Below are a few topics which are readily available. If you have a specific topic on which you would like a presentation, whether professional, spiritual or personal, please contact me for more information. I am always willing to tailor a presentation to your specific situation, audience or needs.
A Death Grip on the Torch
Passing the torch occurs in our careers, organizations, churches and even our own families. It is the nature of life, but what happens when we or others are unwilling to let go and trust those coming behind us?
​
In this presentation, we will explore the reasons and repercussions of holding on too tightly and how to overcome the apprension and fear that accompanies letting go in order to move forward.
Leaning Into Love
The journey of a caregiver is often lonely, distressing, and requires leaning into a love you never thought possible.
Whether you are a caregiver, or simply want to know how to support those around you, this session will provide you with real-life examples of how to navigate the choppy waters of caregiver burnout.
"Laugher through tears is my favorite emotion."

The Lens that Blinds Us
Each of us have been created with gifts and abilities, yet so often we look at others as being more important, more talented or more influential, only to look in the mirror and see nothing in ourselves at all.
It is time we redefine what it means to make a difference.
​
Geared toward faith-based organizations, but adaptable to all, Deanna challenges her listeners to step back and see themselves through a different lens, one that clarifies just how important each of them is to this world.
