I have been advocating for disability rights for the last 15+ years, as well as living my life to the fullest. I've never let being in a wheelchair hinder me, or prevent me from doing the things I love. I've spoken at multiple events for schools, and universities about inclusion and accessibility. My main goal is to encourage others to push the barriers of everyday life, and to never stop fighting for what is right.

Dr. Hazel Denhart is the kind of speaker audiences remember — energetic, funny, and disarmingly profound, with a gift for making the deepest ideas about story feel suddenly, thrillingly within reach. Her seminars have been called shockingly effective, and they run on a current of humor that keeps a room leaning in from the first minute to the last. For more than thirty years she has taught storytellers across four continents — in universities, festivals, and writing circles from the United States and Europe to Central Asia and the Middle East. She has presented for several years at Willamette Writers conferences and regional chapters, and has spoken at dyslexia and sustainability conferences, bringing the same vivid, accessible depth to each. She is the creator of The Universal Grammar of Story®, a mythopoetic method that reveals the deep, archetypal architecture beneath every great story, drawing on Jungian depth psychology, Joseph Campbell's hero's journey, mythology, and perennial philosophy. An author, playwright, and academic researcher, Dr. Denhart brings scholarly depth without scholarly dryness — she makes complex theory land through vivid examples, dramatic moments from an unusual life, and the kind of practical insight an audience can use the moment they leave the room. She speaks to writers and authors, to universities and students, and to literary and arts organizations, offering keynotes, hands-on writing workshops, and university talks. Whether the audience is twenty MFA students or a festival hall, her aim is the same: to send people back to the page with new courage, new tools, and a renewed sense of why their stories matter. The question she hears most as a talk ends is the one every speaker hopes for: "When can you come back?"
