Inviting reflection, healing, and systemic change through language, story, and truth-telling.
Inviting deeper understanding, collective healing, and systems change through story, science, and soul.
I don’t deliver lectures.
Whether I’m guiding a keynote, an immersive workshop, or a facilitated dialogue, each experience is designed to help people reconnect to their inner truth, examine the systems around them, and imagine new possibilities for personal and collective well-being.
I create spaces for transformation.
I weave together neuroscience, spirituality, trauma healing, and systemic insight making complex ideas clear, relatable, relevant and empowering.
Participants leave with language that liberates, tools that support action, and an invitation to step into balance and integrity.
These offerings are for those who are ready to go beyond awareness, and into meaningful change.

Custom Conversations & Community Offerings
Sometimes what’s needed doesn’t yet have a name.
That’s where co-creation begins.
In addition to my core programs, I love designing offerings that reflect the unique spirit and rich nuance of each group, creating depth and space for meaningful transformation. Whether it's a small gathering, a multi-sector convening, or a community facing something tender, I welcome the opportunity to co-create grounded, responsive, and meaningful experiences.
Previously Developed Custom Programs
Rural Wisdom Could Save Us All
A heartfelt reflection on what the world has forgotten, and what rural communities have quietly preserved.
This offering honors the grounded wisdom of rural and farming communities: the integrity, patience, and resilience that continue to thrive beneath society’s obsession with speed and spectacle. Through story, systems insight, and cultural reflection, this talk lifts up what’s often overlooked — the values that live in rhythm with nature and hold deep relevance for our collective future.
Originally created for a gathering of farming communities in Missouri.
Good Medicine:
The Quiet Power of Volunteering
A science-backed, soul-centered reframing of service as a source of renewal, not depletion.
This offering invites audiences to reimagine what it means to give of ourselves, freely and as nourishment, not out of obligation.
Blending neuroscience, story, and heart, this talk explores how meaningful service calms the nervous system, reduces stress, restores purpose, and strengthens our sense of connection.
Ideal for nonprofits, service networks, faith-based initiatives, and community-minded professionals seeking reconnection in the face of burnout or disillusionment.
Nourish to Flourish:
Mental Health Tools for Educators and Their Classrooms
A restorative, movement-integrated session for educators navigating emotional fatigue and growing demands.
This offering was designed to feel like a breath in the midst of the overwhelm. With humor, story, and trauma-informed tools, this session equips educators with accessible strategies they can use immediately, with students and for themselves.
Rather than adding one more thing to a teacher’s plate, this talk honors the emotional labor of education and reframes it through the lens of regulation, joy, and sustainable care.
Participants will move, reflect, and reconnect to the heart of why they do what they do, and how to keep doing it well, without losing themselves in the process.
