Based in Toronto, Canada, Jessica Santonato is an inspirational speaker who shares the message of forgiveness and finding the gift in painful experiences.

In her latest memoir “Flip The Script”, she shares her journey of living a criminal lifestyle, assault, attempted suicide and domestic violence before the age of 30, to her rise in conscious leadership and humanitarian work by the age of 35.

Recognized for her leadership abilities, she was one of three people chosen by an American personal development company to help more than a thousand entrepreneurs from across all continents achieve success through the power of vivid story sharing and communication.

Flip The Script, an organization Jessica founded, is a raw and unfiltered story sharing community that gives men with criminal histories a platform to share their stories from a new perspective.

She has been featured in media such as CBC Radio, Cosmopolitan Magazine, Rogers TV, various podcasts, and has given talks at TEDx, Humber College, Mississauga City Hall, inner-city schools and at an event for international peace activist/conscious hip-hop artist, Emmanuel Jal.
