With diverse abilities, these are just a taste of Judy’s presentations:
Finding Treasure in Life’s Wreckage: A 2nd Act
(Perfect for organizations focusing on women’s health, cancer, or women’s leadership.)
Challenge. Crisis. Catastrophe. No one sails through life without a stormy day. And sometimes those storms send us so far off course, we feel as though we’ll never recover. Cancer certainly ranks high, but so does a job change, divorce, financial woes, and the death of a loved one. Whether personal or professional, we must find ways to recover and return to life.
Judy helps audiences make sense of their darkest hours. Then, she’ll show them how to find the lessons in their life challenge and how to use them to create a 2nd Act that can improve their life and the lives of others.
This presentation can be focused for healthcare professionals, patients, or a general audience. It rolls history, science, drama and humor into one amazing presentation.
Audience take aways:
- Understanding why and how creating a 2nd Act will help them move on from life challenges.
- Medical professionals will learn the importance of pro-social behavior in helping patients recover.
- Solid steps for creating a 2nd Act.
- If appropriate, exercises to keep lives on the track to success when facing future challenges.
“Judy set the bar high for any other speaker we will engage!”
– Nancy Dean, Arizona Foundation for Women
Confessions of a Research Junkie
(Perfect for writers’ groups, book clubs, or any organization dealing with editorial research.)
Writing books is serious business. Painting detailed settings and giving breath to characters is a must to draw in readers. They should feel as though they’re hiding from assassins in Nazi-occupied France, or pounding the halls of Congress to confront stubborn lawmakers.
Those are just two scenarios Judy has painted into her biographies, tapping into myriad online and in-person resources some writers have never considered.
So much good stuff can be found by researching subjects’ family, friends and colleagues, or by learning the weather, popular movies and fashion trends of the book’s era. Thinking outside the box will make any writing project shine above the rest.
Audience take aways:
How to build characters by researching others who orbit those characters.
How to knit researched details into narrative to avoid the dreaded, “as you know, Bob.”
When to STOP researching to prevent an “information dump” on readers.
- New sources (many FREE) for finding what they need without even leaving their keyboard.
“(Judy is an) excellent speaker, with a clear message and good examples. I’ll take this message home to my daughters and granddaughters.”
– Attendee, Boeing Women in Leadership Association
