Speaking

My intent is to engage the audience in their own potential and connection to the wider world. This focus has been my personal dedication for over thirty years. I guess you could say I’ve been down in the trenches. Using storytelling, real-life examples and even guided imagery I seek to nudge the audience to discover their inner wisdom. Traveling the globe and engaging with Indigenous leaders has provided me with spiritual grounding and understanding of what truly matters.  These influences guide my life and work with others: how to live through deeply held values and thrive.

Talks have been called “inspirational” but the most unusual feedback might be this: “…her presentation reminded me of a silk scarf…gently nestling…supporting…leading…to appreciation of their own individual talents and uniqueness…”

Areas of expertise include: spiritual journey, mind-body healing, advocacy for Native wisdom traditions, meditation, applications of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and conflict mediation. Subject matter tailored to the audience.
