Before her involvement in the high-flying stakes of poker, Molly showed promise in competing as a world-class skier. Unfortunately, her path was disjointed after a diagnosis of severe scoliosis at the age of 12. Required to undergo surgery, doctors were convinced that it could end Molly's athletic career. Yet she defied expectations when she landed back on the slopes only a year later. Ranked as the number three mogul in North America aged just 21 years old, Molly's dreams of sporting success were shattered due to a crash during her Olympic qualifying run.
Having focused for so long on sport, Molly was left heartbroken and without direction after her sporting failures. Picking herself back up, Molly applied for studies at the University of Colorado in Political Science. During her studies, Molly accepted an assistant role that would ultimately land her in hot water as the entrepreneur at the forefront of the largest high-stakes underground poker game. Played by the likes of Wall Street titans, A list actors, politicians and billionaires, Molly eventually took over as the owner-operator. Ultimately caught in the act, Molly's story as an unlikely entrepreneur and her arrest has been documented in her book and the film titled Molly's Game. The film Molly's Game skyrocketed Molly to fame, including stars such as Jessica Chastain and Idris Elba, and she has since been featured on Ellen and in The Los Angeles Times and Vice.
Most recently, Molly launched the One World Group in 2020. The One World Group is an initiative that is helping to better the lives of women by mentoring and uplifting them. It also helps to support women in the various challenges that have been heightened by the Covid-19 pandemic, with Molly on a mission to develop amazing and dynamic women.

"I like to give the audience what Lily Tomlin calls the ‘goosebump experience,’ and that experience Molly is what I felt the first time I met you. I was so completely knocked out by your quiet sense of integrity, by your brilliance, by your sly sense of humour…and by the fact that I knew that you would be able to give the audience the ‘goosebump experience.’ There is no better delivery system ever invented for an idea than a story." - Aaron, Director
"Molly is awesome! Period. I have heard many private speakers and she set the bar very high for future events. Our event exceeded expectations on every level. The only negative: no one wanted to leave. Every single attendee, without exception, called or emailed me the next day with sincere and genuine praise for Molly. Her insights from how to deal with adversity to optimizing risk management blew everyone away." - Ron, CEO, Teramo Advisors
