Julie Burch

Julie Burch is not your average keynote speaker, and thank goodness for that!

With more than 28 years of experience, Julie delivers what she proudly calls “comedy meets content.” She brings real-world business smarts, practical solutions you can actually use, and wraps it all in relatable, down-home charm, with a whole lot of laughter. She’s funny on purpose, and it works. Because when people laugh, they listen… and when they listen, they learn.

Julie has taken the stage in all 50 states, three countries, and three U.S. territories (yes, she’s collecting frequent flyer miles and standing ovations). In 2017, she was inducted into the SHRM Speaker Hall of Fame, and she’s been a go-to favorite for conferences and organizations across the country ever since.

Her client list reads like a corporate power lineup, including Fidelity Investments, Kaiser Permanente, Texas Tech University, the Department of Defense, the IRS, the EEOC, the U.S. Army and Air Force, BP America, and many more. Translation? Julie speaks fluent business and fluent real life.

When she’s not rocking the stage, Julie has served on the National Board of Directors for the American Business Women’s Association and the Board of Directors for CYT – Christian Youth Theater of DFW. One of her favorite “pinch-me” moments? A guest appearance on Good Morning America—because clearly, the rest of the country needed a little Julie too.

Julie is also the co-author of three books, including two motivational favorites for women—The Princess Principle and Every Heart Has a Gift. As well as a business book, Success Simplified: Simple Solutions, Measurable Results. (See? Funny and smart.)

Known as “The Comedienne with Content,” Julie’s keynotes are fast-paced, high-energy, wildly interactive, and packed with real-world strategies audiences can use the minute they leave the room. Expect big laughs, real talk, and zero fluff. Her philosophy is simple: the more the audience laughs, the more they learn and the more they remember.

“Solid Business Strategies. Brilliant Comedic Humor.”It’s not just her tagline—it’s Julie’s promise, every single time.

Bonus round: Julie is also your SHRM insider. She’s spoken at the SHRM National Conference three years in a row, the National SHRM Talent Conference, multiple state conferences, and countless regional events—and she’s frequently tapped to emcee because she keeps things moving, meaningful, and fun.
