This event is the one I am most known for, and with good reason—it’s where women’s wisdom, experiences, insights and perspective take center stage for one amazing night. As emcee, I weave my own stories among the five women join me up on stage each year. It’s a classically old-school live event in that the stories aren’t rehearsed, nor are they streamed. The stories told at SheSpeaks are real and tender, raw and gritty, wild and relatable—full of heart, fire, humor, grit and truth. You’ll leave feeling inspired, moved beyond words, and connected to those around you in a way you can’t even imagine. Having held this event 11 times over the years with nearly 60 women taking the stage, the audience has learned they play a critical role as “catchers” that night—women, men, and everyone in between show up from all over the country for this beloved event—some see it as a rite of entering the winter season. What happens that night is magic.
Note: we took a scheduled break for this event in 2020 after the release of my second book, and then COVID hit, extending that thru 2023. But I hope to be back at it in 2024.
This is one of my favorite events—and it was surprisingly born out of despair. Like many other women, after the 2016 election I hit a low point. In the wake of that season, inspired by energy of the women’s marches, I decided to gather women and femme folx together to dance—as medicine, to relieve some of our stress, and kindle our power, but also to raise money for a cause that would directly benefit more women. I secured a venue, threw together playlist (kinda my jam…), and announced Planned Parenthood would get 100% of our proceeds from ticket sales. The event sold out quickly, we danced (and sang) our hearts out, and donated a hefty check to a good cause after it was over. And so HerMojo was born. When women dance together, the earth feels us and moves as a result—this event proves that beyond a doubt. Which is why I continue to do it every January.

Live storytelling is where I come alive on the stage—it’s one of my favorite places to play. Whether it’s SheSpeaks, my annual evening of women’s storytelling, or someone else’s event I’ve been asked to participate in as a speaker, it’s feels like magic to me. That’s the power of storytelling—to bring strangers together.
Weaving concepts, frameworks, and ideas together and punctuating them with powerful storytelling—and humor—is my antidote to the mundane, dry, and formulaic approach that keeps the status quo in place. Discover a refreshingly different experience that is relatable, memorable, and catalytic.
Experience and humility shine throughout all my interviews, and people can’t help feeling like they know and relate to me—even if they’ve never heard of me. I bring it all, speaking off the cuff and from years of practice, with my trademark humor and liberal doses of examples and resources.
