She speaks rarely, by invitation. Literary salons, women’s intensives, conferences where the audience knows how to listen. The talks are essays delivered out loud, same voice as the writing, same demand on the room.

She accepts a small number of invitations each year. Literary, cultural, women’s-leadership, and Levantine-diaspora audiences welcome. For corporate events, audience-fit conversation precedes any commitment.
