Getting to Know You

What topics do you enjoy speaking on the most?
I always love to speak on resilience, mindset, and systems – things I was able to really get a handle on during cancer treatment. Because I have the value of hindsight, I can really be a help to others going through difficult times and show them how to come out stronger, more capable, and better poised in their businesses.

What topic would you love to tackle next?
I’m currently working on several topics related to my website and how we use it as both a sales funnel and a multi-functional client tool. I’d also love to do deeper dives into wedding planner-specific topics about working with clients and the vendor team effectively.

How would you describe your speaking style?
I’m an animated person by nature – and my speaking style reflects that. Being a true extrovert, I feed off a crowd and love to bring energy and passion to the stage, while being sure to highlight poignant parts of my talk with calm and compassion.

What has been your favorite speaking engagement to date?
I speak at medical events sometimes about patient advocacy and how to stay sane during cancer treatments, and those are always super rewarding. For the wedding industry – I really loved speaking at TSE this past year, because there are so many different types of wedding pros you really have to broaden your message to be applicable to all, and I love a challenge.

When heading to a wedding industry conference, I never leave home without my….
I swear by these little watermelon throat drops by vocal coach told me about – I always have several bags on me when I travel.

Where would you love to speak next?
I would love to speak internationally. I’ve traveled pretty extensively and even lived in Australia for a time, so I’d love to be able to reach a whole different audience in either Europe or Australia.
