A Little Bit of Magic, A Whole Lot of Presence
Your audience doesn't need more information. They need an experience that awakens their aliveness.
Nolan creates keynotes that don't just inspire—they transform how people show up in their leadership, their work, and their lives.
SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE REQUIRES REVOLUTIONARY THINKING
Your team's burnout isn't a time management problem
​
This isn't about better work-life balance or another wellness initiative. You have a systemic presence crisis rooted in patterns that reward depletion and punish rest.
If you want sustainable high performance and authentic leadership that lasts, you need to fundamentally shift how your organization relates to achievement, pressure, and aliveness.
Instead of optimizing for more output at the cost of your people's wellbeing, it's time to optimize your aliveness—discovering what becomes possible when presence fuels performance instead of depleting it.
"Nolan's keynote was rated the highest of our entire conference. His blend of science, practical tools, and yes—actual magic—created an experience our attendees are still talking about months later."
-Sarah Jennings | Conference Director, Future of Work Summit

FROM CRISIS TO CALLING
​
Nolan's heart stopped at 34 during a workout. Doctors called it a miracle he survived. But surviving wasn't enough—he needed to understand why high-performers push until they break.
That question led him deep into breathwork, somatic practices, and performance psychology. Together with his wife, Dr. Amanda Kim, PsyD, they discovered something revolutionary: True performance isn't about pushing harder. It's about coming fully alive.
Today, Nolan serves organizations from Fortune 500 companies to elite athletic programs—helping leaders reclaim their aliveness without sacrificing their edge.
His mission: Challenge the myth that success requires suffering. Show what's possible when you optimize for aliveness instead.
