connection with her audience leaving them ready to make her message a part of themselves. That message has warmed the souls of our young girls!

I worked with Alexis last summer at a youth camp (WADI) in Cairo, Egypt. I watched her all through the 9 days we were there and have seen the wonders that she does with girls. She engaged the group of girls right from the start, opened up on aspects of her personal development, and encouraged the girls to share their own stories and experiences. I was amazed and very touched at the way she communicated. Alexis didn't need a stage to get the girls' attention, her charisma and passion made the girls curious to find out what was different about her. Alexis has not just been inspiring to the girls but also to me.

Alexis is not only pretty and famous, but she even waited after she spoke to our school and talked to me about all the things I want to do in my life. She is everything I could ever hope to be and it's crazy, but she makes me feel like there is no dream too big and anything is possible. I wish she were my sister so I could go in her room and talk to her any time I wanted.

I met Alexis originally when she joined a friend and client of mine for private yoga instruction. We became very close friends finding a mutual passion for betterment of the world at large. As the originator of a training business for mental, spiritual, and physical fitness, and the designer of original acting methodology for artists, I've learned what kind of determination and fortitude it takes to move projects and business forward. Alexis has demonstrated a stark talent not only for implementing business strategy, but more importantly for impacting woman on a core level, amassing change from the inside out.
During the time I've known Alexis Jones, I've discovered she has an arresting ability to connect with virtually anyone, which has taken her across the globe advocating awareness and leading by example. When I see her speak to audiences about what is possible for women as well as men, I am moved by her Spirit, and by the vision she maintains to heal women from archaic and unquestioned ideas of self worth and women's roles in the world. Her message is simple and profound; true beauty lies in a woman's character and her contribution, as well as her potent body.
Alexis Jones is an example of woman's innate fluxing vibrancy, and is a rare and great voice for Generation Y. She reveals the source of women's true power, and inspires women to break free from the shackles of ancient, false, manipulative patriarchy. As a man, I am proud and honored to know her and to support her cause.

Her energy is infectious, and within ten minutes of spending time with her I feel smarter, more loved, and energized to take on the world. It is no surprise that incredible women are drawn to her. We look to Alexis as a leader for our generation and as an ultimate connector for everything good that surrounds us."

I'm honored to call her a colleague and friend. Anything she touches is graced with her deep beauty, charm and commitment to making the world a better place."

Her passion towards other people, her incredible charisma and power and her commitment to make a difference in this world are unparalleled. She is one of the most powerful voices in recent urban transformation, standing for and dedicating her life to the new phase of women empowerment. There is nothing that stands in her way, and she moves everything and everyone with fun, elegance, grace and ease. Alexis Jones is a true leader and a natural born superstar."

-Lauren Bush
(Founder FEED)
"Alexis is without a doubt one of the most passionate, driven, caring and incredibly gifted women I have ever met. She is not only a visionary for women today, but she couples this foresight with the extraordinarily ability to first empathize with women from all around the world and then inspire them to see and believe in themselves and the possibilities that lay before them. Alexis will single-handedly redefine how a woman views herself and how she is viewed by the society around her!"
-Ruth Riley
(MVP of the WNBA)
"I would say that Ms. Alexis Jones is the future voice of women in the world, but she is our voice NOW. It is not often you come across a person who can transcend boundaries of celebrity, substance, business and doing good. Ms. Jones’ sharp wit and deep commitment are a combination that directs results based movements. It has been awesome to watch her accomplish everything she puts her mind to and I can’t wait to see what is next!"
Elizabeth Gore

My connection to Alexis Jones is more personal than professional, though I feel a little qualified to comment on both. I am the CEO of a national marketing company and I employ a lot of young professionals, so I am around a of people Alexis' age. If our first meeting had been an interview rather than a cross-country flight, she would definitely have been hired!
I met Alexis when we were seated next to each other on an LA-NYC flight.. By the time we landed at JFK, I had made a new friend and an incredible almost re-connection to what young, female power and leadership really looks like. I was blown away not only by Lex's incredible drive and passion for helping under-served girls but also by her unique self-possession. She had a confidence that belied her young years, yet she was not arrogant or over-reaching in any way. In fact, she had something I see less and less in people her age, interest and curiosity in others. And it was genuine. She is a student of the world and her environment because she feels a calling to take back what she knows and what she learns to these girls she mentors and motivates.
Every parent should want their girls to meet Alexis Jones.. She is honest, open, genuine, enthusiastic, optimistic and eager to help others connect to those same things in themselves. She is THAT girl!

It is with great pleasure I recommend Alexis Jones as a speaker. Alexis is personally motivated to make the world a better place for girls and women, and inspires others to do the same. As the founder and director of I Am That Girl, Alexis has created an online community that empowers girls and women to dream big!
Girlstart empowers girls in math, science and technology, and I've seen firsthand how increased confidence can empower a girl to try new things and believe in herself. Alexis embraces that concept completely! She is a great example of someone who is positive, takes risks, and embraces challenges/obstacles. Last year Alexis was the keynote for our Expanding Your Horizons Conference, which had nearly 400 middle school girls in attendance. Alexis knocked it out of the ballpark! She managed to inspire girls to look past the outside and dig deep inside to find their true self worth. One parent commented that "listening to the speaker [Alexis] was very inspirational for [her daughter]".
Alexis has a rare gift! She is able to inspire her audience, and entertain them, which is critical for today's audiences. She is a great role model for girls and women everywhere.

The one lecture Alexis gave during my grad school class at USC was worth my entire USC tuition. I swear, a light just went off while she was talking and it has profoundly changed the entire direction of my life and my future. She spoke with wisdom, eloquence and inspiration that was truly electrifying.

"Who Is This Girl"? Alexis Jones humbled our small city of Thunder Bay, Ontario with her radiant and inspirational appearance at the annual Royal LePage Lannon Realty Women's Run. She performed two motivational speeches for our company and inspired the women of Thunder Bay and employees of Royal LePage to strive for greater accomplishments and to dream BIG. She reminded us that even though we are moving along...it is never too late to set and achieve even bigger dreams - to just go for it, without looking back. On a personal level, I was graced with the opportunity to spend time with her. I was instantly moved by her beautiful and sincere presence. She literally brings love and joy to all those she touches. She is a precious gift and a true gem. Alexis re-ignited the once dim fire within my soul and channeled my energies, which are like a blazing forest fire, toward greater aspirations. I recently enrolled again as a student at Lakehead University to obtain my Masters in Social Work in order to gain the credentials to help those struggling with addictions and the hardships. I sincerely credit Alexis for the positive injection that I needed at this very moment in my life to take the reigns and push forward to accomplish my goals. I am sure that her humility won't allow her to even see how her very short visit to Thunder Bay, Ontario has touched the lives of so many and that her legacy will continue to live on in our hearts.
