Calling all high-achievers, overcommitted professionals, and relentless doers — it’s time for a mindset revolution. Join us at The Future of Pediatric Practice Sunday, August 31 at 10:00am for Busy Is A Four-Letter Word – Martyritis and the Superhero Trap. In this dynamic and soul-stirring session, nationally recognized speaker and leadership strategist Kishshana Palmer tackles the toxic productivity culture head-on in Busy Is A Four-Letter Word: Martyritis and the Superhero Trap.
Kishshana — known for her bold presence, sharp wit, and transformational coaching — brings her signature energy and authenticity to this powerful conversation. Drawing from her groundbreaking work as CEO of ManageMint, Inc., and her deep expertise in organizational leadership and wellness, she introduces a radical reframe: success doesn’t have to come at the cost of burnout.
In this session, attendees will unpack the concept of “Martyritis” — the compulsion to overwork in service of others, often at the expense of one’s own health and joy. Kishshana will challenge the “superhero” mentality so many leaders fall into and offer a refreshing alternative rooted in strategic simplification. She’ll demonstrate how rest, self-care, and saying “no” can become your most powerful tools for productivity and personal fulfillment.
Participants will walk away with clear, actionable strategies, including how to develop their own 5-Star Wellness Plan. Through Kishshana’s honest storytelling and practical frameworks, attendees will learn to ditch the hustle-for-hustle’s-sake mindset and reclaim clarity, purpose, and energy.
This is not just a motivational talk — it’s an urgent intervention. Get ready to break up with burnout, unlearn busy, and build a life and leadership practice that actually works. Are you ready to achieve more by doing less? Register NOW for FPP2025.
