Allison Massari: Pharmaceutical Keynote Speaker

The Fire Within℠ — The Art of a Bold Self-Leadership

Keynote speaker, Allison Massari, knows that you have the power to transform lives.  

When Allison was 32, she survived a devastating car accident and sustained severe second and third degree burns on over 50% of her body. Her recovery and eventual healing was achieved through a combination of determination, hope, and courage, and involved years of pain medications, antibiotics, and other necessary medications to support her in building the triumphant life she lives today.

It is powerful for those working in the Pharmaceutical Industry to connect to the patient experience. Allison’s heroic story of overcoming extreme odds and finding remarkable success in her personal and professional life could not have happened without the help of the dedicated professionals in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. Whether it’s for your Pharmaceutical Sales Annual Conference, a Leadership Retreat, or an event tailored for your customers, Allison Massari brings her unique and relevant experience and insight and delivers a life-changing, genuinely encouraging and deeply moving keynote to professionals in the Pharmaceutical Industry.

Allison’s passion for healthcare and caring for people’s well-being has always been a major focus in her life. Growing up, she was immersed in the world of healthcare, with her father, an oncology surgeon, and her mother, a nurse. Allison was fascinated watching her father care for his patients, and began following him on rounds starting at age six. Inspired by his compassionate care, she later worked in medical offices, physical therapy centers and hospitals. Then, as a burn survivor and after sustaining a closed head brain injury just two years later, Allison suddenly saw what life was like on the other side of the stethoscope.

In her Pharmaceutical Keynote, Allison Massari shares her journey—from absolute loss, to forgiveness and understanding—and boosts resilience, vitality, and happiness in her audiences. Through the power of storytelling, she equips participants with tools to manage change and overcome adversity, to be motivated in tough times, to have more confidence when dealing with difficult people, and to view life from new coordinates of hope.

Praise for Allison Massari

“I watched as the entire room rose to their feet in a standing ovation. Her work is phenomenal, and life altering. I can’t tell you how many keynotes I have sat through with this company, and I have never seen the crowd so affected. As I looked around the room, the audience was overcome with emotion; riveted, gasping in response at times, welling up with tears at others. As Allison closed… the entire room rose to their feet in a standing ovation, another first for this group. Allison was able to show up with exactly the message we needed to hear. I watched afterwards as executives came up to her one by one sharing how they had been touched personally. I don’t believe there is a group who could sit before the pure magic Allison brings to a room and not be forever changed.”

“Allison’s message is one of hope, perspective, tenacity, resilience, heart, passion, dedication, compassion and love. I will never forget all that she shared, so selflessly, to help us all along in life and work!!”

“Allison’s message and story was life-changing to listen to. She gave us all an incredible gift that will not be forgotten, and will truly motivate us in all that we strive for in life. If only more people could be fortunate enough to hear her story! Her story touches ALL aspects of our daily life, not just our work, and inspires the audience to focus on being the best person possible, by following such simple and beautiful principles in life. In creating this type of “life focus” and inner happiness, you can impact every aspect of your daily life in a positive, productive, and truly rewarding way. This in turn, can transcend your passion and appreciation for your work in a much more profound way, and provide so much more focus and meaning in both your professional and personal life! After 25 years in the pharmaceutical/ biotech arena, I finally was blessed to hear a life changing, inspirational talk at a National Sales meeting that wasn’t solely about work or achieving business success! I feel so honored to have listened to Allison speak to our company about her life’s journey and the challenges that she has overcome, which have truly defined her character in the most impressive and extraordinary way. Allison’s message is one of hope, perspective, tenacity, resilience, heart, passion, dedication, compassion and love. I will never forget all that she shared, so selflessly, to help us all along in life and work!!”
