For the past two years, I've been coaching speakers one-on-one and in quick workshops on how to use humor strategically in their presentations. And almost every single client has asked me the same question:
"Do you have a group program for this?"
Well, now I do.
Introducing the Humor Detector Cohort – a 6-week virtual program that teaches speakers and business professionals how to build a complete arsenal of strategic humor for their keynotes.
Here's what's been happening with my private clients:
Bill went from spending money on marketing with zero conversion to converting 10x what he invested in me. How? By building trust using comedy surrounding audience pain points.
Renee doubled her fees before she even walked on stage. How? Getting specific about her audience and killing it on the pitch call with strategic humor.
Jeff is commanding higher fees than he's ever had by opening hard with humor and connecting instantly with his audience.
But here's the thing… I can only work with so many people individually. And frankly, the group dynamic makes this training even more powerful. You get to practice with other speakers, learn from their experiences, and build confidence together.
Maybe this sounds familiar:
You walk into that boardroom or onto that stage, and you can feel it immediately - the audience checking their phones, that polite-but-distant energy, the sense that you have about 30 seconds before they mentally check out.
You know your content is solid. You're an expert. But there's this nagging feeling that something's missing. You watch other speakers command the room effortlessly with humor, and you think "How the hell do they make it look so easy?"
But then the fear kicks in: What if I try to be funny and it bombs? What if one bad joke kills my credibility? What if I'm just not naturally funny enough?
So you stick with the safe, serious approach. And watch as prospects politely listen... then hire the speaker who made them laugh.
Here's what I've discovered that most humor coaches don't understand...
Keynotes follow patterns. Just like the TV shows I've produced, they follow a structure. Patterns are my jam. I made my career out of taking structures and patterns of non-comedic material and adding humor to them, like the cooking show I helped create with Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg.
This is why my approach works - I'm not teaching you to be a comedian. I'm teaching you to strategically enhance what you already do well, the same way I enhanced cooking shows and talk shows with humor that served the content, not overshadowed it.
Here's the focus of the 6-week virtual cohort:
The 7 strategic pieces of humor that work in every keynote – These aren't random jokes. They're proven frameworks that connect you with any audience, establish your credibility, and set up your core content with wit and laughs.
Applying the humor detector mindset – There’s only so much I can do in a weekend workshop. I’m excited to share in greater detail how to notice, curate, and create humor from your everyday experiences, and start a habit that will improve your keynote every time you deliver it.
Safe delivery techniques that make bombing impossible – You'll never have to worry about a joke falling flat because I’ll cover the best ways to word and deliver them with grace.
How to read any room instantly and grab attention – These are the skills I learned presenting in high stakes situations like standup and pitches to busy & picky stars and network executives.
Look, you already have great content. You're an expert in your field.
But there's a difference between being heard and being remembered.
There’s a difference between being respected and being referred… Between being good and being booked solid.
That difference? Strategic humor.
I'm only accepting 20 members for this first cohort.
That's it. Small group, high impact, lots of personal attention.
And this program will never be less expensive than it is right now with the launch pricing of $499. There are no comparable humor programs … but other speaking programs generally cost double to triple this amount and don’t provide this specific outcome.
Join the waitlist to lock in this special price.
I will be launching this summer as soon as the wait list fills up.
Any questions? Just hit reply!

P.S. – Your audience decides in less than 60 seconds whether you're worth their attention or just another speaker they'll politely endure. Make those seconds count.
