SPEAKING

I have a few things
I'd like to say.

Preferably into
a microphone.

I've got thoughts.

I speak about what happens when the life that looks perfectly fine on paper starts feeling a little less convincing.

Identity. Work. Loss. Getting older. Starting over. Wanting something different. And the occasionally inconvenient realization that you may have changed your mind about your own life.

These aren't lectures about having it all figured out.

They're conversations about what happens when you realize you don't.

LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR EVENT →

WHAT I TALK ABOUT

The stuff we don't usually
say out loud.

My talks live somewhere between a really good conversation, a well-timed question, and that moment when half the room quietly thinks, Oh hell. That's me.

CONVERSATION 01

When the Life You Built
Stops Fitting

What happens when nothing is technically wrong—but something doesn't feel right anymore? A conversation about identity, change, success, and the unnerving possibility that you may simply want something different now.

CONVERSATION 02

The Woman You Are Now

We spend years becoming very good at being who life required us to be. This conversation asks a different question: who are you now—and what happens when you stop making every decision for the woman you used to be?

CONVERSATION 03

Life, Reconsidered

A candid look at the assumptions we carry about work, relationships, aging, ambition, reinvention, and what a meaningful life is supposed to look like—and what becomes possible when we're willing to reconsider some of them.

Every talk can be shaped around the audience and the conversation your event is already trying to create. I don't believe in dragging the same speech from ballroom to ballroom.

WHAT I'M LIKE IN THE ROOM

Thoughtful.
Candid. Curious.
Occasionally inappropriate.

I'm not interested in standing at the front of a room and telling people how to live their lives.

I'm much more interested in asking the question that makes someone sit back in her chair and think, Well, shit. I hadn't thought about it that way.

There's humor. There's honesty. There are stories. There are usually a few uncomfortable moments—in the useful way.

And I want people leaving with something better than a page full of notes they'll never look at again.

I want them leaving with a question
they can't quite stop thinking about.

GOT A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE?

Let's give them something
worth talking about.

If you're planning an event, gathering, workshop, retreat, podcast, or conversation and think we'd be a good fit, let's talk.

Tell me who's in the room.
Let's give them something to think about
on the drive home.
