Bar Mitzvah
Bat Mitzvah
This is the most important day in your child’s life.
Most people would rather submit to an IRS audit than speak in public. They’re even more f’tutzed about what to say at a Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah, in front of their families and G-d.
Hi! I’m Molly-Ann Leikin
rhymes with “bacon”
For over two decades, I've used my sharp pencil and sharper wit to write toasts, eulogies, memorials, Bar/Bat Mitzvah speeches, wedding vows, and industry award acceptance speeches (yes, think Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and Golden Globes). Every one is custom, and always confidential.
An Emmy-nominee, my clients include CEOs, CFOs and UFOs!
I’m happy to help you, too.
What Clients Have Told Me
So I hired Molly on Thursday to write my speech for my niece’s Bat Mitzvah the following night. Rocked the house!

What I do for you
We Talk
First we talk and make sure we’re a good fit. Then we spend an hour together on the phone with you telling me all about your relationship with the person your speech is honoring.
I Write
Using the stories and feelings you shared, I write dozens of drafts for me. When one says “Molly, I’m ready!” I’ll call to read your speech to you.
You Shine!
Once you approve your speech in a call, I will send that speech to you in a word document. I’ll even help you practice giving your speech.
When you and your occasion
deserve the best..
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Well, I think so. I’m Jewish. I attended Hebrew school and had a beautiful Bat Mitzvah, then spent a year abroad in Ashkelon, Israel.
-
Yes. After we commit to a project, we schedule 60 minutes to speak together. During that time, I learn your speech patterns, along with words you would or would not say. I want your speech to sound like you, not me, and it will.
-
I’m the only writer in my company and create everything myself – from scratch, with you. My staff answers emails and does emergency York Peppermint Patty runs, but everything written for my clients is written by me.
-
No! I hate forms. You’re a person, unique, dreaming different dreams and having particular ways of expressing yourself. I’m all about – and only about – one-on-one, live conversations. I won’t ever trust your occasion to an impersonal, generic form. Ever.
-
I’m connected to over 12,000 professionals on LinkedIn. In addition, I’ve been recommended by hundreds of event professionals – from florists to caterers to priests, rabbis, and musicians. The people who know me know my excellent work and support me with their kind referrals. Take a look at my writing samples.
