Shereen Thor: How Pain, Joy, & Laughter Birthed a "Revolutionary Woman"

Shereen - who has shared the stage with greats like Serena Williams, Prince Harry, Pau Gasol, and Les Brown - is never at a loss for words.

“My mother was a badass bitch who left my physically abusive father, so I love to empower women all day, every day,” Shereen offers, summing up the inspiration for her book, her mission, and the roots of her obsession with human behavior. Loss, rebellion, and the hunt for acceptance proved painful, but useful, as Shereen turned to standup comedy, drawing on a combination of sensibilities, chief among them was self-awareness and an ability to turn tough truths into punchlines while driving home a salient point. Comedy also allowed Shereen to polish her oratory skills.

Maturing into an entrepreneur and having found her soul mate and future husband Kenny, Shereen authored her first book - The Coolest Quote Book Eva - to honor the woman in love AND the rebel within. She is also the bestselling author of "Revolutionary Woman."

She has been featured in Forbes, TEDx, The Wall Street Journal, Insider, Medium, Spike TV, 97.1 AMP Radio, and more. She has worked with clients from all walks of life from entry-level to C-level executives. She has also worked with organizations of all types and sizes like Google, Facebook, Salesforce, Chevron, SHRM, Capital One, Yale, USF, LAUSD, and The Social Justice Learning Institute.
