Bread is passed at the table with generational wisdom and love.

The purpose of my talk is to connect with solopreneurs who feel completely overwhelmed and underqualified in their marketing. I start by addressing the root cause of their frustration: repeatedly trying (and failing) to make someone else’s marketing strategy work for a business it wasn’t designed for. 

Once they recognize this pattern, I’ll introduce the three foundational elements that every successful marketing strategy needs—regardless of industry or niche: audience, messaging, and funnels. 

I also challenge the common tendency to constantly look outward for answers. Solopreneurs who rely on others to dictate their marketing strategy are setting themselves up for failure. The real answers come from looking inward. The only time they should be looking outward is to find mentors who help them uncover their own path. 

To help them take action, I’ll provide a free marketing strategy audit, giving them the first step to identify where they need to focus to improve their marketing performance.

In Terror Around the Table, Dr Fallon reveals the hidden psychological dynamics that fracture families and sustain generational trauma. Learn how specific brain factors can blind us to early warning signs - allowing harmful patterns to take root and escalate. Through years of work with individuals across the mental health and criminal justice systems, he reveals how ordinary girls and boys can develop into high-risk, even dangerous, adults when these psychological forces go unrecognized.

Learn how family systems - designed to protect - can become sources of harm, and whether these destructive patterns are inevitable or can be diverted. With a focus on the psychology of behavior, he challenges audiences to identify and confront these unseen threats before they cause lasting damage.

Description:
Parenting teenagers is a journey filled with challenges, growth, and transformation—not just for teens, but for their parents as well. In this discussion, we dive into what it truly takes to raise teens into confident, capable adults while maintaining a strong parent-teen relationship.

We’ll explore:

• The Role of Connection – Why the parent-teen relationship is one of the most influential factors in a teen’s transition to adulthood.
• Beyond Behavior—Understanding the Teenage Brain – How development, independence-seeking, and emotional changes impact communication and connection.
• Creating a Home Teens Want to Be In – How to cultivate an environment where teens willingly engage, from meaningful conversations to sharing family meals.
• The Community’s Role – How schools, mentors, and local organizations can provide the support that reinforces strong family relationships.

With practical strategies and real-world insights, this conversation will empower parents and caregivers to shift from managing their teen’s behavior to fostering a relationship built on trust, respect, and genuine connection.

Chat about how, not only what we eat affects our health and well-being, but how we eat and who we eat with benefits us, too. 
But we have huge environmental pressures, rising rates of chronic disease and questionable ethical practices requiring that we look to new technologies. How can we navigate this while promoting a community-first approach to eating?

In this dynamic 30-minute talk, you’ll discover how family-based volunteering strengthens relationships, instills critical life values, and fosters a deeper sense of community involvement. We’ll explore practical ways to find age-appropriate volunteer opportunities, overcome common scheduling challenges, and ensure every family member feels engaged and inspired. Whether you’re new to volunteering or looking to make a bigger impact together, this presentation will equip you with the motivation, tips, and action steps to start making a difference—one family project at a time. You’ll leave with fresh insights on how volunteering can transform your home life and strengthen your community, as well as a free Quick-Start Guide to keep the momentum going.

Conscious Communication is the key to building a deeply connected, respectful, and influential relationship with your teenager. It’s about shifting from reactive parenting (where frustration, nagging, and control dominate)….to intentional conversations that foster trust and understanding.

At its core, Conscious Communication is made up of three powerful elements: Vulnerability, Empathy, Curiosity. When parents practice these, they create an emotional space where their teen feels seen, heard, and valued. This isn’t about giving up authority—it’s about creating influence. The more your teen feels understood, the more they will turn to you for guidance.

Conscious Communication teaches you how to listen with curiosity, validate your teen's emotions without judgment, and express your own thoughts with honesty and vulnerability. This approach not only dissolves disrespect and resistance but also empowers your teen to make better decisions….ones that align with their values, not just your expectations.

When you communicate consciously, your words become a bridge rather than a barrier. You stop engaging in power struggles and start creating conversations that deepen connection. And through that connection, you gain the greatest influence of all….the kind that makes your teen want to come to you, trust your advice, and feel safe in your presence.

Mastering Conscious Communication is the game-changer that will transform your relationship with your teen from tense and distant to open and connected. If you want to be the parent your teenager turns to….this is the skill you must develop.

In today’s fast-paced world, family life can often feel overwhelming, with stress, miscommunication, and emotional disconnection creating tension at home. This presentation explores the power of awareness as a tool to strengthen family bonds, improve communication, and cultivate a more peaceful and supportive environment.

Through real-life examples and practical strategies, we’ll uncover how self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindful communication can transform relationships within the family. You'll learn how to recognize stress signals, respond rather than react to challenges, and create meaningful daily connections.

Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or family member looking to foster a deeper sense of harmony at home, this session will provide you with actionable insights and easy-to-implement awareness practices. Join us and discover how small shifts in awareness can lead to a happier, healthier family dynamic.
