Keynote Topics

What happens when your heart literally stops, but your spirit refuses to? In this keynote, Kyreé shares his extraordinary journey: five open-heart surgeries, two cardiac devices, and a life-saving heart transplant that didn’t end his story, it lit a fire under it.

This is a raw and riveting account of surviving what few could imagine and turning that pain into purpose. He invites audiences to reframe adversity, cultivate inner strength, and show up as their full selves, even when life knocks them down.

More than inspiration, this talk offers a blueprint for getting back up again and again, with heart and humor leading the way.

Kyreé speaks truth to the intersection of race, queerness, and chronic illness—what it means to survive in a system not built for you. This is not just about identity, but about visibility and power.

With grace, wit, and soul, Kyreé brings audiences into the lived experience of being a gay Black man navigating the medical world, and how reclaiming joy, artistry, and community became acts of resistance. It’s part testimony, part transformation, all truth.

This keynote resonates deeply with LGBTQ+ audiences, DEI spaces, and anyone committed to creating a world where marginalized voices are no longer afterthoughts but center stage.

After nearly dying, Kyreé didn’t just bounce back—he claimed the lead role in his own life. This keynote dives into how personal tragedy can unlock self-worth, creativity, and purpose like nothing else.

Through stories of hospital gowns turned into stages, and transplant scars worn like badges of honor, Kyreé challenges audiences to stop playing small. Whether you’re battling imposter syndrome or just trying to show up more fully, this talk leaves people laughing, crying, and walking taller. Because the comeback isn’t just about surviving—it’s about shining.

Aimed specifically at healthcare audiences, this keynote bridges the gap between textbook and real life. Kyreé takes audiences behind the scenes of a patient experience that included everything from being ignored to being uplifted and everything in between.

He doesn’t sugarcoat, but he doesn’t shame either. This is a powerful, personal look at what compassionate care really looks like, and why the smallest gestures often have the biggest impact.

Perfect for med schools, nursing programs, and healthcare conventions looking to humanize care through lived experience.

Many people who go through medical trauma feel like their life stops at survival. But Kyreé believes that’s just the beginning. This talk is about reclaiming joy, identity, and ambition after crisis.

Whether it’s returning to the stage, embracing queer Black identity, or dancing like no one’s watching (but everyone is), this keynote is a call to live out loud, no matter what you’ve been through. It’s for survivors who are tired of being seen as fragile, and for communities ready to celebrate life beyond statistics. It’s bold, honest, and deeply human.
