Laughter helps to build trust
The team the laughs together…
Ready for a productivity hack straight from your brain’s playbook? Teams that laugh together don’t just vibe better: they perform better. 😄 Here’s the neuroscience: When we share a good laugh, our brains release dopamine (the feel-good, “let’s do this!” chemical) and lower cortisol (the stress signal that drains creativity and energy).
Research in positive psychology shows laughter builds trust and connection, boosts creative problem-solving, and actually shields teams against burnout. In other words, humor isn’t a distraction; it’s performance fuel!
Want more innovation, resilience, or inspiration in your team? Start with a smile. 😉
Bringing Energy, Courage & Momentum to Your 2026 Conference
If you’re curating speakers for a 2026 conference, this is a heads-up that my keynote calendar is now open.
I speak on the human side of performance—helping leaders and teams shift mindset, unlock courage, and re-engage with their work in a way that actually sticks after the conference ends.
Popular keynote themes include:
Main Character Energy at Work – helping people stop playing small and show up with confidence and ownership
The Permission Gap – why capable people hesitate, and how leaders close the gap that stalls engagement and innovation
Energy, Courage & Change – navigating uncertainty without burnout or disengagement
Happiness That Performs – the science of energy, emotion, and sustainable motivation at work
If you’re planning ahead and want a keynote that’s energizing, practical, and genuinely memorable, I’d love to explore what you’re creating.
