Mastering the Art of Presence, Confidence & Asking the Right Questions
Feel like yourself in any room
Spoiler Alert: You don't need to be perfect to command a room - you just need to connect. After 27 years of delivering the news under pressure, I'll teach you the skills that matter: how to read people, ask questions that spark real conversations, strategically listen, and show up authentically even when your inner voice is saying "What am I doing here?". In an AI world, how we show up with each other and have the tough conversations are the most important skills to master.
Perfect for: Sales teams building client trust, executives leading through uncertainty, universities training the next gen, and anyone who needs to influence outcomes through authentic connection.
Own Your Story When Life Changes The Script
Your authentic story is your superpower
What happens when the life you've carefully crafted gets completely rewritten? I thought I had mastered professional presence, until my husband's terminal diagnosis forced me to choose between the persona I'd perfected and the authentic voice I'd been hiding. Through storytelling, practical wisdom, and humor, I show you how to move from performance to presence and why your real story creates deeper connections than any perfect image ever could.
Ideal for: Leadership teams navigating change, organizations building stronger culture, and executives who want to lead with authenticity while driving results.
Love, Hope & The Unknown: A Caregiver's Journey
You're not alone in life's hardest moments
Sometimes the most important conversations aren't in boardrooms, they're in hospital rooms. When my husband was fighting cancer, I desperately needed someone who understood the exhaustion, the fear, and that impossible balance of hope and reality. We will all be caregivers someday. This talk helps you navigate the unthinkable while staying connected to yourself and others when everything feels overwhelming.
Essential for: Healthcare organizations preventing caregiver burnout, hospice teams supporting families, employee assistance programs, and any group helping people through life's most challenging transitions.
