About Gabrielle

Gabrielle Steele is a TEDx Editor’s Pick and keynote speaker, storyteller, and humorist who spent 21 years in an apocalyptic doomsday cult.

She uses sharp humor, personal stories, and unexpected observations to explore why smart people believe weird things, why reasonable people make questionable decisions, and why being absolutely certain you’re right should probably make you a little nervous.

Drawing from an unconventional life and a career leading complex projects, Gabrielle talks about how we think, lead, connect, and occasionally get things spectacularly wrong.

Her goal is simple: make you laugh, make you think, and maybe make you question something you were pretty sure about five minutes ago.
