CLARITY creates the speed EVERY TRANSFORMATION depends on to ACCELERATE
the ACCELERATE DIFFERENCE
On stage, Julianna delivers talks that are as practical as they are memorable. Audiences don’t just walk away inspired—they leave with frameworks they can actually use.
But here’s what really makes her different: Julianna doesn’t hand people tools and walk away. She makes them feel smarter, more confident, and fully capable of putting those tools into action. Her colleagues joke that her secret weapon is a perfectly timed analogy—something that takes a complicated process and makes you say, “Wait, that’s it?”
The real magic is this: Julianna reminds leaders and teams that they already have what they need inside them. They just need the clarity and confidence to unlock it. The most common reaction after hearing her speak? “It’s really that simple.”
Her promise is simple: after hearing Julianna, you won’t just understand the path forward—you’ll feel ready to accelerate on it. And you might even laugh along the way.

SIGNATURE SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
Empathy in the Age of Automation: Leading Humans Through Change
Technology is moving faster than people can adapt — and that tension is where fear, resistance, and burnout thrive. Gallup recently reported that nearly 70% of change initiatives fail because organizations underestimate the human side of transformation.
The instinct is often to double down on process or speed, but that only widens the gap. The real solution is empathy: listening, understanding, and guiding people at the pace they can adapt.
In this keynote, Julianna blends research, change frameworks, and real-world stories to show why empathy is the missing metric in digital transformation. She equips leaders with practical tools to reduce resistance, build resilience, and accelerate adoption — not by pushing harder, but by leading more humanly.
Key Takeaways:
Reframe empathy as a critical leadership skill in digital transformation.
Learn how to meet people where they are in change.
Discover tools to reduce resistance and increase adoption.
Understand the emotions driving stakeholders — and how to respond.
Leave with a framework to lead humans, not just processes, through automation.
Humans Still Win: Thriving in a World of AI
Headlines keep warning us that AI is coming for our jobs, our culture, even our identity. No wonder so many people feel anxious and uncertain about the future.
But the truth is far less threatening — and far more empowering. Studies from MIT and Deloitte show that while AI excels at speed and scale, it consistently fails at creativity, empathy, and moral reasoning. In other words: the qualities that make us human are still our strongest advantage.
In this keynote, Julianna reframes the conversation around AI. She shows audiences how to treat AI as a co-pilot, not a competitor, and how to draw the line between what machines can do — and what they shouldn’t. Through stories, strategies, and humor, she makes the future of work less scary and more human.
Key Takeaways:
Replace fear of AI with clarity and confidence.
Learn what makes humans irreplaceable in an automated world.
Understand how to use AI as a co-pilot, not a competitor.
Identify where boundaries matter — what AI shouldn’t replace.
Leave empowered, knowing that when we lean into our humanity, humans still win.
Accelerating Humans: Unlocking the Extraordinary in Everyday People
We often look at people who seem unstoppable — the ones who thrive in their careers, relationships, and communities — and wonder if they were just born different. The truth? They weren’t.
Research from Harvard Business Review shows that adaptability, curiosity, and emotional intelligence consistently outperform raw talent when it comes to long-term success. That means exceptionalism isn’t reserved for the lucky few — it’s built through daily habits and mindset shifts.
Julianna shares how she once believed “unicorn” people were rare and untouchable, only to realize that the very qualities that make someone exceptional are available to all of us. Through storytelling and practical lessons, she reveals a blueprint for transforming from ordinary to extraordinary — without needing to be the loudest in the room.
In this keynote, audiences will learn how to unlock their own potential, accelerate their growth, and become the kind of person who thrives in every area of life.
Key Takeaways:
Understand why exceptionalism isn’t born — it’s built.
Discover the core qualities that make people thrive in work and life.
Learn practical habits to accelerate personal growth.
See how anyone can go from ordinary to extraordinary.
Leave inspired to become your most unstoppable self.
