ABOUT CHLOE TEMTCHINE

Chloe Temtchine is an award-winning singer-songwriter and keynote speaker whose work centers on one powerful question: What If Everything Goes Right?

After attending Berklee College of Music, Chloe launched a career as a full-time recording artist and songwriter, quickly gaining momentum in the music industry. She won multiple music awards, including the grand prize in Avon’s National and International Songwriting Competition, received record-deal offers, and had her original music featured in films, television shows, and major advertising campaigns. She became the voice behind national commercials including American Express’s 100th-anniversary campaign, performed on national television, including The Late Show with David Letterman with Ne-Yo, performed for members of Congress, and collaborated with acclaimed songwriters and producers whose credits include Beyoncé, John Legend, Fergie, Christina Aguilera, and James Blunt. By 2013, she had completed an album with Grammy-nominated Greg Camp of Smash Mouth and was preparing for a world tour.

The opportunities were growing, the industry was paying attention, and the life she had worked toward for years was beginning to unfold. Then, at the height of that momentum, her health began to fail.

After five years of misdiagnoses, Chloe, who now sings with permanent left vocal cord paralysis, was diagnosed with two rare, life-threatening pulmonary diseases and was told that she only had a few days to live. She would go on to spend seven years dependent on oxygen 24 hours a day.

And still, she kept creating.

While connected to an oxygen tank, she named Steve Martin, Chloe continued writing, recording, performing, and sharing her music. Her album Be Brave surpassed 150,000 downloads within its first 90 days.

In 2020, her condition became critical. She went into cardiac arrest, was in a coma for four days, spent 21 days on ECMO (life support), and ultimately received a life-saving, double-lung transplant.

Then came the return.

Chloe found her way back to music, back to the stage, and into a new chapter of her life with an even deeper understanding of what it means to keep moving when the future looks “impossible.”

Today, Chloe brings that perspective to audiences through keynote speaking, storytelling, humor, and original music.

At the center of her work is a question that changed the way she faced an impossible future — and ultimately, the way she chose to live:
