Let's skip the small talk...

Looking for a speaker who doesn't just inspire but actually installs something new?

How to go from audiences that nod politely then forget everything by Tuesday to creating those "wait, what?!" moments where people are frantically taking notes because they're learning something they've never heard before.

Using the raw, real approach of someone who's lived it, studied it, and isn't afraid to talk about the stuff most people won't touch.

Let's be
real -

you're tired of booking speakers who sound amazing but leave your people unchanged.

You know the type. They give a great TEDx talk, they've got the credentials, but somehow your audience walks away feeling... exactly the same.

Here's what I'm about to share: how you can give your people an experience where they're genuinely different when they leave than when they walked in.

Using a completely fresh take on trauma, resilience, and what's actually possible for human beings - one that works whether your audience is burned-out healthcare workers, skeptical executives, or anyone in between.

This isn't feel-good fluff. Your people will walk away with specific tools they can use immediately, plus a fundamentally different understanding of how their minds actually work.

It's designed for curious audiences who are ready for real talk - no sugar-coating, no avoiding the hard stuff, just the truth about what transformation actually takes.

Plus, it's already created those "best training I've ever attended" moments for rooms full of mental health professionals, educators, and leaders who thought they'd heard it all before.

Though first, let me tell you exactly why I do this work...

Why I do this work:

From addiction to possibility

My name is Stela Murrizi.

I'm a Certified CODE Model Coach™, Leader at the WEL-Systems® Institute, and I have a Master's in Criminology. I've spoken at conferences across North America and facilitated intensives that help people completely rewire their relationship with their own minds.

But here's what you really need to know about me...

For over a decade, I was trapped in addiction. I carried intergenerational trauma that felt impossible to break. I was smart, educated, had all the "right" tools... and absolutely none of it worked.

I sat through countless workshops, read all the books, tried every technique. But most of what was out there was either too surface-level or so clinical it felt completely disconnected from the messy reality of being human.

The missing piece? Nobody was talking about the predictable structure of how trauma actually works in our minds.

See, most approaches treat symptoms. They tell you to manage stress, practice self-care, think positive thoughts. But they never address the actual architecture of how our minds create our experience.

That's like trying to fix a leaky roof by mopping the floor.

So I dove deep. I studied neuroscience, trauma recovery, the structure of thought itself. I became certified in cutting-edge frameworks that actually address root causes. But most importantly, I used these tools to completely transform my own life.

And then something incredible happened.

I started sharing what I'd learned - not just the theory, but the real, lived experience of what it takes to break patterns that felt unbreakable.

People started having breakthroughs in real time. Not weeks later, not after months of practice - right there in the room.

The Impact

in their words

 

Attendees would say things like:

  • "This is completely different from any trauma training I've ever attended"

  • "I learned more in this session than in years of other workshops"

  • "Finally, someone who explains HOW this actually works"

Word is spreading.
More and more, people are seeking speakers who can deliver not just inspiration, but transformation—and that’s the work I’m here to do.

Real Talk That Leaves a Mark

An experience where your audience discovers they are so much more than they've been conditioned to believe they are

This isn't your typical keynote where people feel good for a few hours then return to their old patterns.

It's the only speaking experience that addresses the actual structure of how we create our experience - the difference between our programmed identity and who we really are.

I don't just tell your audience what's possible. I show them exactly how their minds work, how trauma gets stuck, and most importantly, how to interrupt the patterns that keep them small.

Here's what makes this completely different:

✓ Interactive and engaging - No sitting passively while I talk AT them
✓ Questions welcomed throughout - Real learning happens in real time
✓ Science-backed AND accessible - Complex concepts made simple and relatable
✓ Nothing off-limits - We go into the stuff most people won't touch
✓ Immediate application - Tools they can use the moment they leave

Your audience will understand:

  • Why most approaches to change fail (and what actually works)

  • The predictable structure of how trauma shows up in daily life

  • How to interrupt survival patterns in real time

  • The difference between managing symptoms and creating real change

  • What becomes possible when we stop living from our programming

This works whether your people are dealing with:

  • Workplace burnout and stress

  • Personal trauma and anxiety

  • Leadership challenges

  • Team dynamics and communication

  • Organizational culture change

  • Or simply wanting to understand how to be more effective humans

For example: After my recent presentation to 75 mental health professionals, the feedback was off the charts. Comments like "Very different training on trauma," "Appreciated the new perspective," and "I will be more intentional about how I show up for people."

One person said I was "too out of the box thinking" - which honestly, I take as a huge compliment. If you want the same old approaches dressed differently, I'm not your person. But if you want to give your people a powerful, practical shift they’ll remember—and use—let’s talk.

What They’ll Learn and Apply Immediately

the Architecture of Human Experience

Understanding how we actually create our reality

Your people will finally understand why they do what they do - not just the psychology, but the actual mechanics of how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected.

This isn't theory. It's practical knowledge they can use immediately to change patterns that have felt unchangeable.

What they'll gain:

  • The real reason why willpower fails (and what to use instead)

  • How to recognize when they're operating from programming vs. authentic choice

  • The specific steps to interrupt survival patterns in real time

  • Why their nervous system does what it does and how to work with it

  • Tools for staying present and responsive instead of reactive

Breaking the Survival Loop

Practical strategies for getting out of trauma patterns

This is where we get into the nitty-gritty of how trauma actually works - and more importantly, how to interrupt it.

Your audience will learn to recognize their own patterns and gain specific techniques for creating different outcomes.

What they'll gain:

  • How to identify when they're in a survival loop (most people have no idea)

  • The body-led approach to nervous system regulation

  • Practical tools for staying grounded under pressure

  • How to turn triggers into information instead of reactions

  • Strategies for making decisions from clarity instead of fear

Living from Possibility Instead of Programming

What becomes available when we stop living small

The final piece is about stepping into who they really are - beyond the conditioning, beyond the survival patterns, beyond what they've been told is possible.

What they'll gain:

  • How to distinguish between their programmed identity and their authentic self

  • Tools for accessing their innate wisdom and intuition

  • Strategies for creating from possibility instead of reacting to circumstances

  • A completely different relationship with challenge and change

  • Practical next steps for continuing this work in their daily lives

And if your organization has a specific focus or challenge, I can create a signature keynote or custom offering designed specifically for your audience—while still bringing the proven frameworks and results I’m known for.

Book Stela for Your Next Event

Got questions?

  • It's interactive, engaging, and unlike anything your audience has experienced before.

    I teach the actual structure of how we create our experience, with practical tools they can use immediately.

    People are taking notes the entire time because they're learning something genuinely new.

  • If your people are curious and ready for real talk, absolutely. I customize every presentation while maintaining the core methodology.

    Whether they're leaders, spiritually curious, or anyone dealing with human challenges, the principles apply universally.

  • Most speakers either give you inspiration without installation, or theory without practical application. I show people exactly how their minds work and give them tools they can use immediately. Plus, I'm not afraid to go into the topics others avoid.

  • Perfect. Skeptics often become the biggest champions because this approach respects their intelligence. I don't ask anyone to "just believe" - I show them how it works and let them experience it for themselves.

  • Absolutely. Real learning happens in real time. I engage with questions as they come up because that's where the magic happens - when someone's genuine curiosity meets practical knowledge.

  • If you want the same old approaches that create the same old results, I'm definitely not your person. But if you're ready to give your people something that actually works, let's talk.
