The psychology beneath what keeps repeating.
I help audiences understand the patterns they keep repeating, what those cycles are quietly protecting, and what lasting change requires.
I speak about the psychological forces beneath ambition, leadership, faith, and the ways people relate and change. My work explores why capable people can see a cycle clearly and still struggle to interrupt it — and why success can become the very structure that keeps them in place.

Core themes
Each engagement is shaped around the audience, the purpose of the event, and the conversation the room is ready to have.
The Cost of Capacity
What happens when the ability to carry, solve, endure, and keep moving becomes part of a person's identity — and begins shaping how they lead, relate, and change?
What Must End First
What has to be named, released, or rebuilt before a different way of living, leading, or relating can hold?
Custom engagements can also be developed around relationships, identity, ambition, and what lasting change actually asks of people.
Panels, podcasts, and media
Available for panels, podcasts, festivals, media commentary, and live conversations that move beyond surface answers.
Dr. Jumie brings psychological depth, cultural clarity, and practical language to conversations including:
Healed but Stuck
Successful and Lonely
Faithful and Exhausted
Present but Unreachable
Topics can be shaped around the platform, audience, and larger conversation.
