Motivation Fades, Transformation Stays


Justine Carino, LMHC, the Balanced Boss, Speaking Event for Women's Group Focused

Your audience doesn’t need another pep talk.

They need insight that changes how they work, lead, and live.

I’m Justine Carino—a licensed therapist, coach, and podcast host—and I speak to high-achieving women who look successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside.

My talks aren’t about hype or quick inspiration.
They’re about clarity, self-awareness, and practical tools that create lasting change—at work and at home.

If your audience is driven, capable, and quietly exhausted, they don’t need another pep talk.
They need something that finally lands.

This is not a pep talk.

  • It won’t ask your audience to “push harder”

  • It won’t shame them for feeling overwhelmed

  • And it won’t disappear once the applause fades

This is transformation.

  • Real insight into stress, anxiety, and perfectionism

  • Tools people actually remember—and use

  • A shift in how high-achievers show up at work and at home

Motivation fades, but insight reshapes behavior long after the event ends.

Reasons to Have Justine to Speak at Your Event

1. She speaks to high-achievers without shaming them

Justine understands the inner world of ambitious women because she works with them every day. Her talks replace “push harder” messaging with insight that actually helps people breathe—and grow.

2. This isn’t theory—it’s grounded in real clinical work

Every talk is informed by years of experience as a licensed therapist. The tools she shares aren’t trends; they’re strategies people can use in real moments of stress, anxiety, and overwhelm.

3. Audiences feel seen, not talked at

One of the most common things people say after a talk is, “It felt like you were speaking directly to me.” That sense of connection is what makes the message land—and stick.

4. She balances depth with warmth and humor

Justine brings serious insight without heaviness. Her style is thoughtful, relatable, and human—creating space for reflection without making the room feel heavy or clinical.

5. Every talk is tailored

No two audiences are the same. Justine customizes each talk to meet the moment—whether it’s a corporate leadership team, a room full of entrepreneurs, or a podcast audience.

What Organizations Say About Having Justine Speak

KNOW, Women Focused Conference

Justine’s keynote at the KNOW Women's FOCU$ED Conference 2025 was exactly what this room needed. It was one of those RARE moments where the entire room went silent. You could literally hear a pin drop!  She started off by describing the profile of a high-achieving woman. It felt like she was speaking directly to me. Every word resonated on a personal level.

As she guided us through the phases and pressures we face as ambitious women, she blended insight, honesty, and empathy in a way that made everyone feel seen, heard, and KNOWN. Her pauses created powerful moments of self-reflection and I found myself deeply moved, fully present, and grateful for her vulnerability.

Justine isn’t just a speaker; she’s a true thought leader. Aspirational, authentic, and deeply human. Her voice, and thoughts will stay with me long after her speech.

Thank you Justine.

-Brittany Acevedo- Membership Success Manager of Know Women
