Popular Motivational Seminars
Running with Scissors
A humorous but thought-provoking session exploring how media images, cultural myths, and personal experiences weave a subconscious aging story that impacts health beliefs, behaviors and outcomes. Kay identifies the top 3 things you absolutely must do to age with vitality and purpose for your full lifespan.
The Future of Prevention
A lively discussion of the latest research and what aging researchers are now trying to accomplish with hundreds of billions of dollars in funding from very wealthy private donors. What’s science fiction and what's not! Plus, surprising findings that may actually change our aging experience.
Aging - It’s a Family Affair
This seminar explores aging as a multi-generational, not a solitary pursuit. We learn about aging from our parents and grandparents, and our children learn about aging from us. Kay helps attendees explore how personal “aging scripts” impact their aging journey and offers strategies to build a family culture of healthy aging.
A Culture of Well-being
This seminar describes how to keep the demands of managing health challenges from becoming the dominant culture of care (in congregate living or an individual home), and offers practical strategies to consciously create a culture of well-being. Kay offers strategies for creating connection, community, hope and joy in spite of challenges.
Creating a Personal Vitality Plan
This session describes Kay’s award-winning Vitality Portfolio® approach to optimal aging. Using the familiar structure of a financial portfolio – make a plan, balance your (vitality) assets, and make regular deposits, the Vitality Portfolio® provides a practical roadmap to support lifelong health. This proprietary concept is featured in an award-winning chapter written for a book with Chicken Soup for the Soul author, Jack Canfield.
