What I Do

I Help People Remember Who They Are, TheN Be It.

Remember

On stage, in writing, or behind closed doors with leaders, my focus is the same:

Helping people reset what matters and take bold ownership of what’s next.

Autopilot doesn’t just dull performance. It drains purpose. And the cost is massive.

This isn’t hype. It’s a call to live like your story isn’t over because it’s not.

What I Do

On stage, on paper, or in the boardroom—it's always about one thing.

Helping people reset what matters and take bold ownership of what’s next. Because autopilot doesn’t just dull performance. It drains purpose. And the cost to individuals, teams, and organizations is massive.

For companies
and teams

I deliver keynotes that snap people out of stagnation, rebuild accountability, and reignite urgency from the inside out. No slides. Just real talk, and the kind of energy that sticks.

The Story Behind the Work

I didn’t grow up around keynote speakers or bestselling authors.

grow-up

I grew up in Michigan, not far from a NASCAR speedway, in a working-class home where hard work was the norm and money was always tight. By the time I finished high school, I’d moved more than 15 times and at one point, lived in a shelter for abused women and children.

Those early years didn’t make me a victim.They made me observant. Adaptable. Hungry. They taught me how to connect with anyone and lit a fire to build something different.

I earned my undergraduate degree from Western Michigan University, then a master’s from Columbia University. I spent over a decade as a correspondent for NBC, PBS, and MTV Networks trusted to tell stories that mattered and speak with presence in high-stakes moments.

But the biggest shift came in 2025 when my family lost everything in a wildfire.

Our home. Our belongings. Gone. There was no five-year plan. Just one choice: Show up today or disappear. That became the foundation of The 1-Day Method™, a mindset I lived before I ever taught it. One day at a time, I rebuilt. And now I help others do the same.

In retrospect

Show up today or disappear. That became the foundation of The 1-Day Method™
