Motivational Speaking

Want to learn how I realized my potential and found an exciting new beginning with chronic pain? As a motivational speaker, I share my journey and discuss how chronic pain forced me to change everything about my life — including I viewed life as a whole.

I show audiences how I recognized that my chronic pain was an opportunity to help others realize that they are not alone and that there is a way to survive, and thrive, despite chronic pain. I help audience members realize their potential despite their chronic pain, and that chronic pain is not the end, but an exciting new beginning.

I also provide technical assistance concerning planning, implementation and evaluation of health and healthcare preparedness programs, assist with creation and implementation of healthcare policies, and assist with researching and analyzing the health literature, clinical practice guidelines, and federal and state guidelines to develop  comprehensive healthcare policies.
