Reneé’s lifelong goal is to be able to say at the end of her life, “I come to You empty.  I have nothing left.  I used all of the gifts You gave me.” Reneé is wife to Tom and mother to Alexander, Elizabeth and Grace.  When Reneé is not out speaking, she is chasing volleyballs, basketballs, and golf balls with her children. She is an avid outdoor enthusiast and when home can be found horseback riding, kayaking or working in her vineyard and gardens. Reneé is a keen observer of life and sees every moment as a time to gather material for her keynotes. Her many girlfriends, three children, and positively 100% Norwegian husband, provide her with more than ample laugh-out-loud moments to pass on to her audiences.
