Change Your Story, Change Your Life

Whether I’m on stage, in a bookstore, or behind a mic, my mission is the same: to spark something in others. To remind people that it’s never too late to reclaim their voice, their story, and their life. I speak with heart, humour, and the occasional f-bomb – because transformation should feel real, not rehearsed. 

If you’re looking for a speaker who can energize your audience while keeping it grounded, soulful, and deeply resonant – I’m your girl. Check out my speaking topics…

Again, Only More Like You

Reinvention at Any Age, Any Stage

What if the version of you you’ve been chasing... is actually who you were all along? In a world that tells us we have to keep striving, keep performing, keep proving – we can lose sight of who we are and what we really want. Especially during life transitions, it’s easy to feel stuck, off-course, or like your story doesn’t make sense anymore.

This keynote is a powerful invitation to pause, reflect, and reclaim your narrative. Based on my book Again, Only More Like You, I share the often messy, wildly honest journey of personal reinvention – and how it’s possible to come back home to yourself at any age, in any season of life. Through heartfelt storytelling, practical tools, and soul-stirring truth bombs, I help audiences rediscover what lights them up, reconnect to their purpose, and rewrite the rules of what’s possible.

Because reinvention isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be.

Presentation takeaways:

  • Gain a renewed sense of clarity and direction

  • Create a personal definition of success that actually feels good

  • Explore practical steps to begin your own reinvention journey

  • Gain the courage to rewrite your story from a place of truth and alignment


This session is designed for women’s event attendees, creative professionals, career transitioners, book lovers, and anyone feeling called to reset, reflect, and realign with their true self.


If you’re looking to reconnect with who you are and what you’re here to do, this presentation is for you! 

The Power of Story

Awakening Your Next Chapter: Redefining Success Through Story

Most people undervalue their own story — and in doing so, miss their greatest opportunity for connection, credibility, and growth. Storytelling isn’t just a branding tool — it’s a catalyst for personal awakening and professional reinvention. When you own your story, you don’t just grow your brand — you awaken your next chapter of leadership and impact.

In this energizing talk, I’ll guide you through the art of authentic storytelling as a catalyst for growth, leadership, and legacy. Your story is your superpower, and I’ll show you how to use it to build trust, establish authority, and create genuine connection, all while crafting a life, brand, and business that truly reflects who you are.

This isn’t about having all the answers or a perfectly polished narrative. It’s about speaking from the heart — and in doing so, awakening the next bold chapter of who you are becoming. Because when you tell a better story, you live a bigger life.

If you’re ready to own your story, redefine success, and step into the boldest version of yourself, this talk is for you.

Presentation takeaways:

  • Discover a framework for tapping into the moments that shaped who you are — and use them to connect with others on a deeper level

  • Build a story that doesn’t just sell, but leaves a legacy of impact

  • Learn how storytelling strengthens your brand, leadership, and influence

  • Explore how storytelling leads to personal and professional transformation

  • Awaken your full potential and lead with authenticity, clarity, and courage


This session is designed for entrepreneurs, speakers, coaches, creatives, leaders, and anyone ready to use their story to lead, inspire, and grow.

If you're ready to awaken your next chapter — this presentation is for you.
