💬 We are excited to highlight Megan Frank as the moderator for Storytelling That Sticks!

Megan Frank is an Emmy-winning storyteller, media educator, and Philadelphia native with 18 years of experience crafting powerful multimedia narratives for outlets like Business Insider and PBS, ABC, and NBC affiliates. Growing up in a family of community advocates, her Saturday mornings were spent helping neighbors, painting over graffiti and picking up trash - an upbringing that instilled a deep drive to serve others. That spirit of service inspired her pursuit of journalism and a career rooted in her belief that storytelling is the ultimate tool for human connection, community impact, and helping people feel seen. Whether producing the Emmy-winning documentary The Future is Female: Women, Space and NASA or hosting the Common Threads podcast at Lehigh Valley Public Media, Megan is deeply committed to uplifting women’s lived experiences. As a media educator, she trains the next generation of creators to find their authentic voices through digital media. Her dedication to women extends beyond the screen as the founder of Respect M.O.M. (Maternal Outcomes Matter), a nonprofit focused on breaking the silence around birth trauma and funding specialized recovery services for under-resourced families.
