The world made us boring

Every event is different, so let's talk! Email me at boop@meglewis.com with your dates, audience size, and budget and I'll tell you exactly what's possible. I do save a few spots each year for smaller events and communities I love, so ask!

Mostly no, but kind of yes! My talk is pre-written, well-planned, and intentionally crafted to be well-received and applicable to everyone in the room. However, as an improviser and performer I love to add little bits throughout my talk that address the specific event, audience, and the energy in the room. I always read the room and love learning about your event and audience so I don’t say something that won’t land.

My talk is often selected as the counterweight to a lineup that is AI-heavy. Audience members are fatigued, scared, and excited all at once. My talk is designed to remind them of their beautiful human ability to create things for the world that no one else can. So they find confidence, autonomy, and control over a future that desperately needs them. While I don’t say “AI” once during my keynote, I also don’t go on an anti-AI rant. This isn’t about that!

I’m also selected as the first or last speaker because my vulnerability and humanity creates a high-energy feeling in the crowd that a technical talk cannot. I’m an expert in creating intimacy and closeness. By the end of my talk, attendees will feel cracked open, ready to have fun, and excited to meet each other.

Please do! It's my favorite way to work. The keynote cracks everyone's hearts open and makes them excited for their future. The workshop is where they put it into action! This way you can fill 2 slots with one person. I know how time saving (and budget-saving) that can be for you!

Of course! My keynote and workshop translates beautifully to in-person, virtual, and hybrid spaces. I tenderly design my experiences to consider all.

Yes! A work-in-progress version is right up there on this page. A recording of the finished fall 2026 keynote is coming soon.

Yes! The talk isn't about creativity as a job, it's about being a human with a brain. I've done this for engineers, finance folks, marketing conferences, HR professionals, and salespeople. They're often the rooms that need it most (and the ones that surprise themselves the most too).

Happy to share! I have an outline of everything I say in the talk, including the more emotional parts about my dad, so you know exactly what's coming. Email me and I'll send it over so you can make sure my message and your event are aligned.

Absolutely! I love the camera (and the camera loves me). And it often gives me even more to work with!

Anywhere! I started this work as an excuse to travel and then the audiences, people, and connections were what made me fall in love. I am based in Philadelphia but have spoken at events all over the world. Send me to your tiny town, remote village, or New York is fine…again!

As early as you can! Conference season dates (April-May and September-October) go fast, but I've also pulled off beautiful things on short notice! If your event is soon, reach out anyway and we'll see what's possible.
