Amy Green

Amy isn’t your typical wellbeing speaker. With a background in

teaching, leadership, and years of enquiry into wellbeing and workload, she has lived both the personal cost of burnout and the professional challenge of leading others through it.

Unlike many in the field, Amy doesn’t sell quick fixes or one-size-fits-all programs. She combines lived experience, deep expertise in positive psychology, and practical tools that people and leaders can actually use.

Her unique perspective comes from bridging two worlds: the personal as she navigated her own journey and rediscovered wellbeing for herself, and the professional through working with organisations across Australia to reduce workload, strengthen culture, and embed wellbeing in a way that lasts.

Amy has a remarkable willingness to say what others won’t. She calls out the myths we’ve been sold, reframes what wellbeing really looks like, and equips people with strategies that go beyond resilience to redesign the way we live and work.

Amy leaves audiences with clear frameworks they can apply straight away, and powerful reflective questions that shift how they see their work, their wellbeing, and their lives.

Based in Brisbane

Keynote topic

The Wellbeing Lie

Traditional wellbeing programs often fail to deliver lasting change. Amy Green exposes why, and partners with organisations to embed approaches that work. With a unique combination of lived experience and organisational expertise, Amy shows leaders how to redesign workloads, strengthen culture, and create conditions where people can thrive. Her message goes beyond wellbeing and resilience—it’s about building workplaces where wellbeing becomes the driver for engagement, productivity, and impact.

Achievable Wellbeing

Define wellbeing in a way that works for you, not by someone else’s checklist or what you see online.

Balance the quick fixes with deeper meaning and purpose so that your wellbeing lasts beyond the moment. See your emotions as data and use stress and frustration as signals for what needs to change. Build resilience through small daily habits so you have the strength and tools ready before a crisis hits.

Let your version of wellbeing evolve with your age, stage, and season of life instead of clinging to what used to work. Value the small everyday moments; they bring more fulfilment than the big events we chase. Challenge the wellbeing lie by moving beyond surface fixes and start redesigning systems that truly support you and how you work.

Busy is broken

We’ve glorified busy for too long, and it’s making us miserable. Amy calls time on the myth that success means doing more, showing how true achievement comes from a different kind of courage: choosing what matters, cutting the noise, and reclaiming your life. This keynote is a rallying cry for leaders and teams to leave “busy” behind and build a way of working and living that’s meaningful, sustainable, and deeply human. Are you ready to break the cycle?

A New Version Of Success

Gain clarity on why the cult of busy has become so embedded in our culture, the hidden costs it creates for our health, happiness, and productivity, and why breaking free from it is no longer optional.

Learn how to redefine success on your own terms, moving beyond external expectations and traditional measures of achievement, and instead anchoring it to what truly matters to you.

Explore simple but powerful habits that protect your focus, restore your energy, and give you space to think clearly and live intentionally, both at work and in life.

Shift your mindset from “doing more” to creating meaningful, sustainable impact, understanding that success is not about how much you can fit into a day but about the value of what you choose to do.
