Don’t Just Book a Speaker: Create an Experience.
What does your audience need to hear, feel, and take away from your event?
The right speaker creates a moment of awareness that sparks conversation, shifts perspective, and inspires people to take action.
That’s what I bring to every Shine Awareness experience.
Engaging. Relevant. Human.
As an awareness speaker, nurse educator, and social-emotional intelligence coach, I create inspiring, interactive presentations and workshops designed around the real challenges facing your audience.
From resilience and emotional self-care to empathy, communication, self-awareness, leadership, and meaningful workplace relationships, I bring meaningful topics to life in ways that connect personally and professionally.
Whether you’re planning a national conference, professional development event, employee development day, leadership program, team meeting, or lunch & learn, I’ll partner with you to create a program that supports your goals and leaves your audience with something meaningful to carry forward.

Meet Elizabeth Bockheim
Speaker, Nurse Educator & SEI Coach. Florida Board of Nursing CE provider
Powered by Shine Awareness, I’m an influential awareness speaker who knows how to move an audience without talking at them. I blend meaningful, facilitated conversation with just the right dose of sage-on-the-stage inspiration to spark
reflection, connection, and lasting awareness.
After surviving a near-fatal scuba diving accident, I discovered a powerful truth: life is too meaningful to keep your best insights to yourself. That experience ignited my passion to share the life-changing power of awareness—not only with my community, but with audiences everywhere.
I don’t just deliver a message. I create moments that make people think, feel, and see themselves and the world around them differently.

My purpose is simple: help people shine with awareness so they and the organizations they’re part of can thrive.
I help employees, faculty, and organizations strengthen the human skills that transform workplaces: adaptability and resilience, collaboration and communication, and empathy; the heart of every meaningful relationship.
Because when people feel seen, valued, and connected, they don’t just come to work, they want to be there.
