Better communication improves every area of your life.
What are people talking about at water coolers? Relationships. What are moms complaining about at play dates and nights out? Relationships. What's great marketing really all about? Relationships. And great leaders are just really great at? You guessed it...Relationships.
And when we’re talking about relationships, we’re really talking about COMMUNICATION.
It is estimated that workers spend 2.5 hours per workday wrangling with relational drama. About 50% of marriages in our country end in divorce, and above and beyond that 25% report low relationship satisfaction. The numbers are dismal.
Miscommunications, outbursts, shut-downs, growing resentment, resistance, quiet quitting, and declining intimacy (both physical and emotional) are avoidable energy drains that get in the way of everything from emotional well-being to productivity and financial success.
I break down really big ideas into actionable, practical, relatable, and unforgettable strategies so that people can reclaim their energy to create relationships and lives they love.

The Secret To Lasting Happiness.
An unprecedented 75-year longitudinal study out of Harvard uncovered what creates a happy and purposeful life. What were the most important variables? Money? NOPE. Success? NOPE. What kind of car you drove? Nuh-uh. How much power you had? How much you had achieved? What kind of jeans you wore? What wrinkle cream you used? How much you weighed? No. No. No. No.
The study found STRONG RELATIONSHIPS to be far and away the strongest predictor of life satisfaction. There is a growing body of research that links social ties to longevity, lower stress levels, overall well-being, productivity, and success.
What Attendees Are Saying
"Mika is an amazing speaker! I learned so much from her talk. I was glued to her every word & felt like she was actually reading my mind. She also has an amazing way of connecting with you from the stage.”
“Mika, thank you again for the inspiring workshop last night! I truly did learn a lot about myself and I had so many takeaways from it all. You are a great presenter - very engaging and thought-provoking! Your revelations about relationships and communication would be amazing to share with my organization.”
“Mika has spoken to our group for the last 3 years and each year was on a completely different topic. She has the ability to eloquently answer any question from the audience… I’m not sure how she does it! Last year she was our most requested speaker - every person in our 50+ group listed her as someone to have back.”
