Speaking
Bring the conversation to your community.
Rachel speaks at the intersection of investing, generosity, and seeing stewardship in the right context. Her talks are grounded in twenty years of practice, not theory.
The right conversation for the right room.
Not every talk is the same. Rachel brings a different entry point depending on who's in the room — but the same conviction runs through all of them: that faith and finance are not separate conversations.
What Rachel brings to the room.
Rachel brings a different entry point depending on who's in the room — but the same convictions runs through all of them: an invitation to align capital with calling, and to integrate Head + Heart. Also available via Zoom / virtual format.
The 4 Garden Styles
Borrowing the story of Gran, Roger, and Willow to demonstrate a real life framework. The book isn't just a novel — it's a map. This talk uses the book's central metaphor to help audiences see where their capital is flowing, the posture with which they hold it, where it's drifted from their vision, and what it might look like to tend it more intentionally.
Head + Heart: A Framework for Faith-Driven Stewardship
Twenty years of integrating Christian values into financial practice, distilled into one talk. Rachel walks through the Head and Heart framework — rigorous financial planning held inside a larger question about meaning, legacy, and calling. Practical, credentialed, and deeply grounded in both scripture and market reality.
7 Areas of Clarity for Cultivation
The hardest stewardship question isn't "how much should I invest versus give?" It's "what am I responsible for?" This talk names the quiet drift that happens when we delegate our financial decisions without integrating our values — and invites audiences into a more honest, more faithful and relationally wise posture with what they've been given.
The Inheritor's Blueprint: From Disorientation to Authorship
A facilitated half-day workshop for groups ready to move from reflection to action. Participants leave with a written Capital Philosophy Statement, a set of Garden Goals (impact priorities), and a defined next step with their advisor.
