Sarah Jakes Roberts is the kind of voice other personal growth leaders pay attention to. Dubbed “remarkably inspiring” by Mel Robbins, Roberts is known for speaking clearly about growth and healing, including the quiet ways shame and self-judgment can keep people stuck.

A New York Times bestselling author, Founder of Woman Evolve, and TIME100 Next honoree, Sarah Jakes Roberts has become one of the most influential voices in personal growth today. Through her annual Woman Evolve Conference, she has gathered nearly 40,000 women, and her message continues to reach millions more through an expansive digital platform and global following. Wherever Roberts appears, audiences gather, drawn to conversations that move beyond motivation and into meaningful change.

As a speaker, Roberts explores what actually happens when people are ready to change but hesitate at the awkward, uncomfortable stretch of becoming someone new. She helps audiences move through that tension instead of avoiding it, tapping into the higher version of who they already sense they could be. Her language is both profound and practical, creating rooms where insight turns into movement and audiences leave clearer, more open, and prepared to act.
