Mary Robinson Reynolds is an author, professional speaker, trainer, personal coach and corporate consultant.

Mary's energy is engaging and totally irresistible! She holds an audience mesmerized for hours... never knowing where the time went!

This charismatic Redhead has a gift for grace-filled, tell-it-like-it-is talk. Her dynamic presentation range covers the spectrum from subtle, spiritual and endearing to outrageously, side-splittingly funny, to hammer-the-point intensity. She is also a wise and somewhat bawdy soul, eager to help others trust that what they desire is valid. She opens your 'soul' with gentle, probing questions like, "So how do you want it to be?" and "Why do you think you can't have it?"
Mary is known for her ability to "zero-in" on significant issues with sensitivity, integrity and tenacity. Her professionalism, imagination, loyalty, sense of humor and play bring liveliness to her presentations and solutions for her audiences and clients.

Mary uses her personal tragedies and triumphs as instructional tools in understanding how the soul remains ever so gentle and persistent with us about this business of pursuing it's dream for us: fulfilling our purpose. Mary's story of the past thirteen years is a powerful illustration about how to use MasterMinding in the face of life as you have known it crumbling away. Mary basically lost everything within the period of a decade, all after having done her life the "right" way. Because of the fact that she found her way back through spiritual and scientific study, focused desire and soul-searching MasterMinding, and because she has presented these concepts to hundreds of live audiences, she is outstanding at taking abstract concepts and bringing them down into concrete terms and accessible language.
Mary founded Heart Publishing, an Oregon registered sole proprietorship, in 1990 to build on her success as a teacher, counselor, consultant, trainer, motivational speaker and author. Heart Publishing creates and markets products which meet the needs of all people wanting to heal their lives in areas of: money, time, relationships and health.

In her compelling and innovative first book, You Are A Success! -61 Proven Strategies For Developing Success (1991,) Mary's strategies stimulate people to think at higher, more innovative levels. Mary had learned these strategies as she recovered from a devastating series of trials and tragedies. She had lost her first child at birth, survived a difficult second pregnancy, divorced her husband, moved to a new State, and lived on pennies.
In 1996, Mary was accepted onto the training staff for National Seminars Group (
NSG) of Kansas City, KS. She made herself find the energy to get out and make a living within the industry she believed was her purpose. She did one city a day, five days a week. Her days began at 6:00 a.m. and ended at 10:00 p.m. Between these week-long trips on the road, she was methodically building her marketing materials.
In a two year period, Mary spoke to over 20,000 participants and consistently received the highest scores in her participant evaluations.
NSG required their speakers to author their own material to fit the seminar outline and workbook, so Mary used her original material throughout NSG's seminars. Some examples are: Image and Communication Skills for Women, a variety of Leadership and Management conference topics, and Women's Leadership conference topics.

Mary's parting recommendation from NSG:
It has been our pleasure at National Seminars Group to contract with Mary Robinson Reynolds. She has a unique ability to connect with the audience while delivering high quality training with ease, grace and impact.
To be successful in our business, our contract speakers must hold the audience's attention for 6 hours. They must travel to a different city each night and do this for 5 consecutive days. They must appear as fresh on Friday as they did on Monday. They must deliver training with as much enthusiasm and impact on Friday as they did on Monday. As you can see, this contract requires high levels of commitment and stamina.
Mary always achieved to a high level of expectation.

A Division of Rockhurst College Continuing Education Center, Inc.

Before resigning from NSG in 1998, Mary MasterMinded every step of the way in designing her marketing plan. She also determined, with her MasterMind partner, that she would soon have six months worth of independent contracts on the calendar. As soon as the sixth month had a booking, she resigned from s, and began MasterMinding for a six-figure income.
