From Burnout to Breakthrough: Unlocking Peak Performance and Personal Well-Being

Is your team struggling with burnout or overwhelm? Do they find it challenging to integrate their personal and professional life? Is your company having trouble retaining top talent? Is your team’s performance struggling or motivation lacking?

Overwhelm is real but it doesn’t have to be your story. Drawing from his own story of burnout, overwhelm, and personal crisis, Kent will explain why the common idea of “balance” is exhausting and ineffective. He will then introduce a new framework to avoid overwhelm, become more productive, and live a full and satisfying life on all fronts.

Some of the highlights are:

Balance vs. Integrity (and why balance is the wrong word)
A profoundly simple definition of burnout
How to achieve work-life integrity using my Rhythms of R.E.S.T.” framework
Actionable ways to replenish yourself
Where to begin your journey to work-life integrity

Through the innovative Rhythms of R.E.S.T. Framework, leaders will learn:
R – Relational Rhythms: How to cultivate deep, meaningful connections that fuel personal and professional growth
E – Emotional/Mental Rhythms: Techniques to manage your emotional landscape and enhance cognitive performance
S – Spiritual Rhythms: Practices to tap into purpose, meaning, and transcendence in your leadership journey
T – Tangible Rhythms: Strategies to optimize your physical health, work environment, and service beyond yourself for sustained success

*This can be presented as a keynote, a three-hour interactive seminar/workshop, or an all-day interactive seminar/workshop.

The Purpose Effect: How Personal Purpose Drives Professional Excellence

In today’s competitive business landscape, organizations are discovering a powerful link between personal purpose and professional excellence. McKinsey & Company’s groundbreaking research reveals that when employees align their personal purpose with their work, organizations experience dramatic improvements in performance, retention, and innovation.

However, a critical gap exists: while 85% of executives feel connected to their purpose at work, the same percentage of frontline staff struggle to find meaning in their daily roles. This disconnect isn’t just a cultural challenge—it’s a bottom-line issue.

This transformative workshop provides HR leaders with concrete strategies to help employees discover and activate their personal purpose, leading to measurable business outcomes:

The purpose-performance connection:

6.5 times more likely to report higher resilience
4 times more likely to report better health
2.6 times more likely to want to stay at the company
1.5 times more likely to go above and beyond in their role

Participants will learn:

How to unlock their authentic personal purpose through proven discovery frameworks
Techniques to leverage individual strengths and values for increased workplace impact
Strategies to find deeper meaning in day-to-day work responsibilities
Methods to bring their “whole self” to work while maintaining professional excellence
Tools to create sustainable work-life fulfillment that enhances career performance

*This can be presented as a keynote, workshop, a three-hour interactive seminar, or an all-day interactive seminar.

Win the Morning, Win the Day!

Do you start your day with worry, anxiety, overwhelm, irritability, anger, dread? Or with peace, joy, fulfillment, contentment, and confidence?

At the end of most days, do you ask yourself, what did I really accomplish today? Or do you feel fulfilled, energized, and productive?

The truth is that every one of us has a morning routine that is either helping us or hurting us, but we rarely take time to evaluate it.

As a values-driven professional, business owner, entrepreneur, leader, or manager, you know mornings are the key to maximizing your day, but you’re just not sure how to get there. Mornings may be the only space you have to get some quiet and focused time before the kids wake up, the emails start rolling in, your boss texts you, clients or employees come to you with problems, equipment breaks down, or the problems start. This workshop will provide attendees with the following takeaways:

Leverage the power of first things
Evaluate your current morning and evening rhythm to identify which habits are good, bad, or neutral
Craft an evening routine that will set you up for success in the morning
Identify the components that make up your ideal morning rhythm
Define your three next steps to start implementing your ideal morning routine right away

Time Management Triage

Time isn’t an enemy to fight, it’s a resource to steward.

In this essential workshop, you will gain valuable insights into mastering time management, designed to help you transition from feeling overwhelmed by your tasks to confidently stewarding your time. We’ll explore the common challenges many face with time management—like the feeling there’s never enough time—and flip the script to help you see time as a resource to be managed, not an enemy to be fought. By adopting a mindset of ownership and growth, you’ll learn how to make intentional choices about how you spend your time, turning “I have to” into “I get to.”

Key Takeaways:

Empowerment Over Time: Shift from a victim mindset to one of ownership, understanding that how you spend your time is a choice that reflects your values.
Practical Systems: Learn how to implement a personalized, living time management system that fits your life, channels energy to where it’s most needed, and closes open loops that drain your mental energy.
Clarity Through Limits: Discover how recognizing the limitations of time can bring clarity and drive innovation, helping you focus on what truly matters.

This workshop will equip you with the tools and mindset shifts needed to design a life-giving time management system that aligns with your deepest values and priorities.

Leadership from Within: Discovering Your Guiding Principles

In an era where authenticity drives engagement and leadership effectiveness, understanding and living your personal core values is more crucial than ever. Yet many leaders struggle to clearly define and consistently embody the principles that guide their decisions and actions.

This immersive workshop helps senior leaders discover, articulate, and activate their personal core values through proven frameworks and reflective exercises. Using methods developed by thought leaders like Stephen Covey and Brené Brown, participants will move beyond surface-level value statements to create meaningful, actionable principles that drive both personal and organizational success.

Through guided exercises and interactive sessions, participants will:

Uncover their authentic core values through powerful visualization techniques
Transform abstract values into concrete, identity-based habits
Develop practical strategies for living their values in challenging situations
Create accountability systems for sustained value alignment
Design a personal mission statement that guides leadership decisions

Perfect for: C-suite executives, Senior Leaders, HR Directors, and emerging leaders committed to authentic, values-driven leadership.

Let’s Talk

Hi, I’m Kent

Hi, I’m Kent. At age 15, I led a group of friends to rappel off a bridge with a garden hose and rubber gloves. Admittedly, not my best idea, but I’ve been leading ever since.

Since then, I’ve led or founded three organizations, written two books, coached high achievers across multiple industries, and captivated audiences both large and small on four continents for over two decades.

I understand the challenges of leadership and organizational life, and I’m ready to share my insights with you.

When Kent speaks, things happen! His speaking combines transformational teaching, practical wisdom, and authentic relationship. His dynamic experience also allows him to speak in numerous settings: 1-on-1, small or large groups, and conferences. I highly recommend Kent!
