ATHENA Speaker Luncheon

Succeed with Ease: When Overworked, Overwhelmed, and Overstressed is No Longer Working

Kelli Risse

CEO

Winning in Business

You’re busy. You’re committed. You’re doing important work that makes a difference. But if the way you’re working is leaving you stretched thin, running on fumes, or constantly chasing the next urgent thing… it may not be working for you.

In this bold, practical, and perspective-shifting session, Kelli Risse—peak performance speaker, coach, and author of Mindset Mastery—will challenge what you’ve been taught about success. Because success isn’t about how much you can take on—it’s about how well you lead yourself along the way.

This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level self-care. This isn’t about doing less because you can’t handle more. It’s about doing what works—so you can succeed at the level you’re capable of, without running yourself into the ground.

You’ll walk away with:

• A clear understanding of the hidden habits and patterns that keep you stuck in overwork and overwhelm, even when you care deeply about what you do.
• Practical ways to shift from reactive, survival-mode leadership to intentional choices that support your performance and well-being.
• A fresh, honest look at what success means—on your terms—so you can lead well, live well, and sustain your energy for the long game
