“We need to first be limited in order to become limitless.” – Phil Hansen
Speaker Phil Hansen is known by his fans as “the artist for the people” and his art is a unique cross between traditional art, electronic media, offbeat materials and interactive experiences. On his YouTube channel, he shows the process of his art-making which has attracted millions of views. His success today makes it hard to imagine that Phil once almost let go of his talent and dream.
Phil Hansen was an art student when he got devastating life-changing news about his health. Due to an intense style of pointillism, he was diagnosed with a tremor in his drawing hand. This led him feeling devastated and he lost hope and dropped out of art school until a neurologist told him one day to “embrace the shake”. This became the beginning of a new adventure for Phil, and it drew him to be more creative in his art.
Phil told his story at a TED event and his story was shared and viewed by thousands. Through his keynotes, his story keeps inspiring individuals, executives, leaders and teams to embrace whatever challenge they’re going through and use it to their advantage. Speaker Phil Hansen also offers interactive experiences that connect people in a new and different way. The originality of the final art piece has wowed audiences all over the world.

His program will help them focus on what they can do to help each other and themselves rather than look for external resources.
Whether your virtual conference is on Zoom, a live private Facebook group, or professionally hosted, Phil will genuinely connect a highly relevant message to your attendees
Audience takeaways:
The term “Embrace the Shake” is coined from Artist Phil Hansen’s personal story of transformation. After developing a career-ending tremor in his drawing hand, Phil embraced his “shake” both physically and metaphorically by redefining his limitation as an impetus for creativity. Phil not only restored his artistic abilities, he became a much more creative and innovative artist than ever before. Upon sharing his message on the TED stage and millions subsequently after, “Embrace the Shake” has become a motto for many businesses to approach their limitations in a new way.
Phil’s powerful message of finding creativity within limitations will inspire you to stop looking on the outside, and start looking inside yourself for resources that can transform your challenges into opportunities for success. And like Phil’s art, “Embrace the shake” isn’t just a talk, it’s an experience! Through jaw-dropping visuals and LIVE interactive art, get ready to break preconceived assumptions, activate your creative capacity, and bring fresh ways of viewing the task at hand that will culminate with success
