Keynote Topics:

Numerous studies show that women consistently underestimate our performance and ability. And due to our cultural conditioning, we often feel like frauds and imposters and fail to use our voices and stand in our power.

In this presentation, attendees will discover how to deepen their connection to their intuition, trust their inner and outer voice, and step into their leadership power so they can advocate for themselves, their teams, and their clients.

We are all liars. Inside each of us exists a treasure trove of secret lies. These lies are based on our lived experiences and the stories we tell ourselves about those experiences. These stories lead to self doubt, negative self talk, loneliness, isolation, depression and anxiety. By recognizing our secret lies, we can reframe them and release them in order to turn them into strengths that massively shift our identity and impact in the world.

In this presentation, Sara will help attendees see how their secret lies can be used as a tool for connection rather than isolation. From there, Sara will help attendees reframe their secret lies in order to rewrite new endings to the stories that are holding them back.

Attendees will leave feeling empowered to step into their stories in a truly authentic way, from a position of newfound power, and ready to have a profound impact on the world.

When our mental health is stable and secure, it serves as a catalyst for productivity, creativity, and ingenuity. According to the American Psychological Association rates of depression and anxiety among US adults were about 4 times higher in 2021 than in 2019.

There is no denying our mental health has suffered tremendously over the last couple years. And in this timely and relevant presentation, Sara Dean will show attendees how to normalize conversations around mental health in order to allow all of us to show up as our most honest and healthy selves.

According to multiple studies, a lack of gratitude drives job dissatisfaction, turnover, absenteeism and burnout. While people are less likely to express gratitude at work than in their personal life, 88% of people say that expressing gratitude to colleagues makes them feel happier and more fulfilled.

In this presentation, attendees will discover how to adopt an abundance mindset and implement simple, sustainable gratitude practices to enhance their optimism and wellbeing.

Talent FAQ's

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

  • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
  • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
  • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
  • When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
  • Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
  • Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
  • Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
