Let’s give your audience something they’ll actually use
I've spent years sitting across from business owners who are brilliant at what they do and completely in the dark about what their numbers are telling them.
That's what I talk about on stage, on podcasts, and in front of any room full of people who built something real and want to actually profit from it.
Fair warning: I don't do death by PowerPoint. I ask questions, run exercises, and make sure people leave with at least one thing they can use before the week is out.
If that sounds like what your audience needs, let's talk.
It’s all about making people think differently about their numbers.
Talks
Why Money's Tight
15 minutes
You're busy. Money’s coming in. So why does it feel like there's never enough? This talk walks business owners through the most common and most overlooked reasons established businesses stay cash-strapped despite doing everything right. Spoiler: it's almost never about revenue.
Perfect for: Chamber events, business owner groups, entrepreneurship summits
Improving Your Cash Flow
45 minutes
Cash flow isn't just about how much money comes in. It's about when it comes in, where it goes, and what's quietly bleeding it dry. This talk gives business owners a clear, practical framework for understanding and improving their cash flow without an accounting degree.
Perfect for: Small business associations, networking groups, workshops

Solving the Wrong Problem(New — available late 2026)
30-40 minutes
Here's what I've noticed after years of working with business owners: most of them aren't solving the wrong problem because they're careless. They're solving the wrong problem because nobody taught them how to find the real one. This talk uses two simple exercises to show any audience how to stop treating symptoms and start finding causes, in business and in life. Interactive, eye-opening, and guaranteed to change how your audience approaches every problem they face next week.
Perfect for: Leadership events, business conferences, entrepreneurship programs
