I have critiqued over 20,000 speeches internationally covering a wide range of cultural trends, movements and, at times, upheavals. In studying the speech crafting, meaning and implications of these presentations, I have brought to light universal, common themes that are going to dramatically disrupt our lives and the changing nature of being human. I would like to share these with you.

 Tip: Every moment is an unrepeatable miracle. Breathe deeply.

 In the year 2060, who are we likely to be? Around us, there are powerful Disruptors in Science, Politics, Identity and Religion that are hopeful, uncomfortable and often startling. How will our values change? Will we forever be "homo sapiens?" “Progress” is a driver that`s, at times, thrilling and inspiring, yet is it always ethical? Together, let`s explore, discuss and stay ahead of these trends as they will be affecting our business, relationships and the society that we choose to live in.

        Tip: Through mindfulness, keep your focus on the present moment in a deliberate and non-judgmental way. You will feel solid inside and confident in your life direction.

 Your mindfulness, among business associates, in personal relationships, or in the final days of a loved one`s life can expand their vision of possibilities, or can shut them down into a contracted, fearful, negative state. All humans suffer. It`s built-in. Most people fear change. Disruptors run counter to certainty. Deep down, the biggest change is death. Together, let`s move forward, informed, clear, and with moment by moment awareness. Let`s create an environment, whether it`s for business or friendship, that supports life in all its bounty and beauty.

       Tip: "Can you say that tomorrow you won`t die?" Kyentse Dilgo Rimpoche. Be present to the moment, it`s where life is happening. Breathe!
