Founder & CEO | Wealth Strategist | Hedge Fund Founder | Nonprofit Development Educator
San Diego, California
Dr. Patience Dean is an entrepreneur, author, wealth strategist, and Founder of Generals Equipped Private Wealth Club. Known as the "Arbitrage Queen" and "The Passive Income Consultant," she helps entrepreneurs, investors, professionals, and purpose-driven leaders move beyond earned-income dependency to build passive income, asset ownership, financial independence, and lasting wealth infrastructure. But her understanding of wealth was not developed through financial success alone. It was forged through adversity. **After experiencing homelessness three times and losing everything eleven times, Dr. Dean learned firsthand that making money and building lasting wealth are two very different things.** Each season of rebuilding challenged her to rethink financial security, ownership, and what it truly means to create something that lasts. Rather than allowing those experiences to define her future, she transformed them into the foundation of her life's work: teaching others how to move beyond simply earning income toward building assets, infrastructure, and wealth systems designed for perpetuity. Having achieved early retirement in her thirties, Dr. Dean brings a unique perspective to financial independence. She teaches that **retirement and legacy are not the same goal.** Retirement is about creating the financial freedom to live life on your own terms. Legacy is about building what continues after you. Through Generals Equipped Private Wealth Club, she educates entrepreneurs and professionals on multiple pathways to wealth, including business ownership, real estate, trusts, mortgage notes, intellectual property, royalties, and alternative investment strategies. Her work also extends into nonprofit development, technology, and Kingdom impact. Through initiatives such as The Nonprofit Launch Weekend™, she helps purpose-driven founders transform their visions into structured organizations with the infrastructure needed to pursue sustainable, long-term impact. As a speaker, Dr. Dean combines personal testimony, practical financial education, entrepreneurial experience, and strategic insight to challenge audiences to think differently about money, ownership, adversity, and the future they are building. Her message is rooted in a lesson she learned through her own journey: **It's not just about how much money you make. It's about what you build, what you own, and what can continue long after you.** **Build Income. Own Assets. Create Infrastructure. Expand Your Impact. Build for Perpetuity.**

Shannon D. Smith is an Expertise Translation Strategist and facilitator who helps organizations turn critical know-how into shared language, decision tools, and repeatable ways of working that do not depend on any one person being in the room. Her work begins where most knowledge management efforts stall. Before expertise can be documented, managed, transferred, or made AI-ready, someone has to slow the expert down long enough to surface what they actually know and decode the judgment inside it. Research on expert knowledge elicitation suggests that experts often omit a significant portion of what they do when asked to describe their own process, which is why telling a top performer to “just write it down” rarely works. Shannon names the gap plainly: that is not a documentation problem. It is a translation problem. She brings dual graduate level training to the work, with an M.S. in Instructional Design and Technology and an M.S. in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, and she is a Certified Professional in Talent Development. Her approach sits at the intersection of instructional design, organizational psychology, facilitation, and knowledge management. On stage and on the page, Shannon helps leaders understand why their best people are often their worst explainers and what it costs when knowledge stays trapped. She shows organizations how to translate expertise into something a team, system, training experience, or AI initiative can actually use.

Keynote Speaker | #1 Bestselling Author | Creator of the Human Perspective Method™ | Physiotherapist & Kinesiologist
Denver, Colorado
Julie Renae Smith, MPT, is a speaker, #1 bestselling author, coach, physiotherapist and kinesiologist who helps people recognize the hidden patterns shaping how they interpret, react, communicate, lead, and perform. For more than 25 years, Julie has worked at the intersection of the body, behavior, change, and human performance. That work led to the development of the Human Perspective Method™—an approach for recognizing where our attention naturally lands, understanding the patterns that creates, and expanding the possibilities available when we can see more of what's actually happening. Because we don't respond only to what happens. We respond to what we notice, what we make it mean, and the story we build from there. Julie brings that work into organizations through engaging, practical experiences that reveal the invisible patterns behind workplace stress, communication, decision-making, leadership, burnout, and change. Her sessions blend science, storytelling, humor, movement, and practical application. Audiences don't simply leave knowing more—they begin noticing differently. And that's where choice becomes possible. Because you can't interrupt what you haven't noticed. When people can recognize a pattern, they can interrupt it. Julie's signature keynotes—including The Invisible Workday™ and Pain Bending™—combine neuroscience, movement, storytelling, humor, and immediately usable tools that help people reduce burnout, strengthen communication, navigate change, improve leadership, and perform at their best. Whether speaking to corporate teams, healthcare professionals, associations, or executive leaders, Julie's mission is simple: Help people see more so they can choose better.
