Hey there!

You scanned the bar—now meet the speaker behind the buzz.

I’m Tara Renze, and I’m so glad you’re here.

What I do on stage isn’t your average keynote. I don’t just motivate—I move people. I challenge audiences to who they came to be, ignite their emotional intelligence, and take purposeful action that actually sticks.

My approach is real, relatable, and rooted in results. I bring stories that feel familiar, ideas that shift mindsets, and energy that lingers long after the standing ovation.

Oh—and this bar? It’s a Kansas City original from Christopher Elbow Chocolatier. I always bring a few to the tech crews at my events as a thank you. Just a little way to say: your work matters. (And let’s be honest—great chocolate makes everything better.)

If you're looking for a keynote that rocks the room, creates unforgettable moments, and inspires real change—you’re in the right place.

This is more than a speech.

It’s an experience.

Experience.
