CHOOSE TO RISE: Decisions that ignite momentum

Known for her journey singing the National Anthem in all 50 states—featured in national media and the documentary National Anthem Girl—Janine brings a perspective grounded in real-world action, not just theory.

This keynote helps audiences recognize where momentum is breaking down—and what to do next.

It challenges the “when/then” mindset that delays action, replacing it with a practical approach to making clear, confident decisions under pressure.

Through real-world examples and interactive moments, audiences shift from reactive thinking to intentional action—leaving with clarity, direction, and momentum they can apply immediately.
