Workshops & speaking

Strategy workshops

01: Business model design

Map the value flows, funding mix, and economic engine. Pressure-test assumptions before you commit to them.

02: Positing and messaging

Sharpen the way you describe what you do — for funders, partners, and the people you serve. Sentence-level work.

03: Pitch craft

Build or sharpen a deck around the narrative funders actually need. Slide-by-slide critique, real-time iteration.

04: Custom scope

Have a specific problem? We'll scope a session around your team, your stage, and the artifact you need by end of day.

mindfulness workshops

01: Founder resilience

Stress patterns, recovery rhythms, and the practical tools founders use to keep showing up over years, not weeks.

02: Decision-making under pressure

How to notice when you're in fight-or-flight, and how to slow down enough to make the call your future self respects.

03: Sustainable focus

Attention as a resource. Practical sessions on protecting deep work without burning out the people doing it.

04: Team grounding sessions

Short, recurring sessions for teams in high-stakes seasons — fundraising sprints, product launches, hard pivots.

Three talks. One throughline.

Talk 01: Zero to launched: the messy middle nobody tells you about.

The honest stretch between "I have an idea" and "I have a business" — the legal forms, the bank meeting, the deck rewrite at 2am. What frameworks paper over and what actually moves things forward.

Talk 02: Building for funders without losing the mission.

Talk 01: Zero to launched: the messy middle nobody tells you about.

How to write a business plan that funders take seriously — without flattening the mission that made your work matter in the first place. From a nonprofit board chair and an active mission-driven founder.

Talk 03: The pitch deck is a story, not a slide count.

What investors actually read for in 12 slides. Practical narrative architecture, common traps, and how to find the version of your story that works in the room you're in.

Custom: Or — let's build a talk for your audience.

Talk 03: The pitch deck is a story, not a slide count.

Have a specific theme, audience, or moment? I'll scope a talk around your event, your audience, and the takeaway you want them leaving with. Panels and fireside formats welcome.
