Dorsey Standish Biography
A mechanical engineer turned CEO of Mastermind, Dorsey Standish helps high-performing individuals and teams slow down, reduce stress, and sharpen their edge. Her science-backed brain training blends cutting-edge research with real-life strategies, making mindfulness practical and transformational—even for Type A minds that think they’re “too busy” to meditate. Armed with degrees in mechanical engineering and cognitive neuroscience, Standish bridges the gap between research and reality with relatable keynotes that spark sustainable performance and well-being.
A trained teacher of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction through Brown University, she has guided thousands in evidence-based practices that boost focus, emotional intelligence, and resilience. She has spoken for companies like Staples, Toyota, Meta, Pier One, and American Airlines, and her teachings are grounded in deep personal practice, including regular silent meditation retreats. Yet Standish credits her greatest lessons in presence and patience to her two young sons—and her wife, who shares her journey of mindful leadership and grounded joy.
