Live and Virtual Programs
Content-Rich. Motivational. Action-Packed.
National speaker, TEDx presenter, author and coach are a few words to describe me. At my core, I’m a connector. A connector of people to new ideas and to each other. As a former wallflower in the world of business networking, I know firsthand what it takes to overcome the greatest obstacle you’ll face – the four inches between your ears. Success starts with how you think and builds on how you connect.
In each program, I combine storytelling, humor, and interactivity with compelling data about the “Why?” behind our thoughts and actions, helping your audience understand their brand, their business, their clients, and themselves more clearly. No matter which topic you choose, attendees will expand their mindset to challenge assumptions. They will receive battle-tested strategies and actionable tactics for themselves and their teams along with a clear idea of what’s next and how to get there.
If your attendees are craving something fresh, authentic, and genuine, we should talk.
Looking for a subject matter expert who provides a new filter for information and connections? I’ve got you covered. If your attendees want a deeper dive, my most-requested topics are available as live or virtual breakout sessions, webinars, 1/2-day private workshops, and full-day intensives. All are experiential, motivational, and action-packed. Which one is best for your organization or event?

“If you’re trying to create growth in business, you need to hear Joyce speak!!”
“It’s like having Pandora’s Box opened about connection.”
“Easy things to do to trigger success.”
When I started in business, I learned by making mistakes—some very expensive and some that led to impactful discoveries. Through trial and error, I found my way forward, eventually adding The Pacific Institute’s training about the cognitive science behind the business mindset, and earning a spot as a TEDx speaker to share a snippet of my journey. As a thought leader, author and consultant, I’ve shared wisdom and insights with thousands of people across the country for the last 10 years at events of all sizes in a myriad of industries.
Are you looking for a customized package that combines a keynote with a private session for the leadership team? Or breakout sessions including book copies? I work directly with each of my clients to design the solutions that work best for them. Most importantly, if I don’t believe I’m the right fit for you, I’ll tell you. Because I never want to disappoint a client.

Joyce was great at helping us kick off another year in real estate. She is very passionate at what she does and genuinely cares about helping us understand how to change our results! So happy I discovered her…another great person in my life!
Joyce was not only engaging and inspirational but she also had us up, moving and interacting. She was terrific – and one of the reasons our conference was such a success.
