SPEAKING and MEDIA

I speak with organizations and communities navigating personal, professional, or collective change. Drawing from lived experience, the R4 Style framework, and The Crossing Trilogy, I create conversations that are honest, warm, practical, and adapted to the people in the room.

My signature themes include The Crossing: When Life Changes Direction; Still Here. Still Becoming.; and From Survival to a Life Chosen. I also speak about long-term survival, recovery, disability, aging, identity, purpose, reinvention, and the power of lived experience to reduce isolation and build empathy.

I welcome keynotes, moderated conversations, panels, workshops, book discussions, podcasts, interviews, and community programs. Whether the audience is gathered around a table or filling a conference room, my goal is the same: to offer language people can use, create space for reflection, and continue a conversation after the event ends.

For a speaking or media inquiry, please share the event or publication, intended audience, proposed date, format, and any relevant deadline. I will respond as soon as I can.

What conversation could help your organization or community navigate change with greater honesty and empathy?
