Workshop Topics
laura enjoys working with event coordinators to customize talks within the scope of her work and experiences in the topics below:
Love & JUSTICE
Our country is more divided and antagonistic than ever. It’s easy to shut down, disconnect, and blame the opposing forces. It’s much harder – and more necessary than ever before – that we learn to make more love in our work around justice. Below is a sampling of keynote and workshop topics that integrate love and justice:
- The Inseparability of Love and Justice
- Inside-Out: the inner work of justice
- “What Got Us Here Won’t Get Us There” – new ways of BEing in social justice
- SelfFULL Love: distinctions for self-healing and personal liberation
- Rewriting the Future of Whiteness: white people and the practice of love & liberation
Love & LEADERSHIP
Across all different kinds of organizations – from small startups, to family-owned businesses, to large Fortune 500 companies – it’s more important than ever that we bring our value of love to work. Creating inclusive, high-functioning, high-impact teams requires a whole new way of leading. Creating those types of companies requires creating love. Below is a sampling of keynote and workshop topics that integrate love and leadership:
- PowerLESS Love
- Radical Inclusivity
- Making Love at Work
- The Heart Work of Leadership: how to lead with head & heart
- The Toxicity of Perfectionism
Love & FEAR
Most people believe that fear is the opposite of love. I have a different take: I believe that fear reveals what we love the most. And I believe we can learn to re-relate to fear so that it loses its power to prevent us from making love in our lives and in the world. Below is a sampling of keynote and workshop topics that hold the complexity and seeming contradiction of love and fear:
- Hiding in Plain Sight: the art and courage of being seen
- Fear as Your Compass: a new way of relating to fear
- Humans Practicing BEing: the radical courage of connection
