Katelyn Duban Public Speaker Keynote speaker

ENGAGING, DYNAMIC, AND RELATABLE

Katelyn Duban has a passion for story. She started sharing her story in Agriculture back in 2017 and has had the privilege of telling the stories of others through her podcast, The Rural Woman Podcast, since 2019.

Katelyn offers a unique perspective on a variety of topics including Mental Health, Advocacy for Women in Agriculture, Cultivating Connection and is able to customize the perfect presentation to fit your audience.

Katelyn truly goes above and beyond to connect and engage with audiences through key note speeches, emceeing, panels, and is able to produce live podcast experiences.

I have been lucky enough to work with Katelyn on a couple of occasions as a speaker and host as well as social media events. Katelyn is engaging, dynamic and fully prepared. As a professional, she takes obvious pride in her work, does her research, makes it feel effortless and has fun. She is a wonderful partner and goes above and beyond to deliver a great experience. I would highly recommend Katelyn as a speaker, emcee or social media influencer – she is outstanding.

We recently invited Katelyn Duban of The Rural Woman Podcast to lead a Masterclass ( a live, interactive workshop) for our Trailblazher Collective Membership – an audience of enterprising, rural women looking to grow their rural businesses and communities. Katelyn was a huge hit as she shared her experience and wisdom on what to consider when starting a podcast. Her presentation was top notch with professional slides, relevant and timely examples and personal anecdotes. Katelyn has a wonderful way with words and an authentic way of connecting with her audience. The 60 minutes flew by! Our community loved her and wanted more! We would highly recommend Katelyn any day of the week – she is a qualified, professional entrepreneur with a wealth of knowledge to share!”

I love working with Katelyn, she is so warm and friendly! Katelyn puts so much thought and heart into her work and it definitely comes across in the quality of her presentations and speaking. She was professional, easy going, and kept the audience engaged with funny, relatable stories and nuanced content. As an event coordinator, it is a joy to work with someone who is both professional and prompt on the logistics side and a great speaker!

Katelyn spoke at the Organic Alberta conference in 2020 when I was the event coordinator. She came fully prepared with all the necessary equipment, which made it very easy for us to work with her. Even prior to the event, she was extremely professional and accommodated all of our speaking requests. She knew our audience base well but still asked us what we wanted out of the session. Immediately after the event, Katelyn provided a recording of her session for us to share with our members. Katelyn added a fun, open and contemporary perspective to our speaker lineup. I would not hesitate to work with Katelyn again!

Working with Katelyn on our 3rd annual Brighter Together Tour was an absolute pleasure. She was incredibly engaging, not only with her followers but also in creating a memorable experience for everyone on the tour. Her deep knowledge of agri-food truly shone through, and her quick turnaround time on the agreed-upon posts was outstanding. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Katelyn as we promote our local destination as an agrifood hub.
