Keynote Speeches

Reset with Resilience: How to Reset Quickly and Turn Setbacks Into Forward Momentum

In a world where priorities shift overnight and uncertainty shows up without warning, setbacks are no longer the exception – they’re part of everyday leadership. What separates high-performing teams from struggling ones isn’t the absence of adversity; it’s the ability to reset quickly and regain forward momentum.

This keynote gives audiences that reset method.

Mandy draws from climbing some of the highest peaks in Nepal and around the world, along with her Harvard Leadership Program background, writing a bestselling book Reset with Resilience, and creating one of the world’s largest behavior-change datasets – more than 10,000 client journeys tracked across the past decade through the Hooked on Healthy Habits app. These insights reveal exactly why people stall during uncertainty and what allows them to restart with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Blending science with lived experience from extreme environments, Mandy teaches a practical reset framework that helps individuals and teams move from discouraged to back-in-motion – no matter what comes their way.

Your audience won’t just understand resilience; they’ll know how to reset fast and turn setbacks into forward momentum.

What Your Audience Will Gain

  • A repeatable reset method grounded in research and real-world performance.
  • Tools to transform setbacks into catalysts for deeper clarity and better decisions.
  • Behavior-science strategies that reveal how to break old patterns and rebuild consistency.
  • Strategies to maintain focus even when motivation dips or plans fall apart.
  • Psychological flexibility, enabling quicker, more confident adaptation.
  • A renewed sense of agency, shifting from “Why is this happening?” to “Here’s how I move forward.”

 

The Resilience Advantage: How to Lead with Confidence and Clarity Through Constant Change

Today’s organizations are navigating nonstop change – shifting priorities, evolving expectations, and pressure that never seems to let up. Most people are expected to adapt quickly, stay focused, and perform through uncertainty…without the proper tools of how to.

This keynote gives you the “how.”

Mandy draws on insights from her lessons learnt in extreme environments, Harvard Leadership Program training, and research from over 10,000 behavior-change clients collected through the Hooked on Healthy Habits app she created over a decade ago. Through these combined lenses, she shows audiences that resilience is not a personality trait – it is a trainable capability that strengthens with practice.

With her signature blend of grounded wisdom, lived experience, and research as a best selling author on resilience, Mandy provides audiences with tools that are both credible and immediately actionable. Mandy teaches people how to stay clear, calm, and effective when everything around them shifts.

Audiences don’t just hear about resilience.
They learn exactly how to lead themselves and others with confidence and clarity through constant change.

What Your Audience Will Gain

  • A practical resilience system rooted in behavior science and real-world application.
  • Tools to stay grounded under pressure, even when conditions shift without warning.
  • Decision-making strategies drawn from extreme-environment leadership.
  • A reset method to interrupt overwhelm and regain clarity quickly.
  • The ability to maintain momentum rather than lose progress during challenges.
