Your highest performers are running on empty. This talk changes that.

High achievers are carrying more than ever, and most of them are doing it on caffeine, willpower, and not enough food.

What if they’re not burned out because they're weak or lack discipline, but because they’re underfueled?

No amount of hustle, optimization, or pushing through will fix a body that's running on empty.

In this keynote, Kait Richardson — registered dietitian, TEDx speaker, and author of How to Eat Like a Normal Person — makes the case that energy isn't a personality trait. It's a biological outcome. And it's one your team can build.

Drawing on nutrition science, real clinical experience, and the same framework that has transformed the lives of 850+ clients, Kait introduces The Full Plate Framework: a practical, guilt-free approach to fueling ambition without sacrificing the life you've already built.

Your audience will leave knowing:

• Why willpower keeps failing and what's actually going on in their body when it does

• How to build steady, all-day energy without restriction, obsession, or overhauling their entire life

• What "food noise" is, why high achievers are most prone to it, and how to silence it for good

• A simple, sustainable framework they can start using that same day (no meal prep Sunday required)

Perfect for: corporate wellness programs, leadership conferences, executive retreats, and any event focused on burnout prevention, sustainable performance, and team effectiveness.

Are your hardest working people actually falling behind because they don't care or because they're running on fumes?

Here's what nobody talks about in the burnout conversation: you can have all the resilience training, mindfulness apps, and motivational posters in the world, and still crash hard by 3pm if your body isn't fueled. Burnout isn't necessarily a mindset problem. And that's actually great news, because there’s an easier fix: biology!

In this keynote, Kait Richardson RD cuts through the wellness noise and gets to the real reason your team is exhausted. She's warm, she's funny, and she tells the truth, including the parts that make people laugh because they've never heard a speaker say it quite like that before.

Using her FUEL Method, Kait gives teams a simple, practical framework for rebuilding their energy from the inside out.

No juice cleanses. No 5am routines. Just real strategies that work for real people with real lives.

Your audience will walk away with:

• A totally new understanding of why burnout happens and why pushing through makes it worse

• Simple nutrition strategies that restore energy without overhauling everything

• Tools to stop the afternoon crash, reduce cravings, and think more clearly all day

• Practical habits they can start that same week (no willpower required!)

Perfect for: corporate wellness programs, employee appreciation events, and leadership development days focused on burnout, productivity, and sustainable performance.

The performance edge nobody is talking about starts on your plate.

Your team is talented, driven, and committed. They're also running their most valuable asset on fumes.

Not because they don't care but because in high-performance cultures, fueling your body is always the last priority. And your brain, the organ responsible for every decision, every relationship, and every deadline, pays the price.

In this keynote, Kait Richardson, registered dietitian, TEDx speaker, and author of How to Eat Like a Normal Person, makes the case that nutrition is the most overlooked performance and mental health tool in any organization.

Using her SHARP Framework, a five-part system built for real people with real schedules, Kait shows high-performing teams how to fuel their brain and body on their actual lives. Airport terminals, DoorDash orders, back-to-back meetings, client dinners. No meal prep. No perfection. Just a simple system that works.

Your audience will leave knowing:

• Why the afternoon fog, mood dips, and decision fatigue by 6pm are fueling problems, not willpower problems

• The gut-brain science that explains how what you eat directly shapes your mood, focus, and stress resilience

• How to apply the SHARP Framework anywhere, from the office kitchen to a hotel minibar to a DoorDash order

• One realistic change they can make that same week that will actually move the needle

Perfect for: corporate wellness programs, Mental Health Awareness events, leadership development days, and any organization investing in sustainable performance and team resilience.
