Keynote or breakout topics
-
“What’s Your Story?”:
Powerful keynote or breakout: Focuses on
the impact the stories we tell ourselves can make in determining the course
of our lives, whether we endure tragedy, adversity, loss. Becoming aware of
what stories are active in your life can help you assess whether they’re
working for you or not and how you can disrupt thinking that is creating the
stories that are sabotaging the achievement of your desired goals. Can
include Q & A for breakout.

lift you up, blast open the door of empowerment and possibilities in any
economy. Karla challenges the audience's thinking to shift their stories
that they tell themselves and make the best of what is by seeing what can
be! Audience members will leave checking their recession mentality at the
door!
-
“Getting
Your Message Heard”:
Break out
session – Do you suffer from the “Didn’t I just say that” syndrome? This
presentation will teach the audience how to make their message hit and stick
to the brain. Audiences will leave with the
how to steps.
Q&A included for breakout. Great for people who present to boards, executive
superiors…or teenagers!
