Not a keynote. A turning point.

You Don’t Book Me To Inspire.
You Book Me To Change Behavior.

Most speakers fire people up — and nothing shifts. They leave energized… and go right back to the same patterns. That’s not why you spend $$$ on a talk.

You bring someone in because your people need to think differently — now. Because the message hasn’t landed internally — and it needs to hit from the outside. That’s where I come in.

LET'S TALK

I don’t perform. I interrupt autopilot.

I don’t walk in with a story and a slide deck. I walk in with a message no one can unhear.

My talks don’t rally a room — they recalibrate it.

I take what’s been tolerated for too long and make it unacceptable to continue. I take what’s been seen as normal — and make it unreasonable. This is not entertainment.

It’s strategic disruption.

What Makes My Talks Different

No templates. No generic wisdom. Every talk is built for your marketing reality.

No hype. No clichés. Everything is backed by positive psychology research and lived executive experience.

No passive listening. People aren’t just watching — they’re confronted, challenged, and drawn in.

No forgetting it later. I deliver lines that become internal rally cries.

The Result

Not just energy in the room —
lasting behavior change across your marketing organization.

The Result

Not Just Another Talk. An Internal Reset.

The real shift isn’t what happens in the room.
It’s what you hear the week after: “Well… Dr. Debbie said…”
That’s when you know it landed. Not just because they felt inspired — but because something in them refused to stay the same.
