A recommendation from my LinkedIn profile:
"Connie did a great job providing a keynote address and learning opportunity for our region’s funded partner kick off meeting. Her words were impactful and the message was exactly what we hoped for- appreciation for the past year’s work and accomplishments and inspirational and motivational for the year ahead. Highly Recommend!"
As a busy event planner or professional looking to hire a speaker, I know the last task you need is to manage your guest speaker. Therefore, I have made my speaking and presentation offerings as simple and cleanly packaged as possible. I have several different speaking packages that are easy for you to choose from, based on audience, desired outcomes, budget, and allotted timeframe.
My speaking topics can be customized. My speaking offerings are packaged to include: 30, 60, and 90-minute presentations, as well as half day and full day with workshops accompanying the half and full day.
If there is a topic you do not see on the list, please inquire as I can design a talk for your audience and based on your needs. Some previous topics have included:
Keynote Presenter
I have served as a keynote presenter for:
1. Age Guide Northeastern Illinois in 2021 with a message of resiliency immediately following the pandemic. It was an uplifting message to honor and celebrate the employee's resiliency and Herculean efforts to support and serve older adults, caregivers and their families during the COVID pandemic, as well as to motivate, inspire, and prepare them for the year ahead by providing resiliency strategies and mindset tactics.
2. International Certification Board of Coaches and Hypnotists (ICBCH) in 2022 with a message to my colleagues of having unshakable confidence during uncertain times. It was a high energy presentation framed around what can occur when we give one more degree (turn up the heat) with all that we do.
3. Tommy Corral Memorial Foundation's Restore and Resilience Retreat in April 2022 with a message or resilience and self-love. It was an interactive and impactful speech that started the weekend-long retreat off in the right direction.
4. Michigan Hypnosis Conference in September 2024 as the lead keynote presenter. The topic was Living Your Legacy and the audience was moved to tears as well as raucous laughter throughout the high-energy, inspirational speech.
Professional Emcee
In February 2025, I served as the event emcee for a sold-out, all-day event titled, "The Start-Up Spark: Igniting Your Entrepreneurial Journey" where I kept the audience energized and engaged while also opening the day with an inspirational story about the entrepreneurial journey.
Stand-Up Comedian
In February 2025, I performed my first stand-up comedy show with two friends titled, "It Is What It Is." We performed to a sold-out show of more than 100 individuals in Wisconsin.
Although none of us are professional comedians (yet!) we did this to push ourselves, get out of our comfort zone, and create a new experience from something that scared us.
For me, it was easy to say yes because I live my life from a quote I heard two decades ago by Frank Scully, "Why not go out on a limb? Isn't that where the fruit is?"
