Your Event Deserves a
Voice That Moves People
20+ years of disability justice advocacy, lived experience, and community organizing. Certified hypnotist, master coach, and speaker who doesn't just inspire — she changes the room.
What Renee Speaks About
Every talk is rooted in lived experience, not just theory. Renee's work challenges, heals, and equips audiences to build more just, inclusive spaces.
Moving beyond "awareness" into structural change. Renee grounds audiences in the disability justice framework — cross-movement solidarity, intersectionality, and collective liberation over individual accommodation.
What does a truly inclusive organization look like — and how do you build one? Renee challenges teams to move from compliance checkboxes to cultures where disabled people actually belong and lead.
Leaders who understand trauma change how entire organizations function. Renee brings her coaching and hypnotherapy background to help leaders create safe, restorative environments for their teams.
Disabled people as experts of their own lives. Renee shares the philosophy and practice of self-directed advocacy — equipping individuals and organizations to center disabled voices in every decision.
ADA compliance is the floor, not the ceiling. Renee pushes organizations to ask: what would it look like if disabled people designed this from the start? Practical, human, and transformative.
Rooted in her work as a New York State care organizer, Renee speaks to the power of community as a survival strategy — and what it means to genuinely show up for one another in systems that weren't built for us.

Lived Experience Is the Credential That Matters Most
Renee Christian didn't arrive at disability justice from a textbook — she lived it. From institutionalization to independent living, from navigating systems designed to limit her to organizing New York State's care communities, Renee's entire body of work is rooted in what it actually takes to survive, thrive, and build power.
"I don't speak about disability justice — I speak from it. That's what changes rooms."
As a certified hypnotherapist and master coach, Renee brings tools that go beyond awareness to actual transformation — helping individuals and organizations shift the beliefs, habits, and structures that keep people out. She speaks nationally on disability justice, inclusive organizational culture, trauma-informed leadership, and the radical practice of self-determination.
Audiences don't just learn from Renee. They feel challenged, held, and genuinely seen — often for the first time in a professional space.
