In "One Powerful Way to Reduce the Negative Effects of Stress," I share a deeply personal story about navigating stress as a cancer survivor. Over the years, I’ve found a method I turn to whenever the fear of recurrence or medical anxiety takes hold, and it works every time. During a recent stressful period in my life—facing the possibility of a cancer recurrence, navigating a parent’s health crisis, and managing multiple new projects at work—I relied on this method and maintained balance. In this session, I not only share how shifting our emotional response to stress can profoundly impact our wellbeing, but I also guide participants through the transformative Freeze Frame® Technique, empowering them to take immediate action towards the emotional shifts they desire. This is more than just a talk—it's a practical, actionable experience that leaves audiences with a powerful tool to manage stress effectively.

In "Stop and Celebrate! Gifting Yourself the Path to Goal Achievement," I take audiences on a journey that underscores the often-overlooked importance of celebration in achieving success. After nine intense years as an entrepreneur (read: workaholic), I gifted myself a 2-month European sabbatical—a once-in-a-lifetime experience that was both bucket-list-worthy and deeply fulfilling. This trip was more than just a break; it was a celebration of my accomplishments and a reward I had planned for myself. In this session, I share how most people miss the critical step of defining a reward at the start of a project, and how this simple act can enhance motivation and wellbeing. I delve into the science behind renewing emotions, showing how celebration triggers positive physiological responses that reduce stress and promote a more positive outlook on life. Attendees will walk away with practical guidance on asking six essential questions at the beginning of any project, so they not only achieve their goals but also take time to celebrate their successes.

In “Retreat and Reflect: Creating Space for Big Aha Moments!" I invite audiences to explore creating space for reflection. Drawing from my own experience, I share how, after wrapping up three major projects in a single day, I embarked on a solo road trip—a much-needed pause that allowed me to reconnect with myself and gain clarity for the future. During this retreat, I stumbled upon the Karmapa Stupa, a spiritual monument that deepened my understanding of the importance of reflection. The experience reinforced the lesson that in our fast-paced lives, taking deliberate pauses is crucial for inspiration, validation, and innovation. I guide participants on how to integrate regular retreats into their routines, encouraging them to ask reflective questions that can lead to unexpected rewards. This session isn’t to convince you to take time off (although, yes, do that!); it’s a gentle invitation to create intentional spaces that foster growth, clarity, and renewed purpose.
