Key Themes: Resilience alone isn’t enough to thrive in today’s disruptive world; a fresh roadmap to harness change and challenge to feel better, do better, and live better than ever before.
Keynote Overview:
In today’s unpredictable world, stress seems to lurk around every corner. More and more of us insist that we’re “fine” while silently struggling under unrelenting demands.
We are told to “bounce back” and stay resilient, but this cycle of recovery leaves us treading water, drained and stagnant. The truth? Resilience helps us survive constant chaos, but it isn’t enough to thrive through it.
In this compelling keynote, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Tasha Eurich debunks popular myths about resilience, showing why “powering through” keeps us stuck. With insights from her five-year research program, plus a health crisis that almost took her life, she offers a bold new path—using setbacks as fuel to become truly shatterproof. This talk is an urgent guide for transforming challenges into lasting growth, advantage, and peace for individuals, teams, and communities alike.
Participants will walk away with:
- An understanding of the hidden risks of resilience, including why resilience can
fail us and a list of resilience “dos and don’ts.” - A fresh, four-step roadmap to transform setbacks into meaningful growth,
lasting advantage, and future readiness. - Practical tools to reduce reactivity, break self-limiting patterns, and find new
courage, adaptability, and effectiveness.
Ideal Audiences:
- Professionals facing high-stakes, fast-paced, or disruptive environments
- Employees navigating hyper-growth, transformation, or turnarounds
- Anyone experiencing career or life transitions (or people who help others through them)
Key Themes: Resilience fails to address the deeper costs of constantly “powering through”; how women can move beyond mere survival to discover new energy, confidence, and success.
Keynote Overview:
Women today face endless demands while striving to keep everything together. We can present a calm exterior while feeling exhausted and on edge, wondering when (or if) we’ll feel like ourselves again.
Resilience is often seen as the solution, but the pressure to “bounce back” brings unique burdens, forcing us to ignore the toll on our needs and well-being. Resilience can certainly help us survive, but it has its limits. What if there was a second skill set to move past survival to find new growth, authenticity, and agency?
In this compassionate, empowering talk, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Tasha Eurich challenges the belief that simply “powering through” is enough. Drawing on five years of research and her own vulnerable journey, she shows how resilience gets us stuck in survival mode, blocking true peace and strength. Through stories of women who became “shatterproof,” Dr. Eurich reveals how to harness tough moments to fuel transformation, calling women to reclaim who they are at their best.
Participants will walk away with:
- A fresh perspective on resilience, and how “grit gaslighting” and “hitting our resilience ceiling” leave women exhausted and stuck.
- A simple, research-backed process to turn setbacks into strength and find new
ways to meet their needs. - Tools to set healthy boundaries, overcome self-doubt, and pivot with power
Ideal Audiences:
- Women navigating leadership or high-stakes roles
- Women facing constant demands across multiple spheres of life (work, parenting, marriage, health, etc.)
- Female professionals balancing multiple responsibilities, burnout, or career transitions
- Women in organizations that are looking to cultivate a thriving workforce.

There’s just one problem: most people don’t see themselves quite as clearly as they think.

Key Themes: Navigating the surprising self-awareness challenges women face; how women can succeed and advance by harnessing their unique power.
Keynote Overview:
Self-awareness is the foundation for extraordinary performance, meaningful relationships, and a fulfilling career. But getting there can feel out of reach, and such obstacles seem especially pronounced for women (example: while women are seen as more effective, they typically underestimate how others rate their performance). This has real consequences for advancement: less smart risk taking, advocating for our interests, and selling our ideas.
Thankfully, women have several unique self-awareness advantages. By affirming what we stand for—and knowing our unique value—women can confidently navigate the corporate world while staying true to ourselves. Tasha is passionate about helping women harness self-awareness to boost their contributions and careers.
