The 1% Solution™ to Dysfunction in Business and Life
We have learned the masculine-only, emotion-excised approach to life—but the true power to shift everything, in business and in ourselves, lies in the small step, shift, and approach.

“There’s no emotion in business!” We all know that is a lie. This talk presents a unique perspective on balancing leadership and connection through authenticity and boundaried vulnerability.
The Patriarchal Castle™ names the limitation that stops everything from self-expression to self-confidence—and shows us how to get past the guards at the Castle Door.
After hundreds of years of treating businesses like machines, we look for technical answers when the real answers—unexpected, effective, and lasting—lie in the human beings making the business happen.
Using approaches from acting, improv, and storytelling, we use play to move into expanded and more skillful ways of communicating—with ourselves and with others.
Emotion is the key to interpersonal connection. This workshop teaches you to create bridges of communication that lead to mutual understanding and more peaceful interaction.
For groups dealing with emotional fallout, this workshop takes a practical approach to creating shifts in feeling and understanding that can last.
This experiential workshop takes you out of the rigidity of certainty and into the expansion of curiosity and wonder. What happens when you allow for the unexpected positive?
Every talk and workshop can be shaped around your audience, your goals, and the conversation you want to create.


Her ideas are infused with wisdom, professional techniques from years in the theater and the arts. The guidance I received in our session is beyond value, it has changed the way I see myself, her communication spoke to my creative self and my fearful self, and somehow released my worry, and allowed me to speak from my core truth.
I laughed through my fear, and found my natural personality and voice with her intent listening skills.

I have had a love/hate experience with public speaking for 30 years. Working with Lori the last few months has transformed my experience of public speaking into one of pure joy. She helped me move from being a good speaker into being a great speaker.
Lori helped me hone my message, deliver my material in my own personal style and develop a new level of confidence in my abilities as a speaker.

I took my new-found confidence for a test run scheduling a 1-hour webinar sharing my story. I will tell you, every fear in the world and every reason not to came up. But Lori had given me strategies on how to handle it.
A week later I gave my first speech as a "Bad Girl!"!! I thought I didn't do too bad but when I had participants wanting to work with ME, scheduling appointments with ME all because I shared my story... WOW! It was the greatest feeling in the world! I felt so free! I felt so EMPOWERED!
