CATALYZE Speaking, Workshops & Facilitated Experiences
Keynotes and engagements that blend story, strategy, and usable frameworks â so people leave moved and equipped (without the âpush throughâ energy).
Where a room shifts â and the momentum lasts
CATALYZE is for conferences, retreats, and campus gatherings that want resonance and rigor: lived story, research-informed insight, and practical tools people can use immediately.
My work doesnât ask audiences to âoverride themselves.â It helps them name the truth of the work â and then offers a path that protects humanity while improving systems.
If your audience is carrying burnout, complexity, AI anxiety, or a belonging gap â CATALYZE meets them with clarity, compassion, and a framework they can take back into real life.
Already have dates in mind? Stage Inquiry is the fastest way to explore fit and shape the right experience.
