SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS

ROBIN GURSE

Robin's lively and interactive presentations inspire your audience to take action consistent with their values, goals, vision, and dreams. Robin connects with your audience members' deep longings to create the home life they truly desire.

Invite Robin to:

• Deliver a talk to open or close your event;
• Customize a talk to meet the special needs of your organization, business, school, religious institution, or parents' group; or
• Present a workshop or class on a variety of compelling topics.

Robin engages her audience with her warm, outgoing, and playful nature. Her audience members become active participants as she shares her Family Coaching expertise, experience, and powerful personal stories. Whether they share their own experiences with a partner or with the audience, write down their responses to questions on a handout, or simply listen, your audience will leave with new perspectives, tools, and practical steps they can immediately apply in their lives.

Depending on your organization's needs, Robin is prepared to give a one to one-and-a-half hour stand-alone presentation, a 30-45 minute presentation, or present a 30-45 minute overview of a topic, followed-up with a workshop or class.
