An important announcement about school presentations.
Dear friends,
Due to my expanding teaching schedule, particularly with adult audiences and my one-on-one mentoring services, this will be my final year offering presentations to middle and high school audiences. This decision was not easy, as teaching emotional wellness and kindness programs to youth has been a major highlight of my career.
From now until December 12, I will offer a limited number of speaking engagements for students. If you are interested in reserving a date, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the students, parents, teachers, and administrators. The past eighteen years have been truly incredible, and the memories will remain with me forever.

Student Assemblies & Workshops 2025
Designed for grades six through twelve, these presentations aim to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health while encouraging students to view themselves and others from a more compassionate perspective. The day begins with an assembly, during which I share stories of overcoming challenges and emphasize the benefits of choosing a life centered on kindness. Depending on the school schedule, this typically lasts 45 minutes to an hour.
Follow-up visits to classrooms (or meetings with smaller groups) can be conducted after the main talk, or you may opt to hold a Q&A session instead. These gatherings are optional, but they present a great opportunity to:
Inspire open conversations about mental health and navigating challenging times.
Encourage students to share their own stories to foster meaningful peer-to-peer connections.
Discuss ideas for creating a kinder, more positive school environment.
Learn new skills to manage stress and anxiety.
Discover how helping others and daily acts of kindness are keys to authentic happiness.
