Tracy Maxwell Biography

Tracy Maxwell is an entrepreneur, river guide, speaker, retreat leader, author, blogger, traveler, and all-around adventurer. A journalist by education, she has spent most of her professional career in higher education, first as a traveling consultant for two different organizations, next on a college campus in Wisconsin, then on the staff of a national college speakers agency (ending her time there as CEO), and most recently as the founder and executive director of the nonprofit HazingPrevention.Org, dedicated to empowering people to prevent hazing.

Maxwell is also a survivor. Diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2006, she underwent surgery, chemo and other mainstream treatments and had a clean bill of health for 4 years before doctors discovered new masses. Through, now, four recurrences, she has turned to other ways to deal with cancer, including diet, emotional well-being, spiritual growth and alternative therapies.

Perhaps her greatest therapy during three bouts with the “C” word has been her writing. She started writing her blog, “A Single Cell,” to mark her one-year “cancerversary” (the anniversary of her diagnosis) and published a book based on her blog, Being Single, With Cancer: A Solo Survivor’s Guide to Life, Love, Health & Happiness.

Maxwell’s blog and book both focus on the unique challenges of facing cancer and surviving it without that special partner or a built-in support system. Her work now, whether talking about hazing with college students, leading trips and workshops for single people, or coaching those diagnosed with cancer, focuses on helping people heal on mental, emotional, physical and spiritual levels. Her events and coaching highlight the importance of connection, community and self-love.

Tracy Maxwell Speaking Topics

I May Have Cancer, but Cancer Doesn’t Have Me

As a four-time cancer survivor, Tracy has experienced the ups and downs of dealing with a serious illness, and surprising even to herself, she now sees cancer as an incredible blessing. She often tells people if she could go back in time and not experience cancer, she wouldn’t choose that. The reason why is the incredible transformational power of dealing with a serious health issue or other trauma in our lives. To be powerful in the face of the circumstances of our life is extraordinary. Each difficulty gives us an opportunity to heal something within that allows us to move to a new level of effectiveness and happiness.

#LML (Love My Life): How our view of the world changes EVERYTHING

Tracy believes how we view the world literally creates our experience in it. Our perception is the only thing that distinguishes our experience of life from that of everyone else, and it is completely unique to us. Even in the same place, at the same time, no two people experience life in the same way. The way you see your life and the world around you determines your happiness, peace of mind, success and the quality of your relationships. This program will help you learn to love your life more, experience less stress and overwhelm and open up to better relationships, more meaningful work and a profound sense of purpose.

A Conversation About Hazing

As the Founder of a hazing prevention non-profit, Tracy believed that with good information, students would make good decisions. We hear about hazing in the media usually when someone gets injured or killed, but what we rarely know is how many are psychologically damaged from their experience. The shame these victims feel often keeps them silent about their deep, and often lasting, wounds. Tracy shares their stories, and provides students with the tools to make a different choice, to affirm rather than humiliate the newest members of their organizations.
