You’re one of the best in the business Vanessa!
I love that it’s not your typical leadership talk, it’s the talk we all actually need to hear!
We are watching the impact of dysregulation- 
in our workplaces, teams, and world

The pressure that keeps leaders and organizations from performing at their best.

The behaviors that stall innovation.

​The connections that break trust.

What's really going on...

Teams are losing their spark. Leaders are running on empty. High performers are stuck in survival mode—and the ripple shows in engagement, production, and energy.

 

The real challenge isn’t the stress we see—it’s the hidden patterns driving behavior under pressure, keeping people reactive, disconnected, and drained of their natural magnetism.

 The result? Brilliant people exhausted, brilliant ideas stalled, and energy scattered
