About Ginine Emily Smith
Ginine Emily Smith is a CEO, transformational coach, international speaker, bestselling author, award-winning singer-songwriter, television & Podcast host, executive producer, and founder of the B.A.D.D.A.S.S. Lioness™ movement, a global platform dedicated to helping women reclaim their voices, own their stories, and step boldly into their next chapters.
With decades of experience in front of and behind the microphone, Smith has built her career around a question that continues to drive her work: What makes someone unforgettable?
Her answer is simple: Everyone has a story. But knowing how to leverage that story is what turns experience into influence—and transforms “Nice story” into “You blew me away.”
Smith works alongside her husband and business partner, Tracy, helping people transform their life lessons, expertise, and experiences into movements, brands, books, businesses, media platforms, speaking opportunities, meaningful relationships, and lasting influence. Their work focuses on helping others create greater personal, professional, purposeful, and financial freedom.
An entrepreneur and former corporate leader, Smith reinvented her life after the age of 50. Her work centers on resilience, reinvention, leadership, visibility, and purpose. Through consulting, coaching, speaking, media, music production, and video production, she works with accomplished women, entrepreneurs, leaders, authors, and visionaries who want to increase their influence and visibility while creating a meaningful legacy.
Smith teaches that a story is far more than something to share on a stage. Used intentionally, our lived experiences can become powerful assets—building connection, credibility, visibility and trust while differentiating us in an increasingly crowded marketplace.
“It isn’t enough to be brilliant,” says Smith. “People have to notice and remember your brilliance.”
Smith's personal experiences have played a significant role in shaping her mission. She has survived an encounter with a serial killer as well as trauma, loss, addiction recovery, abuse, profound grief, a near-death experience, and multiple periods of reinvention. Rather than allowing these experiences to define her, Smith has drawn upon them in her work helping others recognize the value of their own experiences and stories.
Her voice reaches audiences through speaking engagements, television, podcasting, books, music, and transformational experiences. Smith's original music has been featured in television and film, and her podcast ranks among the top 5% globally. She has shared stages and conversations with Grammy-winning artists, bestselling authors, influential business leaders and internationally recognized change-makers.
Throughout her career, Smith has invested years studying performance, storytelling, media, visibility, and the subtle distinctions that can take someone from simply talented to truly unforgettable. Her mentors have included professionals from the worlds of national television, Hollywood, music, media, and performance.
Her published works include, “Story to Stage – The B.A.D.D.A.S.S. Guide to Rising from Pain to Power” and the Grammy nominated, “Los Angeles Tribune Leadership Anthology.” Her philosophy is reflected in the message: “When you own your story, you own your power. When you learn how to use it with intention, you can create a ripple effect far beyond yourself.”
Smith earned a B.S. in management with a minor in music from Bellevue College.
