Being personally invited by the staff of grief pioneer Elisabeth Kubler-Ross to train with them and work with them in grief workshops. Working as a licensed therapist for over twenty years helping clients heal old wounds, navigate present stresses, and create new lives. Serving as a minister for over forty years, sitting by hospital bedsides or leading retreat groups. Talking over a cup of coffee as a business coach, helping leaders work more efficiently and authentically.

All of my different experiences have the same theme: being with people in those places and in those moments that matter. Those moments when everything has been turned upside down and you don’t know the next step to take or those moments when you realize that everything in your life is too much the same and that doesn’t work for you anymore.

These conversations have always fueled my work. Now I’m sharing that work with a wider audience through keynote speeches, seminars, and retreats, offering insights, inspiration, and tools.

Talking about things that matter can be challenging, reassuring (“You mean it’s not just me?”), surprising, funny, and joyful.

I’m here for all of it.

Most high performers aren’t struggling - they’re succeeding in ways that won’t hold up for the long game. The very habits driving their results now are often the same ones quietly limiting how far - and how long - they can go. Dr. Kim Hollingdale helps leaders see - and evolve - those patterns, translating the performance principles of elite sport into a smarter, more sustainable way to perform in business.

A licensed psychotherapist and Certified Mental Performance Consultant, Kim has spent a decade working inside elite sport systems including the WNBA and NCAA athletics - where performance is immediate, visible, and measured under constant pressure - what works (and what doesn’t) is impossible to ignore.

Now, Kim brings those lessons and clarity into other high-performance environments, translating them into practical ways business leaders can think sharper, make better decisions, and sustain their edge over years and decades, not just weeks and months.

Known for her witty, engaging style and ability to turn complex performance science into practical application, Kim equips leaders and teams with the clarity needed to perform at their best - and stay there.

Frank Berenyi is a Maine entrepreneur and the founder of Marijuanaville, a medical cannabis company he launched on January 1, 2022 and has grown into a statewide network of 13 locations supported by approximately 50 team members.

His perspective is grounded in years of competition and ownership. A competitive athlete and martial artist, he opened his own school at eighteen and competed nationally, earning titles at the local, state, regional, and national levels, before building businesses in hospitality and real estate across Maine — owning and operating more than nine bars and nightclubs by the age of 30 and buying, renovating, and owning properties throughout the state.

He founded Marijuanaville to make medical cannabis more accessible and more affordable for patients throughout Maine, building a statewide footprint — headquartered at 68 College Avenue in Waterville — designed to shorten the distance patients have to travel. Frank Berenyi is also a consistent supporter of charities, shelters, and community organizations.

A passionate advocate for lifelong growth and reinvention, Hani's message is grounded not only in research and professional experience, but also in lived experience. He has run several marathons, climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and produced a documentary about the experience that was nominated at several independent film festivals, completed a full IRONMAN triathlon and a Spartan obstacle race, built a second career as a psychologist, and completed a doctoral dissertation in his 60s.

A contributor to the Montreal Gazette and industry publications, and a television guest on the topics of mindfulness and wellbeing, Hani is known for his dynamic presence, compelling storytelling, and ability to translate complex ideas into practical action.

Dr. Stephanie Nash, PhD, OTR/L, is an occupational therapist, intuitive practitioner, and the founder of Paradigm Expansions, where she helps high-achieving empaths, women, and especially those who have spent a lifetime over-functioning for others find their way back to themselves. Her work sits at a rare intersection: clinical neuroscience and rehabilitation science meet chakra-based and intuitive frameworks, giving the analytical mind permission to step aside so the soul can be heard.
Dr. Steph speaks on the science and spirituality of intuition, what it really means to choose yourself without being selfish, and why we need an expanded paradigm of who we are as both spiritual and human beings. Drawing on her own journey from self-abandonment to self-reclamation, chronicled in her forthcoming book The D Word, she brings audiences a rare combination of clinical credibility and lived experience.
Her talks leave audiences with both a framework and a felt sense of permission, whether she's speaking to a room of women rebuilding after loss, empaths learning to set boundaries, or teenagers beginning to ask who they are beneath who they were told to be.
