INVITE MELODY TO SPEAK

Melody gives keynotes and lectures, and she leads workshops and seminars. These are always tailored to the needs of your organization or audience, and they address a wide array of topics, including mental health, Islam, Iran, inclusion, writing, activism, and more. As a mental health advocate and suicide survivor, she speaks about struggling and thriving with mental illness. As an activist, she speaks out against Islamophobia, sexism, racism, homophobia, ableism, sanism, and other forms of discrimination. As an award-winning author, she teaches writing workshops; gives lectures, readings, and interviews; and appears at book signings. As an attorney, she writes and speaks about improving mental health for lawyers and defeating stigma and discrimination within the legal profession (for law firms and CLE programs).
