What the military taught me about leading when life gets messy
Resilience is not something you are born with, it is something you practice. Dr. Arielle Jordan combines lessons from her years in the Army with her work as a trauma therapist to give leaders practical tools for navigating stress and uncertainty. This talk moves beyond theory and into real life. Audiences learn how to keep their head clear when pressure builds, how to lead with calm confidence when things feel chaotic, and how to support teams so everyone performs at their best. Whether in business, education, healthcare, or community spaces, participants walk away with a toolkit that helps them step up with strength, adapt when plans change, and lead with clarity and care.
How to keep showing up strong without burning yourself out
Serving others is meaningful work but it is also demanding. Many leaders, clinicians, and caregivers end up exhausted, running on empty while trying to give their best. In this talk, Dr. Arielle Jordan introduces her READY Method, a simple and practical framework to help people reset, recharge, and reconnect with their purpose. She brings honesty, humor, and real strategies that audiences can use immediately to protect their energy and well-being. By the end, participants will understand how to recognize signs of burnout, build habits that keep them steady, and stay connected to why their work matters in the first place. This session is a powerful reminder that caring for yourself is not selfish, it is what makes your impact sustainable.
Talking about the wounds nobody sees but everyone feels
Racial trauma is often invisible but its effects run deep. Dr. Arielle Jordan has lived and studied these realities, and she offers a unique perspective as both a veteran and trauma therapist. In this session, she introduces her STARS Framework, a powerful tool for understanding and addressing the impact of racism on mental health, leadership, and workplace culture. This is not just a theoretical conversation, it is an honest and compassionate look at what people experience every day and how leaders and organizations can respond in meaningful ways. Participants leave with greater awareness, practical tools to support equity and healing, and the courage to create spaces where people feel safe, respected, and valued.
Why just getting by is not the same thing as truly living
Too many people believe resilience is about pushing through hard times. Dr. Arielle Jordan knows from personal and professional experience that resilience is about more than survival, it is about transformation. In this heartfelt and science backed talk, she shows how struggle can become the foundation for strength, clarity, and joy. Audiences learn how to reframe setbacks as opportunities, how to reclaim their story after hardship, and how to find the courage to live fully again. With warmth and authenticity, Dr. Jordan offers both hope and practical steps, helping people shift from carrying invisible weight to embracing new possibilities. This talk leaves participants encouraged, motivated, and ready to thrive.
What happens when leaders put people first and mean it
Organizations are strongest when their people are restored, not just productive. Through her Mission REDEFINE framework, Dr. Arielle Jordan shows leaders how to create cultures that fuel both performance and well-being. This talk challenges outdated models of leadership and offers a more sustainable approach rooted in humanity, balance, and innovation. With a mix of science, storytelling, and soul, Dr. Jordan demonstrates how workplaces that prioritize mental wellness are also the ones that inspire creativity and long-term success. Participants leave with a clear roadmap for building teams that are resilient, engaged, and prepared to grow.
