What happens when we combine the power of creativity with the work of emotional healing?
We learn faster. We create daily rituals that serve us for life. We foster connections with collaborative partners, and we enjoy ourselves through the process.
And I do mean process: it’s time for us to leave behind the idea that creativity is equal to a finished product.
In this lecture, I teach attendees to begin to experience creativity as a daily process that can be applied to many areas of their life, which removes the pressure to complete a project.
Creative Resilience: Craft a Life You Love is available as a keynote presentation or an intimate hands-on workshop.
This keynote presentation shares my challenging journey toward acceptance of my chronic illnesses, with personal examples and lots of advice for practical application. Hosting a post-keynote Q&A makes it a stronger learning experience for attendees, who can ask me anything about my experience and share a bit about their acceptance journey.
The result is a stronger opportunity for bonding within a group, which makes this presentation ideal for smaller audiences. (This talk is ideal for illness support groups).
For clients who wish to create custom programming, I recommend this talk coupled with a workshop, which allows participants to process what they’ve heard in the first part of the event, and practice putting a plan into action when they go home.
This lecture on assertiveness will leave participants ready to take on the world. We begin by examining how a passive approach to our experiences can keep us isolated and harm our spirits and bodies. Then we examine assertive language opportunities: what kinds of words to use, what situations might demand assertiveness, and how we might rally support in challenging circumstances.
This lecture includes a handful of practical techniques.
You Are Not Invisible is most effective when it includes group participation. While some clients choose to host this as a lecture with a Q&A after, it also works great in a workshop setting with some hands-on role play.
Have you ever seen a fat wellness coach? Neither had I… until I looked in the mirror. Most wellness coaches focus on weight loss and nutrition. My approach, on the other hand, is focused on the whole person, and that goes way beyond weight and physical health. My clients also learn how to get healthier mentally, socially, creatively and spiritually. If that includes changing their nutrition plan and losing some weight, I can certainly coach on that – but it won’t be our only focus. Wellness looks different on everybody and on every type of body.
My speaking style is casual and conversational and I encourage audience participation. I am a dynamic and unusual speaker who can inspire and entertain audiences.
Jenni speaks like the wise — but super-cool — older sister you always wished you had. Her professionalism and power is matched by her empathy and ability to engage an audience. If you have the chance to bring her to your people, don’t miss it.
Jenni has a level of domain expertise, an ability to provide the right message to the right audience in the right way (and spur them on to action), and an uncanny empathy that puts her in a rare category for me: people who “get it”. So much so that I’ve not only had her speak at my own industry events, but have brought her in as a subject matter expert and strategist on client projects. Willing to have hard conversations, always insightful and cogent, she’s a rock solid speaker and one of my favorite people.
