The Stress Advantage

Harnessing the Power of Stress to Boost Performance

We’ve gone through pandemics, supply chain issues, and uncertainty in global markets and now it’s time to get back to work. What if instead of trying to fight stress, we could transform it into a competitive advantage?

In this eye-opening keynote, Dr. Rebecca reveals the secret upside of stress that the highest-performing athletes and leaders use to fuel their performance. Helping to move individuals and companies from symptoms of PTSD to PTG (Post Traumatic Growth), she shares her simple science-based framework that allows anyone to stop fighting stress, and start leaning into it - improving productivity, increasing connection to others, and growing through challenges.

  • Trying to battle increasing levels of stress, burnout, and disengagement

  • Ready to return to performance growth

  • Understand the biological root of their stress response and recalibrate that response to work for their benefit in the modern world

  • Effectively engage with their fears and reframe them as energy that can optimize performance and growth
