Melissa Lewis & Upside Down Speaking-Spouse & Youth Programs

As long as she's there . . . put Melissa to work!

You brought Melissa in to do a presentation skills or Mini-Theatre program for your large conference, but while she's there, why not put her to work as a speaker in your spouse or youth program? Or perhaps you want to offer some fun or offbeat topics to balance out the practical skills-oriented sessions on your regular agenda. Either way, Melissa offers some fun, light-hearted programs that add variety to your conference.

I Am the Boss of ME!
Self-Management and Life Skills for Kids^©

Conference keynote, breakout or workshop

Kids may not be the boss of their bedtimes, homework or household chores, but they ARE the boss of their attitudes and how they respond to everyday challenges.

Through stories, music, laughter and lively audience participation, Melissa “Aunt Missy” Lewis presents this fun-filled, high-energy, one-woman live show that teaches kids ages 5-12 (and their siblings and grown-ups!) how to handle emotions, make good decisions, get along with others, develop self-confidence and bring out the best in any situation. Join Melissa and her loveable alter egos--feisty Granny Goose, very proper Sir Winston Montague Throckmorton III, and wacky scientist Mortimer Q. Eureka--for an inspiring adventure of fun and learning.

I Am the Boss of ME, Too!
Self-Management and Life Skills for Grown-Ups^©

Conference keynote, breakout or workshop

You thought all of the above applied only to kids? Think again! We grown-ups don't control the mortgage company, the office politics, the obnoxious neighbors or the meddling in-laws, but we DO control our attitudes and how we respond to everyday challenges. Although this version of I Am the Boss of ME doesn't feature a flying orange hippopotomus, it does feature innovative audience participation, vivid stories and practical strategies so you, too, can handle emotions, make good decisions, get along with others, develop self-confidence and bring out the best in any situation.

Intuition Develoment:
Tapping Into Your Inner Wisdom^©

Conference keynote, breakout or workshop

Have you ever . . .

   • . . . sensed that a certain decision was right (or wrong) with no logical reason why?

   • . . . noticed that you like certain people right away, while others give you “the creeps”?

   • . . . felt compelled to move, change jobs or pursue a new activity without knowing why?

   • . . . sensed what a distant loved one was experiencing without having any normal way of knowing?

If so, that was your intuition talking! Whether you call it a “gut instinct”, “inner knowing”, “vibes”, “divine guidance”, or something else, intuition is a natural human ability. It’s not a gift that some have and others don’t. It’s a skill that can be developed with attention, practice and a sense of fun. In this session you will learn to notice and strengthen your intuitive nudges which then gives you an excellent source of guidance and gives your life an exciting air of mystery and adventure. Through discussion, exercises and stories, this light-hearted program will help you get practical, everyday help from the intuitive wisdom that’s been inside you all along.
