Grounded spaces for listening, restoration, and meaningful change.
Embodied, nature-rooted speaking that awakens connection, presence, and possibility.
Kathleen offers keynotes, workshops, and guided experiences for organizations, leadership groups, church/spiritual communities, schools, and wellness communities.
In a world that moves quickly and asks much of us, people are hungry—not for more information—but for experiences that help them feel grounded, present, and connected again.
My speaking engagements and workshops offer just that: spaces where individuals and groups can slow down, reconnect with themselves and each other, connect with the natural world, and remember what supports sustainable well-being from the inside out.
These are not performances or motivational talks.
They are experiential invitations
into presence.
What These Experiences Support
Through a blend of somatic awareness, nervous system education, and nature-informed practices, participants often leave with:
- A felt sense of grounding and regulation
- Greater clarity and emotional resilience
- Tools for navigating stress and complexity with more ease
- Renewed creativity, focus, and connection
- A felt sense of connection with the wisdom of their body and the more-than-human world
- A deeper capacity to listen—to themselves, others, and the world around them
The work meets people where they are and honors the intelligence already present within each system—individual and collective.
How I work
Each engagement is shaped in collaboration with your group’s needs and context.
Experiences may include:
- Guided somatic awareness and embodied practices
- Nature-based inquiry (indoors or outdoors)
- Practical frameworks for nervous system regulation
- Space for reflection, integration, and conversation
- Gentle rituals that mark transition and insight
All offerings are grounded in evidence-informed practice and decades of lived experience, weaving together science, wisdom, and presence.
Formats
Offerings range from:
- 45–60 minute keynotes
- Interactive workshops and lunch-and-learns
- Half-day or full-day immersions
- Retreat-based or outdoor experiences
Sessions can be held indoors, outdoors, or in blended formats depending on location and season.
Who These Are For
These talks and workshops are well-suited for:
- Leadership teams and organizations
- Educators and school communities
- Wellness professionals and healers
- Churches and spiritual organizations
- Nonprofits and mission-driven groups
- Retreat and conference gatherings
They are especially resonant for groups navigating change, burnout, complexity, deepening connection with the more-than human world, or a desire for more human and sustainable ways of working together.
Topics & Themes
Common themes include:
- Nature as a pathway to the Sacred — belonging, reverence, and right relationship
- From disconnection to belonging — how belonging changes how we live and lead
- Trauma-informed nature connection — ethics, pacing, consent, and inclusion
- Embodied spirituality — finding ground through nature connection
- Connecting with the wisdom of the body and the landscape
- Reciprocity and care for the Earth — remembering our place in the living world, and acting from that remembering
- Ritual, listening, and seasonal rhythms — practices for meaning-making and renewal
- Eco-anxiety and nervous system resilience — meeting what is real without bypassing grief
Each session is customized to meet your group’s unique landscape.
