Community
Building Diversity and Inclusion into your Community
As we move towards a more global workforce, how do we ensure that our employees, colleagues, and teammates feel valued and empowered to do their best work? In this talk, Jennifer shares learnings from her time building both digital and in-person communities and how we can create a real sense of belonging when we come from different backgrounds and parts of the world.

In Bali streets are littered with ceremonial offerings as daily reminders of gratitude, acceptance, and forgiveness. In a township in South Africa, resources are pooled together for a community dance troupe. In this talk, Jennifer shares two very different perspectives-–from her time leading travel groups around the world to building communities at some of the world's most innovative companies. She covers everything from the nuanced to the obvious and how we can respectfully translate these learnings into the communities we wish to build
Personal Growth

Thinking about changing jobs? Want to take a break to travel the world without fearing a gap in your resume? Or considering starting your entrepreneurial journey? Stories help people understand your unique skills, interests and what you have to offer the world. In this interactive workshop and convo, Jennifer will share the stories that have allowed her to take extended time off to travel between jobs, and to transition from design to tech.

It’s what psychologists and neuroscientists refer to as neuroplasticity, or the rewiring of your brain.
How to Use Fear to Fuel Action
To many of us Death is dark and mysterious. But in many parts of the world, Death is accepted as an inevitable part of life. In this facilitated discussion, Jennifer uses her perspective and experience with Death to facilitate an open and engaging discussion about how we can move from discomfort and taboo, to collectively look at Death with curiosity, and even fuel for inspired action.
