Awaken THE

FIRE WITHIN

SPEAKING

WE’VE BEEN TAUGHT TO KEEP OUR FIRE contained—

to follow the rules, stay polished, and express ourselves in ways that are “acceptable.” But that’s exactly how people end up living half-lives, wondering where all their passion went. Katie is here to call bullshit on that. 

For intimate groups, she provokes the kind of raw, honest dialogue that cracks people open—stirring up emotion, unlocking clarity, and sparking the energy needed to break through.

For larger audiences, she weaves powerful, personal stories that challenge everything we’ve been conditioned to believe about ambition, leadership, and success.

All speaking engagements are highly curated. Katie doesn’t do surface-level or scripted but allows her magic to lead rooms in intentional and powerful discovery. Katie speaks to the part of leaders who already know—deep in their gut—that they're meant for more. More courage. More creativity. More impact. And she dares them to claim it.

Because when we stop playing small and start owning what’s inside us, we don’t just change our own lives—we change the world.

  • "I’m not here for your polished, PR-ready version of success. I want the one that haunts you at 2 a.m. — the one that scares you because it’s real."

SPEAKING TOPICS

COMING unleashed

Katie’s goal in addressing her audiences is simple. She wants to see the spark within grow and stir wildly to the point that people feel an unruly urge to embody it.

  • Unlearning the fear-based conditioning that keeps us small and stepping into the full force of our power.

  • The courage to strip away what’s safe and feels familiar to create the impact we were meant for.

  • Designed to challenge, awaken, and energize audiences in a way that feels deeply personal—whether in a boardroom, a retreat, or a packed conference hall.
