EMOTION EXCHANGE


Powerful communication is NOT information exchange, it's emotion exchange.

 You don't want your desired audience to THINK of you. You want them to FEEL your message, FEEL your solution, FEEL your products and services working in their life.
You want them to EXPERIENCE what working with you and buying from you would be like. This is how you create a deep connection with your people, with your audience.


Here's the problem... almost all Health & Wellness Professionals have been trained solely in information exchange and have no training in emotion exchange. 

You can't just share information and expect people to come to you.

 When choosing between multiple professionals, people gravitate to those individuals who they trust, who they like, who they feel like they know, who they feel "get it", who have a personal story themselves, and who have earned the right to speak to them.Â
The public trust of health experts is lower than it's been in a long long time. There are many reasons for this but it's imperative that Health & Wellness Professionals regain the public trust and develop ways to deeply connect with their desired audience in a short amount of time.

Dr. Reef Karim integrated existential psychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics and Hollywood Performance Techniques for Audience Engagement to create a powerful platform called Mad Genius.


The Mad Genius Method has helped politicians, A-list celebrities, royalty and CEO's to become highly effective communicators.

It's time YOU learned this powerful platform and deploy this skill in your life. 

Introducing... EMOTION EXCHANGE



WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

- When to use information exchange and when to use emotion exchange in communication online and with desired clients.
- How to use the power of emotion exchange in sales conversations

- How to use the power of emotion exchange in relationship conversations and conflict resolution

- How to regain public trust for Health & Wellness Professionals by moving people emotionally to take action.

- How to inspire people to experience your message, products and services to trust you, work with you, buy from you and believe in your message and ideas.


THE SPEAKER

Rarely do you see a scientist, healer, and performing artist sharing the same stage, let alone the same mind. But Reef Karim is an academic by day and performer by night who specializes in teaching business leaders the art and science of emotional exchange and the mad genius formula to not just deliver information but to emotionally move an audience to take action in a short amount of time
This is the secret behind some of the world's greatest speakers and sales people.
Reef took his background and experience in neuroscience, existential psychology, television hosting, feature film acting and advertising and created a program and methodology unlike any other.
Reef founded the Mad Genius Method, the Mad Genius VIP Program and Mad Genius LIVE Bootcamp; he served as an Assistant Clinical Professor at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience for over a decade, published in prestigious medical journals, and now speaks on stages all over the world.
Reef’s innovative work has been profiled in Time, Forbes, Business Insider, Oprah.com and he’s been interviewed by Oprah, Larry King, Deepak Chopra, Anderson Cooper, Dr. Oz and many other media outlets. He's hosted multiple network television shows, acted in big feature films and performed improv and stand up comedy on stages all over.

Dr. Reef is a transformational scientist, highly-sought-after communications advisor, and award-winning performing artist who believes that the future of health is in health communication as he grew tired of seeing so many smart health & wellness experts, with life changing and life-saving messages, NOT be seen, heard, or have great impact.
That's why he created Mad Genius.
Reef and his team are on a mission to train as many health professionals and entrepreneurs as possible in the Mad Genius Method so they are seen as preeminent thought leaders, NOT just in their clinics, centers, and hospitals, but on social media, on podcasts, on television, in film, and in all media.

Disruptive Communication Workshop
Keynote By: Dr. Reef Karim
Loews Coronado Bay Resort

Coronado, CA 92118
Keynote Address
Bay Terrace
Friday June 27th, 2025
Keynote: 9:00 am to 12:30 pm
Â
One of the most effective and powerful ways for busy health & wellness professionals to generate more impact, influence, income, and scale business is through disruptive communication training in storytelling, performance, messaging, and persona development.
Do you know how to convey your value?
Do you know how to inspire people, emotionally move people, and compel your desired audience to take action? To feel inspired to work with you, buy from you, and believe in you and your message?
It's time to learn the art and science of disruptive messaging to say what other people are thinking, to be seen as an insider, to gain the trust and admiration of your desired audience, to stop the scroll, to command authority and attention.
Learn the SECRET behind many of the world’s greatest speaker and sales people.
Because if you don’t know how to package WHAT you say and know HOW to say it, you’ll be left behind. It doesn’t matter how many degrees you have or how much specialty training you have, or where you went to school, what matters is…
Can you deliver emotion exchange instead of just information exchange
In this keynote, Dr. Reef Karim shares the neuroscience of emotional encoding, principles of neuromarketing, and the psychological science of audience emotional investment and existential psychology for memorable persona development.
All key components in Disruptive Communication.
There are so many credible, qualified, smart health experts who have really important messages to share, LIFE-CHANGING messages, LIFE-SAVING messages, who aren’t seen, and who aren’t able to stand out from the noise.
Let’s be real.
You have spent so much time, energy, and resources to get trained in your technical expertise. Now it’s time to get trained in how to COMMUNICATE that expertise.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Ideate your provocative statement to open your signature talk and all content creation
- Come up with 3-5 data and statistics as evidentiary support for your provocative statement
- Document your three main rants: the problem rant, the solution rant, the “why you” rant.
- Know the novelty and differentiation of your solution to the problem you’re an expert on.
- Craft your aha moment discovery story of your big idea utilizing our proprietary template.

MASTER YOUR MADNESS WORKSHOP

How To Find Personal Meaning & Creative Vision In A World That Doesn’t Want You To
Opening Keynote: Dr. Reef Karim
TPN Health
Ascendent IOP
210 East 58th Street
New York, NY, 10022
February 25th, 2025
Event 3 pm to 5 pm Eastern
Â
Master Your Madness is part social commentary, part practical wisdom, and part action-driven techniques for clinicians working with clients/patients and individuals struggling from trauma, mental health challenges, addictions, and existential issues.
This keynote is delivered by thought leader Dr. Reef Karim, who helps inspire us and our clients to find meaning in a world that is often toxic and troubling, leaving many in a constant state of crisis. Dr. Reef helps both clinicians and the people we work with better their human experience by redefining the madness out there; he does this by shifting our mind and energy from stress and conformity to inspiration, creative vision, and meaning.
If you are a clinician who wants to help your clients stop self-sabotage, overcome the status quo to feel more alive, and to operate their life with more connection and authenticity, this experience is for you.
The educational goal for this workshop is to: increase knowledge of how the unconscious drives our behaviors, decisions, and feelings about ourselves; improve clinician self-realization as well as provide them with the skills to improve their clients/patients’ self-realization; and increase insight and tools to better help clients in crisis.
In a culture that feels toxic to the pursuit of our personal meaning, with mental health treatment skyrocketing and the personal development industry exploding, this content is more important than ever before.
Our technology has far outpaced our brain’s ability to process it, rendering many feeling overstimulated, unexpressed, uninspired, and unrealized.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Know how to utilize the five different modalities individuals can utilize to explore their unconscious.


- Identify three ways to enhance cognitive flexibility to expand your creative vision and find newsolutions to old problems.


- Describe how to use Dr. Reef’s three rhythms when assessing your blocks, resistance, and limitations.
- Discuss how to better understand mental health through the metaphor of madness energy.
- Know how to become the gatekeeper of your own mind to protect your energy of inspiration.

Â
MAD GENIUS METHOD
Let's be real.Â
Most experts have no idea how to pitch themselves. They have no idea how to share WHO they are, WHAT they do and WHY they do it in a way that's engaging, captivating, energized, and has people leaning in and sitting at the edge of their seats.Â
Why?
Because experts are great at what they've been trained in.
Information. Procedures.Â
But, they've never been trained in HOW to deliver that information, specifically in a way that will gain more trust, relatability, and inspiration such that the desired audience will TAKE ACTION.
In fact, most experts have been taught the exact opposite of what they should be doing in this media-dominated culture we live in. They've been taught NOT to share their struggle story. NOT to gain trust by revealing more of who they are and why they do what they do.Â
Most experts don't even know their story, let along how to deliver that story
That's where the Mad Genius Method comes in.
In this talk, you will learn the four pillars of the Mad Genius Method and how to elevate your brand and business by utilizing these four steps in a specific and sequential manner.
This process has had amazing results with our alumni; increased ad engagement by 50%, attracting new investor capital of over 3 million dollars, crushing a new talk with high audience engagement on a Tony Robbins stage, pushing through blocks and resistance in a few weeks that have been consuming one of our alumni for over a decade.Â
Â
This works and you're going to learn how you can utilize it in your life.

TROLL TALK WORKSHOP

Â
A two-hour workshop on how to overcome blocks, resistance, limitations, and fear to step into your power and become the person you want to be.
Â
TROLL TALK WORKSHOP
Health Business Growth Conference
April 8th, 2023
10am to 12pm
SPEAKER
Dr. Reef Karim
Troll Talk
An experiential workshop in visibility and courage to put you, your message, and ideas out there.
For most entrepreneurs, coaches, personal brand owners and CEO’s, their biggest obstacle is NOT coming up with ideas, or building a business, it’s putting YOU out in front of your brand talking about your ideas, message, and story.
Because of fear.
In this workshop, you’ll be introduced to a phrase called: Troll Talk
The trolls are the usually unhappy people who negatively comment from the comfort of their own home. They usually don’t put themselves out there but behind a screen, they feel empowered.
Ever see one negative comment and 10 positive ones but you can’t get your mind off of that one negative comment? We definitely carry a bias toward negative commentary.Â
The reason a lot of business leaders don’t scale, don’t go big, is they worry about the trolls.
It's time you rid yourself of this fear. The fear of fully expressive yourself.
The fear of “what will they say?”
Courage is such an important part of finding freedom in your professional pursuits.
Especially when you’ve been conditioned to live your life for impression management and pleasing others.
Spend some time figuring out your dragon, your emotional triggers, your unconscious fears and your counters/rebuttals.
Â
It will serve you well when you encounter trolls, naysayers, and negativity, and if you're growing your resilience, you will face them.
I wish you courage, creativity, originality, and madness in your journey!
Â
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
1) The 5 Types of Courage
2) The Troll Talk Experience
3) Building Resilience For Enhanced Visibility
4) The Past Courageous Acts Inventory
5) Facing The Dragon
