WORKSHOPS

Workshops are laboratories for growth. Here are a few, but I can customize others for your workplace, conference, or church.

The Primal Questions Workshop

Are you stuck, discouraged, or uncertain about your future?

Let’s meet for a half-day, full-day, or two-day workshop to identify your Primal Question, eliminate indecision and confusion, and launch you to personal and professional growth.

  • Understand your Primal Question and Primal Map.

  • Enjoy lots of laughs and feel understood.

  • Make quick transformations.

  • Gain insights to lead yourself better.

  • Learn how the Primal Question heals, restores, and grows your relationships.

  • Develop a plan to integrate the Primal Question framework with your teams.

  • Discover clarity on your superpower and how to offer it to the world.

This workshop works with your business team, church staff, or part of a larger conference. You’ll gain more clarity and freedom than you’ve ever had to improve your health, relationships, and motivation.

The Speakers’ Workshop

Are you an excellent communicator in front of a crowd?

Public speaking is one of our most powerful tools for influencing others, sharing our message, and building our self-esteem. But many people are scared and ineffective.

This workshop teaches you to:

  • Immediately capture your audience’s attention

  • Keep them leaning in for more

  • Title your talk for intrigue.

  • Craft a motivating conclusion that leads to real change in your listeners.

  • Structure your speech to support your intention and your style.

  • Research, add humor, and use effective gestures.

I’ll exponentially develop your confidence and give you tools to become a speaker everyone enjoys listening to.

The Back-of-the-Napkin Discipleship Workshop

Does growing your relationship with Christ seem complex and unfruitful?

Let’s gather for a 3-hour workshop to learn and practice simple ways to live and teach the basics of being a Christ-follower.

  • Learn 11 simple drawings that capture deep realities and guide our practices

  • Discover the joyful journey of prayer, mission, hearing God, character transformation, knowing God’s will, balancing work and rest, shaping a just society, and how to talk to others about your faith.
