About

It started
as a someday...

Long before the book and keynote, Bridget Hilton was a small town Michigan kid who dreamed of someday becoming a rockstar. At 14, she took every music-related job she could find, from selling band T-shirts out of vans to sweeping concert floors in Detroit. She eventually worked her way into the world’s largest record label, helping launch the careers of Taylor Swift, The Weeknd and Rihanna.

Then a video of a deaf woman hearing for the first time gave her a new someday: help one person experience the power of sound. She founded LSTN and built it into a global company that sold millions of headphones and speakers, partnered with Google, Delta Air Lines and Amazon, and helped more than 60,000 people hear in 40 countries and all 50 states.

Today, she helps others make their own somedays happen. Through her book Experiential Billionaire, her viral TEDx talk, research with more than 20,000 people, and her Make Someday Today keynote and workshops, Bridget helps people and organizations take action on what matters.

Bridget demonstrates that you can solve a problem and have a positive impact. An inspiring entrepreneur that shows business can really be an adventure.

Bridget Hilton delivering the Make Someday Today keynote
The signature keynote

Make Someday Today.

Closing the gap between dreaming and doing.

Your people have ideas they haven’t shared, goals they keep postponing, and things they’d try if they felt ready. What becomes possible when they finally begin?

In this entertaining, motivational keynote, Bridget Hilton helps audiences recognize the cost of waiting and discover how much can change with a small first step. Drawing on research with more than 20,000 people about goals and regrets, she explores why we put off what matters and how to move forward before confidence, clarity, or perfect timing arrive.

Bridget brings these ideas to life through her journey building LSTN, a global company that sold millions of products and helped more than 60,000 people hear. Her experience gives audiences a practical framework for pursuing ambitious goals, asking for help, and creating opportunities for others along the way.

For organizations, the connection is clear: people who share what they want to achieve give colleagues a chance to contribute. An introduction, a conversation, or an offer of support can move a goal forward and build a stronger relationship in the process. Audiences leave with a meaningful goal, a concrete first step, and a shared way to help each other follow through.

Bridget Hilton's TEDx talk
What an amazing day spent with you, our team is still buzzing. We had strings of conversations going across business units for the following few days, where we were asking people to be vulnerable and share something they did that they had been needing to get done for a while. The comments were electrifying! I can’t thank you enough for pushing us out of our comfort zone.
