Speaking
Conversations that invite us to pay attention.
Talks and conversations about meaning, spirituality, human flourishing, and the deeper questions of being human.
Speaking & Conversation
I speak with healthcare teams, organizations, schools, faith communities, and other groups interested in exploring what it means to be human.
My talks draw from my work in spiritual care and spiritual direction, as well as my studies in psychology, philosophy, theology, and pastoral care.
Rather than offering easy answers, I aim to create space for reflection, curiosity, and meaningful conversation.

Featured Talks
Keeping Healthcare Human
Meaning, Spirituality, and Human Flourishing in an Age of Technological Transformation
How do we preserve what is most human about healthcare as technology continues to transform the way we work, communicate, and care for one another?
This talk explores meaning, spirituality, human connection, and the inner life of healthcare—inviting clinicians and leaders to consider not only what medicine can do, but what it means to care for another person.
Spirituality & Being Human
What if spirituality is part of being human?
Spirituality is often associated with religion, but it may be understood more broadly as our capacity for meaning, wonder, connection, transcendence, and the deeper questions of life.
This talk explores spirituality as a fundamental dimension of human experience and considers what might change if we began paying more intentional attention to it.
The Practice of Attention
Learning to notice what matters
Our lives are shaped by what we pay attention to.
Drawing from spiritual care, spiritual direction, and the study of the inner life, this talk explores attention as a practice for cultivating greater awareness, meaning, connection, and human flourishing.
