Public Speaking
I am available to give presentations and deliver keynote addresses. All topics are evidence-based and most have a meaning-orientation. As meaning-orientation is applicable to all areas of life, talks can be tailor made. As a Certified Dare to Lead™ Facilitator I am available to speak about the Dare to Lead™ Program based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown.
Please contact me to discuss your particular needs.

I particularly focus on topics like meaning-orientation, gratitude, epigenetics, the interface between science and consciousness, and couragous leadership.
To date, audiences have includes doctors, nurses and allied health care professionals, Palliative Care groups, and the Logotherapy community. Many of these principles apply to corporate environments and to Parent-Patient Support Groups.
Examples of presentations:
Logotherapy: What’s that?
An introduction to the principles of this life philosophy and therapy, based on the work of Dr Viktor Frankl
LEaP: logotherapy, epigenetics and personal responsibility
