A Message Your Audience Won't Forget

Shawn Caprice Houston brings 20 years of healthcare expertise and a deeply personal story to every stage she stands on.

She speaks from her life.

Shawn doesn't speak from a PowerPoint. She speaks from her life. She cared for both of her parents at the same time. She has spent 20 years helping families navigate Medicare, senior care, and end-of-life planning. She has sat in rooms where families fell apart because they weren't prepared — and rooms where families held together because they were.

She brings all of that to every engagement — and she leaves every audience with something they can do the moment they walk out the door.

“She doesn't just speak to rooms — she changes them.”
