TEDx Sugarland: Three Steps to Medication Safety

Medications, often taken without much thought, pose significant risks despite their widespread use. This is why medication-related events rank as the fourth leading cause of death, surpassing diabetes, AIDS and even automobile accidents. What’s more tragic is that many of these incidents are entirely preventable. 

Empowering Women and Girls to Thrive Summit at the United Nations

Lidia Molinara was a featured keynote speaker at the Empowering Women and Girls to Thrive Summit at the United Nations. At this transcendental event, Lidia discussed women’s voices and how they shape optimal healthcare journeys through advocacy.

Dr. Lidia Molinara’s work has been featured on CNN, WSJ, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, The Huffington Post, NYC Journal, Thrive Global, CTV News, IMDb, The CW, Today in Parenting and Edify Magazine.

She has spoken at TEDx Sugarland, United Nations, NannyPooloza, National Federation of Families and more!

She’s passionate about using her voice to empower moms to advocate, communicate, and become educated so they can confidently navigate the chaotic healthcare system and protect against preventable harm for their children (loved ones).

Whether she’s speaking at a conference, convention, association meeting, university, church, nonprofit organization, or corporate event, Dr. Lidia Molinara brings the voice of a trusted mom and healthcare navigator who understands the real challenges families face.—the fear, confusion, and exhaustion that comes with trying to navigate healthcare for the people you love most. As a mom and trusted healthcare navigator, she transforms lived experience and stories into hope, clarity, and empowerment. Her goal is to remind audiences that they are not alone, that their voices matter, and that even in the most overwhelming moments, there is a path forward—one informed decision, one question, one brave step at a time.

She’s also committed to partnering with organizations that place family wellbeing and safety at the center of their mission—helping caregivers navigate overwhelming systems, reduce stress, and feel confident protecting the people who depend on them most. Through powerful storytelling and practical guidance, she delivers a message audiences deeply relate to and remember, making her an impactful choice for conferences seeking a speaker who truly moves people and leaves families safer, stronger, and supported not just in healthcare but also in everyday family life.

She often partners with brands and organizations that share her passion to encourage, empower, and equip moms with the tools, support, and information to create a safe, healthy and happy life.

Besides delivering an engaging and meaningful talk, I love being an active part of your event. I help extend its impact by sharing social media coverage before, during, and after the conference, and by staying for the full event to connect personally with attendees. I also create a custom page with slides, key takeaways, and helpful resources so participants can continue taking action long after the event ends. You can expect prompt communication to plan, create, and debrief the experience.

She can customize her presentation to meet your needs and can present in different formats, including keynote, panel discussion, half-day workshop, or full-day seminar.
