Stress Strategist. Speaker. Coach. Author.

Stress is contagious. Stop the spiral in 60 seconds.

For nearly 20 years, she has worked with high performers who look like they are coping but are running on empty. Her work blends neuroscience, behavioural psychology and practical tools that work in real life.

A regular across national TV, radio and print, she is trusted by organisations including Bupa, Cisco and Rydges.

Topics

Talking Points

  • Workplace Stress & Burnout – Why stress is contagious, how it spreads through teams, and what to do before it spirals.
  • Sustainable High Performance – How high performers stay sharp without burning out, and why pushing through is not a strategy.
  • Leadership Under Pressure – The tools leaders need to stay calm, clear and decisive when the pressure is highest.
  • Focus in a Distraction Epidemic – Why focus is now a competitive advantage and how to protect it in real time.
  • Resilience & Mental Fitness – Building the capacity to recover fast, not just cope, using simple, repeatable habits.
  • Behaviour Change & Micro-Habits – Why big wellness programs fail and how one-minute habits create lasting performance change.
  • The One-Minute Reset – Heidi’s signature method. Practical, science-backed stress interruption tools teams and leaders remember and actually use.
  • Stress is contagious and it’s costing organisations. When one person spirals, the whole team feels it. Heidi explains the neuroscience behind stress contagion and why interrupting it early is a leadership skill, not a wellness trend.
  • High performers who look fine but are running on empty. The most capable people are often the least likely to flag burnout. Heidi unpacks high-functioning stress and what leaders miss until it’s too late.
  • The One-Minute Reset: stress interruption in real time. No apps, no long programs, no meditation. A 60-second, science-backed tool people can use anywhere, in a meeting, before a presentation, mid-crisis.
  • Why resilience advice isn’t enough. Telling people to push through or slow down isn’t a solution. Heidi makes the case for micro-habits and behavioural change as the only sustainable path to high performance.
  • Focus is the new competitive advantage. In a world engineered for distraction, the ability to reset quickly and return to focus is what separates high-performing teams from overwhelmed ones.
  • The snowboard crash that changed everything. A personal story with a universal message. How a Christmas Eve accident in Japan forced Heidi to rethink everything she knew about stress, performance and what it really means to cope.

Heidi Horne is a Stress Strategist, keynote speaker and author of The One-Minute Reset (Wiley), helping leaders, teams and organisations interrupt stress in real time so focus, performance and wellbeing return fast.

For nearly 20 years, Heidi has worked with high performers who look like they are coping but are running on empty. Her work blends neuroscience, behavioural psychology and simple, practical tools that work in real life, even in the most high-pressure environments.

A snowboard crash in Japan on Christmas Eve forced her to stop and completely rethink what she knew about stress and performance. That moment led to the creation of The One-Minute Reset, now used by individuals and teams to reset quickly and perform under pressure.

She is a regular across national TV, radio and print, twice finalist in national business awards, and trusted by organisations including Bupa, Cisco and Rydges.
