Reinvention & Resiliency

During the launch of Little Passports, Amy Norman faced tremendous challenges all at once: at eight months pregnant and as a first-time founder, she was faced with the end of her marriage and the death of her father. When others told her it might be safer to abandon her dream during this turbulent time, Amy had to find the strength to cast their words aside, and stay true to her dream. By tapping into her own resiliency and staying connected to the bold vision she had for her business, Amy completely reinvented her life and work. Amy speaks about her personal evolution—and the success and connection she found on the other side of it.

Joyful Leadership

For Amy, joy is a serious pursuit in life and at work. To succeed as an entrepreneur, you don’t need to shut off your personality and make decisions that disregard whether your work will be meaningful to you. Taking seriously the desire to enjoy what you do and care for your people can be a game changer for leaders seeking to invigorate teams and help organizations thrive. As an experienced founder and CEO, Amy speaks about the need to create a more joyful and connected world of work.

Transformative Travel

Amy's work is informed by a deep commitment to cross-cultural understanding. Being a traveler, not a tourist, unlocks profound experiences that excite, educate, and change people. Drawing on her international upbringing, experience founding and leading Little Passports, and her transformative work at the helm of Nellie, Amy speaks on the need for authentic experiences and meaningful connections while traveling. She offers a framework for approaching travel, thinking about the life-changing opportunities and connections that can be found off the beaten path.

Unconventional Entrepreneurship

Many would-be entrepreneurs fear that the path they dream about is not viable for them, or that they need to stifle their visions to fit more recognizable professional molds. Amy’s work is proof that you don’t need to be a standard tech leader or traditional business owner to be successful—you need only stay true to your path and pursue what excites you. Sharing her unique journey building one-of-a-kind businesses, Amy encourages audiences to stay committed to their ideas and tap into the joy and tenacity needed to bring them to life.
