I have had the pleasure of having Paige Mathison at many of my Chic events, as an incredible speaker, with her insightful and transformative talks, connecting with our audience keeps everyone listening and leaning into her words. Paige has profound wisdom and authenticity that truly set her apart.
Paige has covered a range of topics, from navigating anxiety to uncovering the keys to finding joy in our daily lives at the Chic Retreat. Her sessions have been nothing short of inspiring, providing our attendees with practical tools to enhance their mental well-being. The depth of her knowledge and her compassionate approach create a safe space for open conversations about mental health.
One of Paige's standout sessions was on laughter therapy, where she seamlessly blended humor with therapeutic insights at the Chic Summer Series. The room was filled with infectious laughter, creating an atmosphere of joy and camaraderie that lingered long after the event concluded.
Paige has become a cherished part of our Chic events, and I wholeheartedly recommend Paige for any event seeking a speaker who can not only captivate an audience but also inspire positive change.

The Chic Experience
Having Paige Mathison as a guest speaker for my psych nursing students was an invaluable experience that went beyond our highest expectations. Paige's approach to discussing trauma-informed practice, trauma themes, and therapeutic communication styles was both professional and profoundly engaging. Her ability to weave powerful storytelling with appropriate humor and deep compassion captivated our students from start to finish, making complex topics accessible and deeply impactful.
Paige's vast knowledge and willingness to share an abundance of resources were evident throughout her presentation. Her passion for the subject matter and genuine care for the audience's understanding shone through, leaving a lasting impression on everyone. So much so, that the demand for more of the insights and materials she offered continued well after her speaking engagement had concluded.
What made Paige stand out was not just her expertise but her remarkable ability to connect with the students on a personal level, fostering an environment of empathy and understanding that is crucial in the field of psych nursing. Her presentation was not only educational but also a moving experience that has enriched our students' learning journey.
It was truly an honor to have Paige share her knowledge and experiences with us. Her contribution has not only enhanced our curriculum but has also inspired our students to approach their future practice with a deeper awareness and sensitivity towards trauma-informed care. We are profoundly grateful for the positive impact she has made and look forward to the opportunity to welcome her back in the future.
