Robin Meade

As one of America's most popular and versatile broadcast journalists, Robin Meade has given a memorable voice to recent history's pivotal events and pop culture's most spectacular moments. The host of HLN's Morning Express with Robin Meade, she has anchored coverage on everything from the War on Terror to President Obama's inauguration to Michael Jackson's memorial; she has even skydived with George H.W. Bush.

Morning Express, and Meade's work as co-host with Dr. Sanjay Gupta on Turner Private Network's AccentHealth, is the culmination of a decorated and diverse career in broadcasting. During her tenure with NBC Chicago affiliate WMAQ-TV, prior to joining CNN, she covered the 1996 Olympics including special reporting on the Centennial Olympic Park bombing. Her career has been highlighted by a local Emmy Award and election to the Ohio Broadcasters Hall of Fame.

However, Meade's phenomenal success was not achieved easily. Throughout her career, she dealt with deep anxiety attacks that often caused dizziness and jagged breathing. Successfully conquering her issues with anxiety, she now shares her personal story and coping strategies in her bestseller, Morning Sunshine! How to Radiate Confidence and Feel it Too.

Drawing on her own experiences and those of women who have achieved breakthrough success, Meade educates audiences on improving self-esteem and navigating the stresses of careers and relationships. She remains a graceful guiding force for 21st century women.
