Biography

Ryan Neal is a Nashville-based keynote speaker, singer-songwriter, producer, and motivational performer whose work sits at the intersection of resilience, creativity, and human connection. Best known for his appearance on ABC’s The Bachelor Presents: Listen To Your Heart, Ryan’s journey extends far beyond the stage. A brain tumor survivor, Ryan brings a rare blend of emotional depth, authenticity, and high-energy performance that leaves audiences both inspired and activated.

Before stepping fully into his speaking career, Ryan built a diverse background spanning healthcare sales, corporate consulting, brand partnerships, and creative entrepreneurship. This real-world experience allows him to connect with executives, sales teams, creatives, and students alike. His message centers on navigating adversity, finding clarity through chaos, and building a life and career that align with purpose rather than pressure.

Ryan’s keynotes seamlessly integrate live music with storytelling, creating immersive experiences that audiences do not simply listen to, but feel. His performances explore themes of resilience, identity, leadership, mental health, and the courage required to evolve. He is frequently booked for corporate conferences, universities, healthcare organizations, and association events seeking a powerful, memorable keynote that breaks the mold.

At his core, Ryan is a storyteller who helps people reconnect with themselves and their potential. Whether speaking to a boardroom or a packed auditorium, his mission remains the same: to remind people that no matter their circumstances, they still have agency, creativity, and the ability to build a meaningful future.

If you're on the fence--book him. Ryan turned our wedding into a full-blown celebration. The transitions were seamless, the music was spot-on, and he kept everyone from our grandparents to our college friends groovin'. Total vibe curator.
