Workshops & Speaking

High-growth companies promote fast, hire faster, and often ask managers to lead people through uncertainty they haven't processed themselves. This workshop gives managers and executives at scaling companies a mental health-informed lens for navigating interpersonal and performance challenges, without requiring anyone to become a therapist. It covers the foundations of psychological safety, how to address issues before they become crises, and what it actually looks like to lead through pressure without losing the team.

AI isn't coming to mental health and social services. It's already here. Algorithms are deciding who gets housing, which families get flagged for child welfare intervention, and who receives Medicaid approval. At the agency level, AI tools for documentation, triage, and risk assessment are being adopted without clinical oversight or staff training. At the client level, one in two people with mental health conditions report using AI chatbots specifically for mental health support.

This workshop covers how large language models work, where AI is currently operating across direct practice, mezzo, and macro levels, and what clinicians and social workers need to understand to engage with it responsibly, and critically. No prior tech background required.

Most founders know what they're building. Far fewer know how to make someone else care about it in under a minute. This workshop covers foundational narrative storytelling for entrepreneurs: how to distill your startup story into something that lands, how to structure it so the ask feels natural, and how to read the room and offer something worth the conversation.

Investors don't read decks the way founders write them. This workshop covers deck design and content strategy from the other side of the table: how to structure slides so the narrative holds, what each section actually needs to accomplish, and how to turn your pitch story into a document that earns the follow-up meeting. A natural next step after Elevator Pitch 101, and equally effective as a standalone.
