Become a Guest Speaker
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in becoming a speaker at the Sacramento Goddess Festival.
Our speaker program is designed to honor many ways of sharing wisdom, experience, and insight. We recognize that not all teachings are meant for the same setting or format, and we intentionally offer two distinct speaker pathways to support both intimate knowledge-sharing and deeper, extended exploration.
At the Sacramento Goddess Festival, speakers may participate in one of two roles: Wisdom Keepers or Guest Speakers. Each option offers a different presentation style, time commitment, and audience experience, allowing you to choose the format that best aligns with your work, your message, and how you wish to connect with the festival community.
To help you explore what is welcome at the festival, we’ve included a comprehensive list of topics, modalities, and presentation styles. Use this list as a guide to see where your offering fits, then review the speaker pathways to determine which format best supports your work.
Below, you’ll find details on each speaker option to help you determine the best fit for your offering.
Guest Speakers
At the Sacramento Goddess Festival, Guest Speakers are featured voices invited to share insight, experience, and perspective on topics aligned with the festival’s themes of empowerment, creativity, healing, culture, and personal growth.
Guest Speaker presentations are scheduled sessions designed for a larger audience and a more structured format than Wisdom Keeper offerings. These sessions may include teaching, storytelling, discussion, guided practices, or interactive elements, and allow for deeper exploration of a subject.
Presentation lengths
Guest Speakers will utilize 45, 60, 90, or 120 minutes to share their presentation, class, or workshops and any brief audience interaction (Q&A).
Wisdom Keepers
At the Sacramento Goddess Festival, Wisdom Keepers are guides, teachers, and storytellers who share lived knowledge, ancestral practices, and intuitive arts with the community.
Wisdom Keeper presentations take place in dedicated speaker areas throughout the festival and are designed to be intimate, focused offerings rather than long-form lectures.
Presentation lengths
Wisdom Keepers will utilize 15, 30, or 45 minutes to share their teachings. Total time includes introduction, teaching, demonstration, and any brief audience interaction.
