Maci Bookout (Teen Mom)

After appearing on the hit MTV show Teen Mom, Maci became a fan favorite on the series. Maci gave birth to her son Bentley at the age of 16, potentially putting the brakes on her ambitious plans for college and socializing - but Maci decided to not let that happen. Maci talks about how teen motherhood made her even more determined to follow her dreams, continue her education, and juggle the role of being a mother while bettering herself. Although Maci's message strikes a chord with non-traditional audiences, she inspires all attendees to maintain a positive outlook despite the curveballs life can throw you.
