Why audiences remember her

Most speakers bring either credentials or a story. Natalie brings both: a Forbes-featured exit she bootstrapped herself, a decade teaching at UC San Diego, and 13+ years coaching executives and teams, delivered with the honesty of someone whose signature talk is literally about her failures.

She's equally at home delivering a keynote, running an interactive workshop, or going deep in a podcast conversation, and tailors every appearance to your audience and format.

Real founder credibility: built it, sold it, lived the whole arc
Professor-level clarity: she teaches for a living
Practical frameworks your audience can use the same day
Formats: keynotes, workshops, panels, podcasts, media
