Portrait of Jillian Lorenz
Meet Jillian

A life spent becoming.

From mechanical engineer to national fitness founder, from building and selling The Barre Code to investing in what comes next, Jillian has followed one throughline: helping people recognize and realize their potential.

Her perspective bridges business, human behavior, movement, mindset and the courage to change. Today she brings those lessons to stages, leaders and the next generation of entrepreneurs.

The outer work starts within.
Signature experiences

Ideas that move people.

Part story. Part science of being human. Entirely an invitation to see what's possible.

01 / KEYNOTE

Everything to Gain,
Nothing to Lose

Purpose, reinvention, and the courage to change.

What happens when the identity that helped you succeed starts limiting what you can become? Through stories of entrepreneurship, motherhood, and reinvention, Jillian explores the space between seeing a possibility and feeling ready to live it. Guided reflection and future-self visualization help audiences turn a new direction into an everyday choice.

Ideal for women’s leadership, founder events, career transitions, university audiences
02 / KEYNOTE

The Energy
You Bring

Presence, human connection, and leading through change.

Your intention, attention, and response shape how people experience your leadership. Drawing on her years leading rooms and building a company, Jillian helps audiences notice how pressure and change show up in their bodies, communication, and decisions. A short grounding exercise lets the audience feel presence instead of just hearing about it.

Ideal for corporate leadership, team gatherings, founder events, client-facing teams

Each signature experience can be tailored to your audience. Ask about solo and collaborative formats, executive sessions, and retreats.

A guiding belief

Change begins the moment we see ourselves differently.

Your identity is not a fixed destination. It's something you get to consciously create.
