About Kylie
Kylie Montigney is a driven, multi-talented force from Scranton, Pennsylvania, making waves as a host, founder, speaker, blogger, and dedicated advocate for young women. Her early inspiration came from her cousins, both prominent news anchors in Northeastern Pennsylvania, sparking her own passion for storytelling and media. Kylie’s enthusiasm for amplifying voices led her to launch Talk of Fame, a podcast that has, since its 2021 debut, featured over 300 guests, including public figures like Madison Watkins, Caitlin Wachs, Brianne Davis, Gilles Marini, and Gabrielle Stone. With her openness about struggles with anxiety and depression, Kylie brings an unmatched authenticity that resonates deeply with her audience, fostering empowerment and relatability.
Kylie’s commitment to community shines through NEPA Story, a platform she founded in 2023 to spotlight the stories of local businesses, artists, and journalists. Her dedication to lifting her community is evident as she works to inspire future generations to chase their dreams. This same dedication inspired her to create Empower Girls, an organization committed to advancing young women’s confidence and success in a gender-biased world. From mentorship programs to youth empowerment events, Empower Girls provides invaluable resources to girls while Kylie actively partners with politicians, activists, and industry leaders to drive social change.
Her blog, Wholesome Interviews, launched in 2022, has become a space to share motivational conversations with figures across entertainment, sports, and more, encouraging readers to pursue their best selves. Kylie’s efforts in promoting kindness and inclusivity have not gone unnoticed; she was honored with the April Power Recipient award by the All Rise Foundation, underscoring her impact in the entertainment field.
In 2022, Kylie also initiated Empower Life, Empower Girls, an Instagram live series dedicated to uplifting young girls. Outside her professional ventures, she is a proud sports enthusiast, with a special allegiance to the Los Angeles Dodgers, Penn State Nittany Lions, and Seattle Seahawks. Currently, Kylie is writing her memoir, where she will share her journey and the experiences that continue to shape her.
