Thank you for your interest in having The Heart Rock Guy be part of your event!
Whether you're planning a school assembly, keynote, church event, conference, youth event, or another type of gathering, we'd love to learn more about what you're planning.
Please fill out the short form below, and we'll get back to you with availability and options for your event.


As of May 2026, I've done 180+ school kindness assemblies and shared over 200,000 hearts with students all across the country. I've also participated in hundreds of community and religious events.
I do not speak about suicide prevention or antibullying, rather, I show how I make my stone hearts, then share stories and experiences I've had hiding them in public places and handing them out. I adjust which stories I tell based on the age of my audience.
I offer each person in attendance, children and grownups alike, their own heart rock reminder to keep their whole life to remind them that they are amazing, their life is a miracle, and that the world is a better place because they are in it. By offering one to everyone, and bringing extras, I don't single anyone out, or leave anyone out. I encourage everyone to keep it for as long as they need it, perhaps even their whole life, and when they are ready, to consider passing it on. I invite them to keep their heart rock and give it away daily by using it as a stencil to make paper hearts.
I speak to groups of all ages. I've spoken to preschoolers, school psychologists, students of all ages, business leaders, religious groups, etc.
I emphasize the joy that comes from Reaching Out + Creating Kindness (R.O.C.K.).
I teach the importance of being N.I.C.E.: Noticing others, taking Interest in them, and how that naturally leads to having Empathy and acting with Compassion.
I believe that we are each a powerful force for creating kindness and making the world a better place, starting with our families, friends, and communities.
I know that we can save lives by reminding ourselves and others that they matter, are loved, and are not alone.
I am aware of 126 instances where one of my handmade hearts has been used to prevent a potential death by suicide.
If you are interested in having me come speak in your school, business, church group, or community, please contact me below.
I require that all travel expenses, the cost of a handmade stone heart for each participant (not retail, but production cost), and a small speaking fee be paid by the event organizer, as this helps further my heart rock kindness mission.
