Writing & Speaking
A body of work exploring presence, identity, and sustainable leadership.
The Thinking
Over time, a few threads have quietly woven themselves through my writing and speaking. I find that I keep returning to the same questions:
How does internal clarity shape what we build?
What happens to identity under pressure?
What changes when we slow down enough to pay attention?
Several ideas continue to guide this exploration:
• The B-E-I-N-G Framework — a way of looking at embodied leadership
• The Inner Edge — the space between inner alignment and outer expression
• The Messy Middle — transition as a crossing rather than a crisis
• Reframing Tall Poppy Syndrome into safe visibility and deep personal reflection
• Expanding perspective in complex systems
These aren’t programs as much as ongoing lines of inquiry. They deepen through writing, conversation, and lived experience. They’ve become fuel for my own purpose and direction in life.
Writing
Writing is where I make sense of what I’m noticing. It’s where I slow down enough to think clearly. Where patterns become visible. Where experience turns into language.
As an Executive Contributor with Brainz Magazine, I publish essays exploring leadership, identity, resilience, and presence — especially in seasons of change.
My longer projects, including future books, are an extension of this same curiosity.

Conversations
Some of the best thinking happens in conversation. Much of what unfolds in my life and practice begins there. They start with discussions I have with myself. I’m drawn to conversations that allow people to think out loud — about leadership, identity, transition, and the subtle shifts that shape how we live and lead.
Not performance. Not debate. Just thoughtful exchange that goes beneath the surface.
The messy middle of profound shifts that inevitably happen in our lives, whether we want them to or not. The quiet reorientation that comes with transition. Subtle realignments shaping how we live and lead.
I’m open to interviews, salons, roundtables, and collaborative conversations that create space for depth and honesty. If this appeals to you, please reach out.
Speaking
My speaking engagements grow from the same questions I explore in my writing and advisory work. I share what I’m seeing and learning, creating a thoughtful and interactive experience.
I draw from the same themes explored here — presence, identity, transition — and translate them into grounded, usable insight. I teach practical frameworks and facilitate thoughtful dialogue — helping audiences navigate complexity with greater clarity and steadiness.
