October 14 I 11 am to 12 pm I Virtual<\/h3>\n

Most pitches don’t fail because the idea is bad. They fail because the message never lands.<\/p>\n

Retired Air Force Colonel, storyteller, and Catalytic Comedian Mo Barrett<\/strong> spent nearly 30 years mastering high-stakes communication. Now she brings that hard-won formula to this workshop, so you can walk into any room, any conversation, and actually be heard.<\/p>\n

What you’ll learn:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. The spine (for any message): A simple framework for clarity that works across pitches, proposals, and high-stakes conversations — so your message is never lost in translation.<\/p>\n

2. The story (the only delivery vehicle that works): How to find and use the single moment that makes your message memorable, credible, and impossible to ignore.<\/p>\n

3. The body (what you say before you speak): Virtual presence, vocal tools, and the breath reset \u2014 because your body is already communicating before you open your mouth.<\/p>\n

4. The close (what decision-makers actually remember): Clarity. Credibility. Confidence. The three things that determine whether your pitch moves people to yes.<\/p>\n

Mo Barrett is a Catalytic Comedian, storyteller and Co-founder of the Full StopTM Movement, on a mission to prove that humor isn’t a party trick. It’s a high-performance tool.<\/p>\n

After nearly 30 years in uniform, Mo retired as an Air Force Colonel who mastered the art of finding humor in unexpected places – combat, cockpits and the occasional ridiculous situation that definitely won’t make it into the official after-action report. Now she brings that same energy to stages across the world. Her blend of relatable storytelling, contagious energy and perfectly-timed jokes forms a trifecta that helps audiences laugh, learn and think (in that order). But here’s the thing: Mo isn’t just entertaining you. She’s waking you up.<\/p>\n

Most leaders don’t realize they’re on autopilot until they’re already past the exit ramp. Mo’s gift is uncovering meaning in the mundane – transforming everyday moments into the kind of Full Stops that create genuine connection and actually change behavior. Humor breaks patterns, sharpens decisions and forges the kind of connection that makes people lean in, laugh out loud and leave with both eyes open<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
