Keynotes

Whether for a conference, a beginning-of-year kick-off or end-of-year celebration, keynotes can be customized to meet the needs of your organization.

Keynotes can be 30-, 60-, or 90-minutes, with a companion workshop if needed.

The following is a keynote at an event called The Over 40 Revolution, sponsored by Darina Neyret Photography.

As I got headshots for my website, I started making connections between the transformation I experienced in Darina's studio with neuroscience and my own theory of transformation. I was then asked to share these experiences in a brief keynote at Darina's event.
