KEYNOTES
Five Dimensions of Balance
This keynote is for parents and professionals who want to excel at work without sacrificing the rest of their lives. Drawing from the book 1% Dad, Dr. Michael Johnson breaks down the five dimensions of balance: fitness, family, finance, focus, and fulfillment. With practical strategies and real-world examples, this talk shows how to build structure, momentum, and intentionality across every area of life. Whether you are just beginning your parenting journey or balancing the demands of career and family, this keynote provides a clear framework for showing up with energy, clarity, and purpose. Attendees will leave with renewed confidence and an actionable plan to operate at their highest level in every dimension of life.
Existential AI Dread
While politicians, executives and investors tout the rise of AI and its transformational impact, everyone else is stuck asking the question: “if AI takes all of the jobs, what are we going to do?” The truth is that AI is going to have a profound impact on careers, parenting and society as a whole but how does the individual adapt? This talk is focused on that question and providing actionable steps for the individual across all of the different dimensions of their life.
The Great Illusion: Why everything feels broken and what to do about it
This keynote is designed for younger audiences ages 14 to 30 and is one Dr. Johnson frequently delivers at universities, high schools, and young professional groups. It speaks directly to young people who sense that something is off in society as they are told the economy and world have never been better, yet find that they cannot afford the things previous generations obtained with ease. Dr. Johnson breaks down the economic pressures, cultural shifts, and structural barriers that make life feel harder today. He then provides a clear roadmap for how young people can stay ahead of these challenges, create real opportunity, and set themselves up for long-term success in a world that is much more challenging than the one their parents grew up in.
