WHY KEYNOTE SPEAKER AND ACTOR JONATHAN SWENSON ENCOURAGES THE HEARTS OF EVERYDAY HEROES EACH TIME HE PRESENTS
I'M NOT YOUR TYPICAL KEYNOTE SPEAKER
I don’t give talks, I craft experiences. No lectures, but rather an emotional and intellectual journey and potentially life-changing experience. With a little spunk and a lot of heart, I aim for unusual engagement with lasting impressions that will grow emotional health, relational strength, and spiritual awareness.
I'M AVAILABLE IN-PERSON AND VIRTUALLY
I recognize that more and more events are taking place virtually, so whether it is an in-person or virtual event, I am able to present on-stage or online.
I'M HERE TO HELP
Feeling weary and worn-out in the workplace seems to be pretty universal these days.
Drawing from my professional acting experience and 25+ years as a parish pastor, I use a unique combination of drama and creative communication, leaving audience members with valuable take-aways:
*Affirmation & Encouragement
*Tools & Training for Balancing Service and Self Care
*Inspiration for a Renewed Sense of Joy and Purpose
The outcome is people who are better able to meet the core needs in themselves and their co-workers, and in their patients, clients, communities, and classrooms.
