A world stage for Hope: Sydney, this August

This August I will keynote TheMHS Conference 2026 in Sydney, one of the largest mental health conferences in the world. This one is personal. I studied in Australia, and returning to make the case for Hope on that stage is a full circle moment I will never forget. If you will be there, find me. Let us talk Hope.

Grow your own Hope

Hope is a skill, which means yours can grow. It starts with knowing where you are today. Take your Hope Score, find your starting point, and build from there. The sunflower turns toward the light no matter what. So can you.
