BOOK TERI
For your conference, community, event or retreat
From intimate living room conversations, to conference halls filled with hundreds of creatives, all the way to online audiences spanning the world, Teri has been on a mission to share her passion for helping folks shift their focus from changing their bodies, to changing the world.
If you are looking for a speaker and educator who’s passion comes through in the form of humour and emotional storytelling, then Teri Hofford is the perfect person for your event. Teri took the feedback she received in grade 6, being told she “talked too much” in class and channeled it into story telling, teaching, and inspiring audiences around the globe.

“Make ‘em laugh. Make ‘em cry.”
This is the criteria that I use to create and develop my talks for my clients - understanding that the path to true change happens when the audience connects emotionally to the content. I’m a speaker who’s all about helping people show up as their most authentic selves, by sparking big shifts in mindset and leaving audiences feeling empowered to take real, meaningful action in their lives.
Using my ACE method (Awareness, Curiosity, and Empowered Action), I guide people to challenge the limiting stories they tell about themselves—whether it’s about how they look, what they’re capable of, or how they show up in the world. I share practical tools, personal stories, and fresh insights that help audiences see themselves and their potential in a whole new light.
I bring a conversational style that feels approachable but is backed by years of experience as a coach, artist, and creative entrepreneur. If your conference is looking for a speaker who’s passionate, relatable, and ready to inspire your audience to think (and take action!) differently, let’s connect.
WHY TERI?
After a decade of revolutionizing the photography industry to diversify the bodies we see, Teri is now taking her message to stages and platforms everywhere because the skills, tools, and experience she used to educate thousands of photographers and clients can be used to help individuals from all backgrounds shift their thoughts from shame & judgment to curiosity & compassion.
