Ready to level up?

Learn simple, science-backed tools to achieve peak performance.  And the best part? NO MOTIVATION REQUIRED.

When it’s time to suit up, show up, and get things done, an untrained mind will sabotage the situation.

4 Reasons Organizations Love Working with Britt

  • 1. Fluff Free Keynotes

    As a Duke-educated neuropsychotherapist, trauma specialist, and award-winning adjunct faculty at the University of Kansas, Britt infuses her keynotes with science-based information and actionable takeaways. As someone who literally wrote the book on being stuck, Britt is a sought-after expert on breaking through inertia.

  • 2. Relevant Information for a Post-Covid Workforce

    The old way of working no longer works for a post-pandemic workforce. With cutting-edge information grounded in science, Britt’s themes include how to prepare your people for face-to-face contact, the neuroscience of motivation (and why motivation is not a mindset issue), how to crack the procrastination code, de-therapizing the workplace, and why high-achieving people do not need a balanced life (and what to do instead).

  • 3. Bringing Levity to Tough Topics

    Some people get nervous about the idea of bringing mental health information to the workplace. Britt’s entertaining and easy-to-implement techniques require zero therapizing, zero empathy, and zero excuses. Not only is the trend of bringing all your feelings to work (and trauma dumping) not comfortable, it’s 100% not necessary. With her engaging style (and personal anecdotes from both sides of the couch), Britt demystifies the overwhelming amount of mental health information so your team has exactly what they need to move forward.

  • 4. A New Approach for High-Achievers

    No matter how many sales you close, how many commission checks come raining down, or how many pats on the back you receive, there’s a nagging feeling of restlessness, irritability, and edginess that most high achievers can’t seem to shake. Most of us were never taught how to drive our brains. If you are the owner of a body, you are the owner of a brain— but drivers-ed for the brain doesn’t exist. Nevertheless, everyone gets stuck with burnout, stress, and feeling like they can’t quite keep up with the hamster wheel of life—until now.

All keynotes can be customized to fit the audience and industry needs.
Virtual and in-person options available.
