I changed the story I told about my life, and it changed my life.

Now I teach people to do the same with theirs — on stage, in a room, or in front of an audience for the first time.

The short version

Seven years in bed. Thirty-three doctors. A diagnosis I found myself, after I stopped telling the story where I was waiting to be rescued and started telling the one where I wasn’t.

That’s not a metaphor I apply to public speaking. It’s the same mechanism. The story you tell about yourself isn’t decoration — it’s the thing everything else gets built on. Most people have never looked at theirs.

Workshops

Speech Therapy

The name is a wink. This is a communication and storytelling workshop — not speech-language therapy, and not a medical or clinical intervention of any kind.

Storytelling and presence — pairs, groups, presentations. The people who say “I have nothing to say” are always wrong, and by the end of the session they know it.

For teams, universities, and conferences.
