From the Stage, I Invite Women To, Come Thirsty, Encounter Jesus & Leave Changed.
Come Thirsty. Leave Changed.
MY Speaking MESSAGE
I know what it's like to soften your faith to fit professional norms—to believe success required it.
My talks remind women they can lead whole—faith and calling, no apologies, no compromise.
THE 3-Steps PATHWAY :
☑️Come Thirsty
Stop pretending. Show up as you are.
☑️Encounter Jesus
Not routine. Real conversation.
☑️Leave Changed
From fragmented to whole.
because the Woman at the Well isn't just Scripture. It's every woman's story.

AUDIENCE TRANSFORMATION
WHAT Event Planners CAN Expect
More than a talk—an atmosphere of encounter where women can Reflect, Reconnect, and Leave Changed.
I BRING:
A message rooted in Scripture and Lived Experience
Warm, Relatable storytelling that creates space for encounter
An Invitation—not a lecture
MY MISSION
To walk with women from fragmented to whole--where faith and calling integrate, compromise isn't even on the table, and you no longer split yourself into two.
MY GOAL
That every woman leave saying, "I came thirsty. I left changed." Not because they heard something new—but because they encountered Jesus who's been waiting at The Well all along.

Everything you need to know about working with Dr. Mavis
What topics do you speak on?
I invite high-performing Catholic women to encounter Jesus at the Well—because the real issue isn't just burnout, exhaustion, or feeling invisible. It's spiritual thirst.
My three core talks:
1. "I Go to Mass. I Pray. I Do All the 'Things.' So Why Do I Still Feel Distant from God?"
For women who are spiritually dry despite doing "all the things".
2. "From Fragmented to Whole: How to Stop Splitting Yourself—and Lead With Your Faith Fully Integrated"
For Catholic professionals tired of softening, managing or hiding their faith in certain spaces.
3. "Who Am I Beyond What I Do? Reclaiming Your Identity in the Second Half of Life"
For midlife women questioning their worth and purpose.

I'm committed to making impactful content accessible. Complete the inquiry form and let's discuss what works for your event.
Do you offer virtual speaking?
Yes. I speak both in-person and virtually. Virtual events allow me to reach audiences nationwide without travel costs, making it easier for parishes and organizations with limited budgets to access meaningful content.
Can you customize your talks?
Yes—every talk is tailored. I don't believe in "one-size-fits-all" content. Before your event, I'll work with you to understand:
- Your audience's pain points and needs
- Your event goals and desired outcomes
- Any specific themes or focus areas
You'll get a talk designed specifically for your people—not a canned presentation.
What do attendees say about your speaking?
Here's what I hear most often:
- "I felt seen and understood."
- "She made theology practical and accessible."
- "I finally feel permission to stop hiding my faith."
- "This was the permission slip I didn't know I needed."
- "She challenged me without making me feel judged."
My goal isn't just to inspire—it's to equip women with frameworks and tools they can use immediately. You'll leave with clarity, not just motivation.
