Talks & Workshops for Trail and Ultrarunners -

I am currently offering three talks/workshops. Check them out below, and if you have any questions, please let me know.

I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you and finding out what kind of event you are hosting.

All of my mental wellness content, talks, and workshops are for informational purposes only and are not counseling.

Talks and workshops offered

1. The Power of Mindfulness in Trail Running. THE POWER IS WITHIN YOURSELF

Who this workshop is for: Run coaches; trail and ultra businesses; trail and ultra runners
This workshop is packed with high quality information on what mindfulness is, who it benefits, what the benefits are, practicing it at home, and using it for trail racing.
The workshop is interactive; I provide a variety of mindfulness exercises and lead the group through a couple. The exercises are fun and relaxing. I receive positive feedback from participants and they discuss ways that they can apply the skills that I teach them.
Each exercise we practice (and a few bonus ones) are in the PowerPoint handout, so that the athletes can revisit the material for practicing at home.
There is an additional handout, Race Day Visualization, which is the script to the visualization exercise that I lead.
The Race Day Visualization is moving and it allows athletes to access and harness their strengths and possibilities.
Participants have responded after the workshop saying that it was very impactful and valuable.

2. Anxiety vs Depression: Spotting the difference and how to help someone who is struggling with either emotion

Who this talk is for: Businesses and their employees; community event attendees; run coaches; trail and ultra businesses; trail and ultra runners
This talk dives into two huge topics, anxiety and depression. While these two emotions are thoroughly explained, listeners only learn the most important aspects, which can be applied more easily.
The key information can be used to help yourself or others.
I talk about what anxiety is, symptoms, and ways to manage it.
Learn about what depression is, symptoms, and how to get through it.
I discuss the overlapping symptoms of the two emotions because sometimes this confuses people.

What coaches and business owners need to know

If you are providing your athletes with a goodie bag or swag bag, let’s talk about how I can help you fill that bag. I’d be happy to partner with your business and send refrigerator magnets or something!
