Speaking

I’ve had the honor of presenting at hundreds of events over the years, but in 2020 will only be speaking at events we plan through The Gifted Guild. If you’d like us to hold an event in your area, please let us know: hello@giftedguild.com!

Otherwise, I’m focusing my energy on developing lessons at Byrdseed.TV. Do check it out!
