Connect with Experts is a monthly virtual panel made up of three or four panelists and a host. It's a little bit more like a talk show/podcast. I will ask questions and we will discuss the answers conversationally. There will be a run through before the show so everyone is clear on how it works with as few surprises as possible. This will be scheduled once the speakers have been chosen for each month.

I am looking for people who know their stuff, are willing to share a secret or two, and are comfortable being in a conversation with someone who may share a different opinion than your own. 

This is a place to share perspective, further your impact as well as be impacted yourself. This is a place to really shine your authentic, vibrant light! A fantastic way for others to see you as the expert you are!

For nine months of the year there will be a topic. The other three months (quarterly) will be a DreamSpark panel where the topic will be picked intuitively on that day and the conversation will flow from there. 

Here are the topics titles that I have chosen: If any, some or all interest you, let me know.

1. Speaking: To Pay or to Be Paid
2. Fun with Finances
3. Ethical AI
4. Couples in Business
5. Against All Odds: Are you doing something that most people would say is impossible?
6. Business Funding: Boot-Strap, Outside Funding, or Joint Ventures
7. You Decided to Write a Book, Now What?
8. Selling with Ease, Energy and Openness
9. Social Media Overwhelm
10. DreamSpark - Making Decisions Intuitively

All panelists go through a brief alignment interview to ensure we’re a great fit and that the energy of the panel flows well. If selected, we’ll guide you through the process and support you every step of the way.

We’re looking for generous, grounded experts who care deeply about transformation — not just transaction. If that’s you, we’d love to hear from you.
