“Jody did a fantastic job of helping our student athletes and their families understand that what some may consider a hinderance can become what allows us to be made stronger. ”
Connor Wentling
Overview
I help audiences respond with humor and practical wisdom to the moments when life goes off script.
I’m a keynote speaker who combines improvisational comedy and Stoic philosophy (yes, really) to deliver engaging, funny, and meaningful talks that help people navigate change with more confidence. Whether you're planning a corporate event, conference, or team retreat, I bring a fresh take on resilience, leadership, and connection.
Clients book me because I don’t just entertain—I equip. Your audience will laugh, reflect, and leave with practical tools they’ll actually remember and use. Plus, I make life easy for event planners: punctual, prepared, and always collaborative.

What to expect
Audiences see a speaker who’s engaging, quick on his feet, and genuinely funny—but who also brings real depth. I blend improvisational comedy, sharp storytelling, and timeless Stoic wisdom to create talks that are equal parts entertaining and practical. Whether I’m speaking to corporate teams, educators, or public sector professionals, I make the experience feel tailored, meaningful, and memorable.
Clients get a true partner in the process—someone who’s easy to work with, communicative, and committed to making their event a success. I show up early, stay flexible, and deliver a talk that hits the tone you’re looking for: energizing, thoughtful, and useful long after the applause.
