Here are some of Christie’s most requested talks…
It Was Never A Dress
Reframing the roles, expectations, and experiences women carry—and recognizing the strength beneath them
Overview:
Women spend much of their lives carrying expectations. Titles. Responsibilities. Roles. Pressure. Caretaking. Leadership. Achievement. Survival.
Too often, the things women wear or carry are interpreted as limitations, obligations, or burdens. But what if the very things you thought held you back… were actually evidence of your strength?
It Was Never A Dress invites audiences to rethink the stories they tell themselves about who they are, what they have survived, and what they are capable of becoming.
Through honest storytelling, reflection, and practical insight, Christie challenges women to move beyond exhaustion, unrealistic expectations, and outdated definitions of success—and step into a version of themselves marked by confidence, resilience, and intention.
Because maybe it was never something that weighed you down. Maybe it was a cape all along.
What audiences will learn:
How to recognize the strength hidden inside seasons of pressure, transition, and responsibility
Why the roles women carry do not have to define or limit them
How to release outdated expectations and identities that no longer fit
Practical ways to reconnect with purpose, confidence, and intentional living
Why resilience is often built through the very experiences we wish we could avoid
Ideal for:
Women’s conferences
Leadership events
Professional women’s groups
Community organizations
Retreats
Women navigating transition, growth, or reinvention
When Familiar Falls Apart
Navigating change, loss, and the unexpected spaces between who you were and who you are becoming
Overview:
There are seasons in life when the things we once depended on… relationships, routines, roles, plans, careers, certainty, even versions of ourselves… begin to shift or disappear.
What was familiar no longer feels secure. What once fit… no longer does.
And often, the hardest part is not the change itself, but learning who we are when the familiar is gone.
Many people respond by holding tighter, resisting change, or believing they must immediately have all the answers. The result can be exhaustion, fear, frustration, or feeling stuck between what was and what comes next.
When Familiar Falls Apart helps audiences recognize these moments not as endings, but as invitations and opportunities to rebuild with greater awareness, resilience, and intention.
Through honest storytelling and practical reflection, Christie offers encouragement for navigating uncertainty while moving toward what is still possible.
What audiences will learn:
How to recognize the emotional impact of change, transition, and loss
Why uncertainty often creates opportunities for growth and clarity
How to release outdated expectations, identities, or definitions of success
Practical ways to rebuild confidence and move forward after disruption
Why becoming someone new often requires letting go of what once felt familiar
Ideal for:
Women’s conferences
Leadership events
Organizations navigating transition or change
Professional groups
Community organizations
Women experiencing personal or professional shifts
Burn With Purpose
(Without Burning Out)
Sustaining ambition, passion, and performance without losing yourself in the process
Overview:
Many high achievers know how to work hard. Push harder. Carry more. Keep going. They become dependable, driven, capable—and often exhausted.
Somewhere along the way, ambition begins to feel heavier. Passion starts to fade. The things that once energized us begin draining us.
The answer is not always doing less. Nor is it continuing to push harder.
The answer may be learning how to pursue what matters with greater intention, healthier boundaries, and sustainable momentum.
Burn With Purpose (Without Burning Out) challenges audiences to rethink hustle, pressure, and productivity while creating space for healthier ambition and long-term resilience.
Through honest storytelling and practical insight, Christie helps audiences reconnect with purpose without sacrificing their well-being in the process.
Because losing your spark was never supposed to be the cost of success.
What audiences will learn:
How to recognize early signs of burnout before reaching exhaustion
Why constant pressure and overachievement often lead to diminishing returns
How to sustain passion, productivity, and purpose over the long term
Practical strategies for protecting energy, focus, and emotional capacity
Why healthy boundaries often create stronger performance—not weaker performance
How to pursue goals with intention instead of operating in survival mode
The underlying message reflects themes woven throughout your work: intensity and ambition do not have to end in depletion.
Ideal for:
Corporate & professional events
Leadership groups
Entrepreneurs & business owners

Harmony Over Balance
Redefining success, priorities, and the pressure to do everything well at once
Overview:
For years, people have been told to pursue balance. Balance between work and home. Family and goals. Responsibilities and personal well-being.
But balance suggests everything should receive equal attention at all times… and for most people, that expectation creates pressure, guilt, frustration, and the constant feeling of falling behind.
What matters most today may not be what needed your attention six months ago.
Harmony Over Balance challenges audiences to release unrealistic expectations and instead create a life where priorities work together rather than compete against one another.
Through practical insight and relatable storytelling, Christie helps audiences rethink success, capacity, and what it means to live with greater intention.
Because perhaps the goal was never balance at all. Perhaps the goal was harmony.
This message reflects a long-standing philosophy central to Christie’s work: balance demands equality; harmony allows intentional adjustment based on what matters most in a given season.
What audiences will learn:
Why traditional ideas of “balance” often create stress and unrealistic expectations
How to identify shifting priorities without guilt or feelings of failure
Practical ways to make decisions based on values, capacity, and current season of life
How to recognize where expectations are creating overwhelm or misalignment
Why sustainable success often comes from flexibility rather than perfection
How to redefine achievement in healthier, more intentional ways
The orchestra metaphor and changing “pie chart” of priorities reinforce this idea: harmony allows different responsibilities to rise and fall as needed.
Ideal for:
Corporate & professional events
Women’s conferences
Leadership groups
Entrepreneurs & business owners
Staff development programs
Women navigating growth or competing priorities
