Most Keynotes Inspire.
Mine Transform.
I reveal the invisible patterns that control how people think, make decisions, and choose health – then give them a 29-day follow-through system that creates real behavioral transformation, not temporary motivation.
Humans are wired for survival, not change. We resist change even when we want it. And we resist being told what to do… even when we’re the ones telling ourselves what to do!
I show people why changing our habits and behaviors is inherently difficult, and what must happen internally for a new behavior to stick.
Whether I’m speaking about decision-making or health, the real transformation begins when people stop trying to apply someone else’s advice and start seeing their habits, triggers, and choices through the lens of their own life.
That’s the difference between short-term motivation and behavioral change that lasts a lifetime.
About Me
I’m a speaker, author, and creator of the 29-Day Follow-Through System — a practical, science-based approach that helps people think more clearly, make better decisions, and build better health.
My work blends behavioral science, psychology, and decades of entrepreneurial experience, including creating the bestselling game MindTrap®. Over the years, I’ve seen how smart, capable people fall into predictable patterns that quietly distort their choices and drain their energy, not because they lack intelligence, but because they’ve never been shown what’s really driving their decisions.
My keynotes and daily micro-learning programs reveal those hidden patterns and show people how to break them. Whether the challenge is decision-making, health, or personal clarity, I give teams the tools to replace guesswork with understanding, and replace old habits with choices that actually work.
My goal is simple: to help people see themselves differently… and change what they can do as a result.
Two Keynotes. One Mission.
To help people think more clearly, decide more confidently,
and live with more energy and resilience.
You Can Make Any Critical Decision With 100% Certainty
The Skill Everyone Wants, but Almost No One Has
Behind every success, every regret, and every life-changing outcome was a decision that once felt right. But confidence without a system is a gamble few can afford. Decision certainty – knowing you’re right before the results arrive isn’t luck. It’s a skill. One you can learn, measure, and use to protect your time, money, health and opportunities when the stakes are highest.
Health is a Choice... If You Know How
Why Diets Fail, Energy Drops, and the Key to Health Starts in the Mind
A liberating keynote that reframes health as a performance advantage – not a willpower challenge. Audiences learn why traditional health advice fails and how simple choices restore energy, clarity, mood, and resilience. More importantly they will learn how to change their perspective so completely, that choosing health and living a healthy lifestyle will become the easiest and most natural thing they do.
Why These Keynotes
Work So Well
This is change that doesn’t fade
after 48 hours.
These talks resonate because they reveal truths people have felt but could never explain… about their thinking, their energy, and their daily habits.
They are simple without being simplistic, insightful without being academic, and practical without being prescriptive.
Organizations choose me because my approach is:
- science-based … but easy to understand
- relevant to every level of an organization
- non-judgmental … NOT based on assumptions
- transformational, instead of motivational
- reinforced with daily follow-through and first-hand experience so the insight lasts
Insight That Lasts.
Change That Sticks.
Every keynote includes the option of a 29-day follow-through program; a short daily lesson that reinforces the key concepts until they become part of everyday thinking and behavior.
Two Follow-Through Programs:
- 29 Days to Better Decisions and a Better Life
- 29 Days to Reclaiming Your Vitality
Each program takes less than 10 minutes per day, requires no apps or logins, and works on any device.
It’s the bridge between a great keynote and permanent change.
