Ageism is Bullshit.
Aging Freely is the Future.
Speaker &
Podcast Guest
Our aging ripples outward—shaping not just our lives, but the generations to come.
They’re watching us—oh yeah.
What we do today shows them what’s possible: later years full of joy, inner freedom, and vibrancy.
Be part of this change.
WHY I SPEAK.
Cruel and insidious, ageism fills us with shame for simply growing older. Most of us swim in ageist beliefs without even realizing it. I’m here to flip the script—showing that decline isn’t just loss, but the doorway to the expansions we’ve always wanted. Impermanence—the thing we’re taught to fear—is actually life’s elegant design.
My talks blend research, storytelling, irreverence, and wonder to spark conversations that stick. Audiences don’t need more “inspiration”—they need truth that upends internal ageism and tools they can use to live more freely, right now.
PRESENTATIONS
AND TALKS.
Every talk is tailored to your audience—leaving them with insights, laughter,
and practical tools to embrace aging with curiosity, joy, and freedom.
With decades of counseling, teaching, and speaking experience—plus TEDx and keynote appearances—I partner with event coordinators to craft presentations that engage, educate, and energize.
Here’s a sampling of my signature talks:
- Ageing Sucks—or Does It? – This talk dismantles ageism from the inside out, takes on the cultural narratives that keep us stuck, and shows how breaking free from ageism transforms not just how we age, but how we live.
- Life in Motion: How Impermanence Unlocks Awe and Presence – In this poignant exploration of life’s impermanence, we delve into the profound question: Can we not only accept but cherish the beauty of life precisely because of its fleeting nature? Audiences will discover how leaning into impermanence unlocks presence, awe, and deeper connection with life itself.
- The Beautiful Paradox of Getting Older – An exploration of life’s most overlooked paradox: that the very things we resist—slowing down, letting go, physical change—open us to deeper love, compassion, and awe.
