Speaking
Keynotes and guest talks.
Engaging, inspiring presentations designed to spark imagination and confidence in storytelling.
Topics may include:
The Story Factor: How True Tales Transform Audiences
What if the right story could shift the entire energy of your event? Courtney brings powerful, real-life stories, her own and those from the Mothertelling Academy, that prove how storytelling builds connection, ignites emotion, and leaves audiences changed long after the event ends.
Healing in the Telling: The Therapeutic Power of Story
Sharing your story isn’t just about being heard, it’s about being healed. In this talk, Courtney reveals how storytelling helps us process experiences, find meaning, and create stronger connections with others. Audiences walk away with both inspiration and practical tools for sharing their own truths.
Is Your Story Working for You or Against You?
Every person tells themselves a story about who they are. But is that story lifting you up—or holding you back? Courtney helps audiences uncover the hidden narratives shaping their lives, and shows how reframing your story can unlock confidence, clarity, and courage.
Unleashing Creativity: The Key to a More Joyful, Connected Life
When creativity is stifled, so is possibility. When it’s unleashed, everything changes. In this keynote, Courtney sparks new ways of thinking, proving that creativity isn’t just for artists, it’s a life skill that can transform problem-solving, relationships, and even well-being.
Facilitating
Workshops and series for groups.
Interactive, hands-on sessions where participants discover their own stories, practice sharing, and build trust in community. Available as one-time workshops or multi-part series.
Topics may include:
The Mothertelling Method: Find It, Build It, Tell It
Everyone has a story, but not everyone knows how to tell it. In this workshop, Courtney guides participants through the process of uncovering meaningful experiences, shaping them into compelling narratives, and bringing them to life with clarity and creativity. Attendees leave with a story draft they can share in presentations, interviews, or everyday conversations. Note: This is often a multi-part workshop but each can work as a stand alone.
Own the Room: 5 Tips to Speak with Confidence
Whether it’s a boardroom, a stage, or a networking event, confidence changes everything. In this interactive workshop, Courtney equips participants with five practical strategies to calm nerves, project presence, and deliver with impact. Attendees will practice techniques in real time and leave ready to walk into their next speaking moment with courage and clarity.
How Your Story Can Make You Millions
The most successful entrepreneurs, leaders, and brands all have one thing in common: a powerful story. This workshop shows participants how to leverage storytelling as a tool for influence, marketing, and sales—without gimmicks. Courtney teaches how to identify the story that resonates with clients, investors, or audiences, and how to use it to create connection, trust, and growth.
