Keynotes

The question I ask myself every time I’m asked to present to a group of people, whether it is a small group of 10 or an auditorium of thousands is—“What do you hope someone in the crowd feels, thinks, or does differently as a result of this experience”? The art and science of connecting and sharing ideas is something that brings me a lot of joy and I’m convinced that these experiences can be more impactful than we are used to through the fundamental belief that the person in the audience wants something big to happen in their heart or mind.

My goal when I speak is to have a well-reasoned point or sense making around an issue of shared importance and also a time of reflection on why the issue matters to us in regard to our inner life and callings.

I’d love to visit with you to learn more about a topic on your heart or mind and the audience you hope to impact.
