  • “Dana’s keynote address was not only inspiring, but highly entertaining. Dana is an absolute light, whose humility and vulnerability denotes her courage and her true dynamism. She has woven her story and her Olympic feats into an impactful narrative of authentic leadership, the power of vulnerability, and of the courage it takes to truly look at oneself in the mirror and see the real superwoman behind the mask.”

    Executive Director, WIN Summit
  • "Dana was the keynote speaker to close our 2021 virtual wellness event. She is as professional in the business world as she was during her elite swimmer career. Dana connected to the virtual audience with her warmth and authenticity. She shared moments of vulnerability along her sweet journey of self-discovery. She inspired us to become better through a new approach to self-development that empowers personal growth and long-lasting success. Her story was incredible. More people should get to hear her inspirational message. I'm glad we did. "

  • “Dana was fantastic. Her message of overcoming her fears and using what many view as a weakness as her guiding strength for her own success not only resonated with the adults in the room, but also the girls.”

  • “Dana's authenticity and thoughtfulness in our conversation was refreshing. She wasn't afraid to dive into some challenging topics, such as losing a sense of trust in herself as a star young athlete, navigating motherhood, and making the decision to retire from competitive swimming. She has an awesome ability to connect the lessons learned from a life in swimming to life out of the pool, which is exactly what I was looking for in bringing her on my show. Our audience gained some invaluable insight in hearing her story.”

  • “Few successful people have a straight line to the top. I remember seeing Dana on TV winning medals in the Olympics, but I never knew that her journey to the podium required incredible resilience, self-awareness and determination. As the first swimmer to win a gold medal after having a baby, she’s an example and inspiration to all of us about finding the inner strength to be better and better. I’m so glad we could hear Dana’s story!”

  • “Dana Vollmer is one of the most celebrated olympic athletes in the world. She is also an immensely talented speaker. Yet, there is something so much more that exudes from her when she speaks. There is an invisible, yet palpable, presence of something powerful, inspirational, and wholly influential in who she is.”

Dana’s Bio

My Olympic career began when I competed at the 2000 Olympic Trials at just 12 years old.

Four years later I had won a gold medal and helped break a 17-year-old world record. My career as an elite swimmer lasted 19 years, during which I competed in 3 Olympics, won 32 international medals, and broke 6 world records. In that time I learned what it takes to succeed in the water—both physically and mentally. I love the opportunity to share my knowledge and strategies with the next generation of swimmers.
