What is your favorite moment in the training room?

There is a moment when someone in the training room opens into trust. You can see and feel the shift in their face, body and voice. Once trust enters the training experience learning becomes a collaborative and exciting exchange.

What do you consider your personal trademark as a trainer?

I have a knack for deep listening. I’m able to hear more than words, face, body and vocal tone. I can aim answers, lessons, techniques and metaphors directly to the learner’s safety zone.

Which role or performance of your own has meant the most to you as an actor?

Currently, I have been touring nationally as Florence Nightingale (well, now I’m on-line on Zoom!). I created this one-woman performance as an “Ask Florence” experience. Written from extensive research, I’m able to perform Florence as a living conversation. Very rewarding right now to serve our understanding of the mother of modern nursing.

What can’t you start your day without?

I write every morning. One half hour of journaling sorts me out.

What is your personal motto?

Stories change US, then we give them away to change the WORLD.
