PROGRAMS

  • “Disconnected & Defeated: Rewriting the Future for Our Youth”.

    Format: _ 60-90min Keynote; 30min-60min Break out; 2-4 hour workshop- also offered in multi-day program

    In this compelling talk, Jordan addresses the rising mental health crisis among youth and young adults, where issues like anxiety and depression have reached unprecedented levels. While many attribute these challenges to social media and technology, Jordan proposes a deeper, more foundational cause: the loss of connection and hope about the future. Today's students are inundated with dire predictions about climate change, economic instability, and political division. The narrative they’ve grown up with is one of doom, not possibility. Jordan advocates for a critical shift in this narrative, emphasizing the power of positive storytelling, resilience, and hope. He suggests that the key to reversing these trends lies in inspiring the next generation to believe in their ability to create a better future. By highlighting stories of innovation and community strength, Jordan encourages a message of empowerment, making this talk an ideal fit for conferences focused on strengthening communities and fostering resilience in the face of adversity.

    Permission to be both a work-in-progress and worthy of confidence

     

    In a world obsessed with success reels and five-year plans, it’s no wonder so many young adults feel like they’re falling behind. Social media says you should be thriving. Society says you should be settled. But what if your 20s weren’t meant to be a peak—they were meant to be a foundation? In this empowering keynote, Jordan challenges the myth that you should have your life figured out early. Instead, he shows how the pressure to “arrive” too soon is not only unrealistic—it’s harmful.

    Blending personal story, humor, and psychological insight, Jordan offers a refreshing new lens on career, identity, and self-worth. Drawing from his background as a trauma therapist and identity coach, he equips young professionals with the tools they need to navigate their career paths with clarity, confidence, and compassion. This keynote isn’t about lowering the bar—it’s about redefining what success actually looks like when it’s aligned with who you are. Because real growth doesn’t happen on a deadline. It happens when you stop rushing and start becoming.

  • "Healing Isn’t a Hashtag: Why Trauma Healing Requires More Than Mindset Shifts".

    Format: 60 minute-120minute  [keynote, workshop, breakout, etc..]

     

    This program is perfect for:

    Survivors of trauma who feel unseen or misunderstood by surface-level self-help messages.

    Individuals struggling with deep-rooted self-doubt, shame, or identity loss due to painful life experiences.

    People who feel like they’ve tried all the “positivity” tools—affirmations, gratitude journals, mindset work—but still feel stuck or broken underneath.

    Therapists, educators, or support professionals who want to better understand the difference between surface-level encouragement and true healing.

    Anyone who’s built their identity around survival rather than self-worth and is ready to explore real, lasting transformation.

     

    The audience will leave with:

    A deeper understanding of why traditional self-help tools often fall short for trauma survivors, and why real healing requires more than mindset shifts.

    Validation of their pain and experience, especially for those who have felt unseen, dismissed, or frustrated by surface-level solutions.

    A new perspective on identity—how it’s formed through survival, shaped by trauma, and how it can be intentionally rebuilt.

    Practical tools and hope for transformation, including what it truly means to heal at the identity level, not just manage symptoms.

    Empowerment to begin their healing journey, with clarity that they are not broken—they’ve adapted to survive, and now have the power to grow into who they were always meant to be.

     

    Right now, the world is buzzing with messages of self-help—"Change your thoughts, change your life," they say. And for some people, that’s enough. A mindset shift, a few affirmations, a gratitude journal—it clicks, and their life improves. But there’s another group of people—people who have lived through real trauma. The kind of experiences that don’t just shake you, they shatter you. The kind that make you question everything—who you are, what you’re worth, whether you even deserve happiness.

    For these people—maybe for you—simple affirmations and positive thinking aren’t enough. Because when your identity has been built around survival, pain, or self-doubt, it takes more than kindness to yourself to undo the damage. It takes deep, effective transformation—a way to rebuild who you are, not just tweak how you think.

    Success shouldn’t come at the cost of your sanity. Yet too often, entrepreneurs and CEOs running businesses under $5 million find themselves caught in a cycle of over-functioning, managing every role, and constantly putting out fires.
