Heidi Alldredge

Heidi Alldredge is a certified happiness trainer, motivational speaker, and TEDx speaker who focuses on helping individuals discover and elevate the joy within themselves. A former radio talk show host turned podcaster, Alldredge serves as a university adjunct instructor of "Happiness 101" and is recognized as a KSL Studio 5 TV happiness expert.

Alldredge's expertise in happiness and mental health is informed by personal experience. As a teenager, just two days after Thanksgiving, police informed her family that her father had taken his own life—a pivotal moment that led her to choose between despair and hope. Prior to this, Alldredge had struggled with her own suicidal thoughts, but with the support of friends, family, and therapy, she emerged with the message that life is what one makes of it. Her journey from working as a house cleaner, private investigator, and realtor underscores her commitment to perseverance and hope.

Alldredge hosted a radio talk show focused on transforming adversity into positive change, interviewing individuals who had overcome challenges and contributed to their communities. These radio shows were later adapted into the podcast "Heidi's LemonAid Stand," where she has interviewed more than 300 individuals about resilience, gratitude, and personal growth. She incorporates these real-life experiences and stories into her keynote presentations, offering practical insights on happiness, stress management, and mindfulness.

Alldredge delivered a TEDx talk sharing her method for stopping negative thoughts, which involves questioning their validity, identifying opposite thoughts to shift mindset, and rewiring the brain for positivity. As an adjunct instructor teaching "Habits of Happiness," she guides individuals in cultivating gratitude, peace, forgiveness, love, and authentic joy. She also teaches "GIFTS of Happiness" at organizations, businesses, and community education centers, focusing on habits such as forgiveness, gratitude, and finding value in all situations.

Alldredge is experienced in presenting to audiences in boardrooms, classrooms, ballrooms, churches, and on large stages. Her speaking topics include business, happiness, health, inspiration, mental health, mindfulness, motivation, stress management, and women's issues, making her a versatile resource for organizations seeking to promote well-being and positive workplace culture.
