Speaking Engagements

If your organization is looking for an ERG event, conference keynote or guest speaker - I'd love to help! My speaking events are an investment in staff wellness, leading to improved productivity, profitability, retention and recruitment. Topics can be tailored to your needs - but here are some examples of programs that others have enjoyed.

What Men Gain When They're Trusted With Care: In a no-blame, empathetic way, I break down the shifting gender dynamics of the past 50 years, and talk about how a balance in caregiving is good for everyone... including men's mental wellness. (Spoiler: women don’t want special treatment; they want equal treatment. And most men don’t benefit from tough guy masculinity.)

Breaking Norms: Rethinking Our Actions at Work and Home: Social norms permeate our lives at work and at home, subconsciously influencing our decision-making and limiting our choices. But we don’t have to abide by them. We can write our own norms! I help participants see the norms surrounding them and guides groups through intentional norm-breaking. Kate takes the conversation beyond the superficial, providing real solutions that benefit individuals, teams, and organizations.

How To Raise Healthy Boys: A lot of parents (myself included) are anxious about the unique challenges boys face in 2025, which includes scary influences, like the manosohere. But we can turn that worry into action, and truly be there for our boys. Using material from upcoming book No One Understands Me, I talk about what we can do to care for our collective sons and young men.
