Shaul Danyiel Chaplain | Author | Speaker Shaul Danyiel is a Chaplain, Author, and speaker based in Lakeside, California, dedicated to helping people regain perspective when life feels heavy. Through faith-informed encouragement and practical mindset guidance, he supports individuals, families, and organizations as they navigate hardship, loss, uncertainty, and change with motivation, inspiration, and resilient hope. His work blends pastoral care with clear, actionable reflection so that audiences and clients can move from struggle to strength. He helps you identify what is weighing on you, find meaning in the middle of challenges, and build the inner stability to keep going. Whether you are facing a difficult season, leading a team through turbulence, or simply need renewed direction, Shaul is here to help you overcome with courage and purpose. A Speaker Shaped by High-Stakes Moments What sets Shaul apart is not just what he has studied, but where he has stood. He has delivered Holocaust Memorial addresses to packed auditoriums in Kuwait. He has spoken to over 100 soldiers preparing for riot control missions during a national crisis. He has conducted a Passover Seder in the home of the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq in Baghdad. He has counseled grieving families, guided soldiers through moral injury, and spoken to hundreds of ROTC cadets at Fort Knox. These are not resume lines. They are rooms where words had to matter. With more than 22 years of service as a Rabbi, 12 years as an Army Chaplain, and a decorated military career that began as an Airborne Infantry Sergeant in the 82nd Airborne Division, Shaul has spent decades on the front lines of human struggle, spiritually, emotionally, and literally. His deployments span Haiti, South Korea, Kuwait, Iraq, and Poland. Domestically, he has served during the Santa Barbara mudslides, the COVID-19 response, and civil unrest in Los Angeles. A Published Voice Across Multiple Disciplines The same depth Shaul brings to the stage, he brings to the page. As the founder of Lion’s Den Publications, LLC, he has authored five books that reflect the full range of his scholarship, faith, and professional experience. Biblical Names: The Prophetic Implications of Baby Boy Names invites readers into the ancient Hebrew roots of scripture, revealing how names carry prophetic meaning, destiny, and blessing. It is a resource embraced by parents, theologians, and students of language alike. Beneath the Depth of Redemption: Jonah’s Journey offers an original translation and exegesis of one of scripture’s most misunderstood stories, drawing on Shaul’s study of Hebrew, Aramaic, and ancient Semitic languages to bring Jonah’s journey to life in a way that speaks directly to anyone navigating their own season of running, drowning, and being restored. Biblical Battles and Military Strategies: Leadership Lessons from Timeless Principles of Strategy and Faith bridges the ancient battlefield and the modern boardroom, examining the military conflicts of the Tanakh through both Mission Command Analysis and Spiritual Analysis. This book was only possible from someone who has served both as a soldier and a chaplain. Figs Deeper Mysteries: Food and Creation takes readers deeper into the spiritual significance of the foods of Scripture, recovering ancient wisdom about nourishment, creation, and intentional living that our modern world desperately needs. This book reflects one of Shaul’s most distinctive speaking topics: the spiritual components of holistic healthcare. Long before modern wellness culture discovered the connection between what we eat and how we feel, Scripture was already speaking to it. Shaul brings that conversation to audiences who are hungry not just for better health, but for a deeper understanding of how body, spirit, and creation are woven together by design. Trump’s Taxes and Tariffs: No Need to Panic brings his years of federal auditing expertise to bear on one of the most discussed and misunderstood policy debates of our time, offering a clear, grounded, and accessible analysis of trade policy, tariffs, and what they actually mean for everyday Americans. Together, these five books reflect a single conviction: that clarity, whether spiritual, historical, strategic, or financial, is one of the most powerful gifts a communicator can offer. Financial Literacy, Accounting, and Life Planning Resilience is not only emotional. It is financial. Few speakers can address the full spectrum of what it means to rebuild a life, because most have never had to understand the numbers behind one. Shaul brings a rare and practical financial dimension to his work that sets his message apart from traditional motivational speaking. As a Senior Federal Auditor with the Defense Contract Audit Agency for over 14 years, he spent his career examining the financial integrity of government contracts, leading complex audits, managing risk assessments, and ensuring compliance with federal accounting standards. He also served as a Guest Instructor in Statistical Sampling for the Defense Contract Audit Institute, training the very auditors who protect the financial interests of the U.S. government. At the university level, Shaul taught Intermediate Accounting, Financial Accounting, and General Business at DeVry University and Keller Graduate School of Management, translating technical financial concepts into language that students and real people could actually use. As a licensed California Insurance Agent, he understands the role that financial protection plays in long-term stability and peace of mind. He speaks practically about the intersection of financial planning, personal responsibility, and resilience, because when life falls apart, financial unpreparedness often multiplies the pain. This background allows Shaul to address audiences not only with spiritual and emotional depth, but with grounded financial wisdom. Whether speaking to a congregation navigating economic hardship, a corporate team managing uncertainty, or a veteran transitioning back to civilian life, he speaks to the whole person, including their wallet. A Voice Shaped by Many Worlds As a multilingual communicator fluent in English, Hebrew, Arabic, Spanish, and German, Shaul translates complex ideas into clear, structured insight, whether the audience is a congregation, a boardroom, or a battalion. His speaking topics draw from all of these worlds: resilience under pressure, leading with integrity, finding purpose through loss, faith and mental wellness, financial resilience and life planning, the spiritual dimensions of holistic healthcare and biblical nutrition, the wisdom of ancient Scripture for modern living, and the courage it takes to rebuild. He does not speak from theory. He speaks from the mud, the grief, the deployments, the pulpit, the classroom, the audit room, the published page, and the long road back. If your audience needs someone who has truly lived what they teach and can communicate it with calm authority, compassion, and clarity, Shaul Danyiel would be honored to stand on your stage.

You know within thirty seconds whether a speaker is going to make you look good. So do your attendees. Farhan Zahid draws from real moments across psychiatric wards, billion-dollar boardrooms, and everything in between. Then he does something most speakers never do. He takes the room through live hypnosis, breathwork, and meditation, giving the audience the tools to change their state on demand. Farhan delivers sessions people walk out of feeling genuinely different, and talk about long after the event ends. Farhan brings rare dual credibility to the stage, with experience that includes serving as a Board Director, 16 years advising complex organizations at Deloitte, and serving as Global Head of Risk at a leading global investment firm. He understands pressure, responsibility, and high-stakes decision-making from the inside. He pairs that background with deep clinical training in medical and psychiatric nursing, clinical hypnotherapy, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming, making his work both rigorously grounded and impossible to forget. As the creator of the ALIGN™ and FOCUS Method™, Farhan delivers frameworks that stick because people have already felt them working before he gives them a name. ALIGN™ helps people build the kind of performance that holds up over years, not just sprints. FOCUS Method™ gives people access to their clearest thinking in the moments that matter most. Both frameworks are taught, practiced, and embodied in the room. People leave knowing exactly how to use them and feeling them already working. As Founder and CEO of KNKO, a concierge wellness firm based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Farhan works with founders, executives, and high-net-worth individuals who operate in environments where there is very little room for an off day. That proximity to real performance under real pressure is what makes his sessions different. He is not theorizing. He is bringing back tools from the rooms where these problems actually live, and putting them directly in the hands of your audience, so that they can use them whenever they need. He has delivered keynotes and workshops for Deloitte, Chevron, the Institute of Internal Auditors, ISACA, the Association of Healthcare Internal Auditors, and Generate Capital, and has been featured in Business Life Magazine and the International Business Journal. Organizations bring Farhan in when stress is breaking their best people and they truly need their leaders to show up sharp, steady, and fully present. The credentials make people curious. The live session makes them feel something they haven't felt in years. That's what keeps them talking about your event long after it ends. ⸻ Client Results “Farhan’s session gave our executive team frameworks we implemented immediately. Within one quarter, we saw a 40% reduction in stress-related leadership issues.” - Chief People Officer, Fortune 500 Healthcare Organization “What truly set Farhan apart was his ability to combine strategic thinking with powerful experiential tools. Attendees experienced the impact in real time and left with techniques they could immediately use to protect energy, reset their nervous system, and improve focus. We will absolutely be booking him again.” - Senior Manager & Event Organizer, Deloitte - IIA/ISACA San Francisco Conference, December 2025 ⸻ 20+ years speaking | San Francisco Bay Area | Available globally

Keynote Speaker | Creator of The Architecture of Adaptation™ | Founder
Oxnard, California
Cindy Costley's perspective wasn't shaped by theory alone—it was shaped by living it. For more than 34 years, Cindy lived in a body that often reacted severely to things that were simply part of everyday life. Food was dangerous. Environments made her sick. Even seemingly ordinary experiences could significantly affect how she felt and functioned. Over time, her world became smaller and smaller. For decades, she believed her body was broken. Eventually, her search for healing forced her to look deeper—and what she discovered changed not only how she understood her body, but how she understood human adaptation itself. Her body's responses weren't random. They made sense in the context of what it had experienced and what it had learned to anticipate. What had looked like dysfunction began to reveal something else: "adaptation." That discovery became the beginning of a much larger exploration. With a degree in dietetics and more than 20 years of experience working with the body, Cindy has explored conventional medicine, nutrition, functional and integrative approaches, energy work, trauma healing, nervous system regulation, and the complex relationship between our experiences and the ways we adapt to them. Over time, she began recognizing a principle that extended far beyond physical symptoms: "we don't simply adapt to what happens. We adapt to what our experiences teach us to anticipate." Those adaptations can influence far more than how we feel physically. They can continue shaping how we think, respond, communicate, relate, lead, perform, and navigate change long after the circumstances that created them have passed. Today, Cindy brings this perspective to audiences through The Architecture of Adaptation™, inviting people to reconsider responses we often label irrational, resistant, dysfunctional, or self-defeating and ask a different question: "What if this response makes sense when we understand what the person has adapted to?" Cindy is a keynote speaker, creator of The Architecture of Adaptation™, and host of The Underlying Answers podcast. Her work isn't about giving audiences another explanation for what's wrong. It's about offering a different place to begin—one that recognizes the intelligence behind how we adapt and opens new possibilities for how we understand ourselves, understand one another, and create change.
