SELF-LEADERSHIP keynote SPEAKER & poet. IMANI NIC
GIVE YOUR leaders A MAP THEY’ll SHARE WITH THE ONES that matter.
Your attendees leave with more than insight and inspiration. They leave with a physical map and shared language for their teams, partners, and families. Deepening their connection to themselves, others, and the work they are here to bring to world.
Imani Nic is a 4x founder, self-leadership speaker, and performance poet. Drawing on more than 1,000 private subconscious sessions with entrepreneurs, she created The Map of Internal Terrain to help leaders recognize how they meet the challenges of building. Her talks and workshops reveal emotion as one of the most underused levers in business, showing how working with them can open up new opportunities for sustainable growth, greater impact, and increased joy.
IMANI’S SIGNATURE KEYNOTE
What’s Under that?
How founders identify the hidden internal patterns shaping their hardest business problems.
A leadership problem rarely arrives alone. A decision, a team issue, and pressure about growth can compound until everything feels like one overwhelming problem. Drawing on patterns from more than 1,000 sessions with entrepreneurs and her work in The Edit, Imani teaches a three-part process: separate and distill one problem, precisely name what it brings up, and explore what that emotional response may be protecting or making possible.
Leaders leave knowing how to work with the problem within themselves before trying to solve it outside themselves. When their relationship to the problem changes, new choices—and sometimes unexpected solutions—become possible.
IMANI’S SIGNATURE INTERACTIVE WORKSHOP
locate yourself and move.
A founder’s field guide to navigating doubt, momentum, capacity, and what comes next.
Founders know their numbers, their plans, and their bottlenecks. But can they tell where they are in the internal terrain of building? On Imani’s Map of Internal Terrain, an idea can begin at Inspiration Islands, get buried in Doubt Dunes, circle in Loop Lagoon, or run aground in Bottleneck Bay. Built from patterns across more than 1,000 sessions with entrepreneurs, the Map gives those invisible experiences vivid landmarks—and makes them easier to recognize and navigate.
In this interactive workshop, participants explore the Map, locate themselves in relation to a current goal or challenge, and chart a deliberate next move. They leave with a new way to read what’s happening inside the work—and a clearer route toward where they want to go next.
On StageImani Nic brings leaders back into contact with the part of themselves their businesses cannot outgrow. Rooted in a life lived across cultures, countries, and socioeconomic lines, she combines the force of a poet with the precision of a subconscious-performance specialist—moving a room beneath the noise of strategy and into the internal terrain where courage, capacity, relationships, and consequential decisions are actually shaped. The result is an experience that makes leaders feel more connected to themselves, to one another, and to the work they are here to build.
