Creative & inspiring keynotes on how to improvise in your everyday life
“The goal isn’t to keep chaos or change from happening—because it’s all unpredictable. The goal is to practice improvising through life, so you become flexible and courageous and can handle anything.” - Katie Goodman
Katie is an award-winning comedian, speaker, and author. Katie's work in comedy has amassed over 3 million online views.

Katie literally wrote the book on using improv comedy to improve your life (No, seriously, click here).
Her show “Broad Comedy” plays Off-Broadway. Her mix of her love of self-help and comedy lands her career somewhere in between Samantha Bee and Deepak Chopra. Her work has been celebrated by Arianna Huffington, Leslie Stahl, Time Out New York, and her Pilates teacher in Brooklyn who says she is “getting better.” Besides her own book, Katie's writing can be seen In O Magazine and The Huffington Post. Katie holds a degree in Philosophy from the University of Pennsylvania and was nominated for the MacArthur Genius Grant for her work in theater. She got beat out by the astrophysicist who discovered the multiphase liquid behavior of nuclei, but better luck next time.
