The 7 Primal Wounds Sabotaging Your Workplace—and What to Do About It
Talk Description
If your team struggles with communication breakdowns, emotional tension, or disengagement—this keynote reveals what’s happening beneath the surface.
This is not just another personality framework or EQ seminar.
It’s a raw, insightful, and research-backed look at the 7 Primal Wounds—identity-level narratives wired into our nervous systems from early life that quietly shape how people show up in professional environments.
The “I’m not smart enough” wound? That’s why someone won’t speak up in meetings.
The “I’m insignificant” wound? It’s why others overshare or overcompensate.
The “I don’t belong” wound? That team member may constantly feel excluded, no matter how included they are.
These emotional patterns run silently in the background—until they’re recognized and named.
What Your Audience Will Learn
How to identify pre-trigger signals that derail communication
Why even high-performers can be reactive or avoidant under pressure
The real reason confidence and clarity collapse under stress—and how to restore them
A framework for managing emotional triggers with insight rather than instinct
How to build safer, more effective, and more connected teams by understanding the emotional software running underneath behavior
This talk introduces the PRIMAL Response System—a practical model of Pre-Activations, Primal Wounds, and Primal Responders that gives people the tools to respond instead of react.
It’s not about “fixing” people. It’s about teaching them to understand the old patterns that drive their present behavior—so they can choose a better way forward.

Final Takeaway
You're not too much, too quiet, or too reactive. You're just responding from an outdated script. Let's rewrite it—with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
What to expect: Brene Brown meets Amelia Earhart.
Brainy & sass with a skosh of badass.
I’m a commercial seaplane pilot and practicing couples therapist who delivers hard truths wrapped in humor and heart. If you want an authentic speaker who makes people laugh and look inward, I’m your girl. I bring neuroscience, storytelling, and a dash of sass to the stage—from being raised in a 27' fifth wheel with no running water and electricity in the rural Sierra Nevadas, to winning an air race in the slowest airplane and managing an in flight emergency. Life gets turbulent. And I’ll show your audience how to fly through it with more confidence, connection, and courage.When I speak, your audience will walk away with:
- A breakdown of The 7 Primal Wounds and how they block confidence, fuel self-doubt and keep people stuck in survival mode behaviors (especially in relationships).
- A look inside The Primal Response System—and why it defaults to survival mode, even when it’s holding you back
- Tools to recognize survival-based responses and shift into grounded, confident decision-making
- A step-by-step of The PRIMAL Reset—how to calm your nervous system and rewire your reactions when you feel triggered
- A clear, compassionate reminder: you’re not broken—you're actually functioning exceptionally well (but your patterns suck)
