Invite Kelvin to Speak

Bring Formed by Hope to your team. Through live pottery, I make resilience visible and give leaders and employees a shared language for working through pressure, supporting one another, and shaping what comes next. We discuss your audience and event goals together. Your organization chooses the focus and decides how, or whether, to apply the ideas afterward.

What It Looks Like to Invite Me

Every event is different, so I build the talk around your audience: corporate offsite, conference keynote, university program, whatever the room needs. I handle my own travel and setup logistics, including what I need for the pottery wheel and any accessibility accommodations, so your team can focus on your people instead of managing me. If your venue can provide power and a table, I can work almost anywhere.

A Message Shaped for Your Audience

I shape a piece of pottery while I share what has shaped my life. Together, we choose the message that fits your room and the conversation you want people to carry forward.

  • Corporate teams: Formed by Hope, adapting to change, working through pressure, and supporting one another
  • Technology audiences: accessibility, lived experience, and tools that help more people participate
  • Nonprofits: my lived experience with suicidal despair, addiction, connection, and hope
  • Churches and Christian events: The Good Potter, restoration, and hope in Jesus

The Finished Piece

Every talk ends with a finished piece: something I made live while I spoke. Hosts are welcome to keep it, display it, or have it locally glazed and fired. It's a physical reminder of what the whole talk was about: something took shape because someone stayed with the process.
