Troy Flower

Most of us don’t think we have a hero’s story to tell. We’re trained to see the suffering of others and think ‘we’re experiencing nothing compared to that’. But pain and suffering is relative. For many, it’s the ‘paper cut’ that brings us down in the end. While small repeated losses can become ingrained, so too can small, powerful habits.

Troy shares his story with humour and candour, a rollercoaster across IVF failures, adoption realities and the lure of financial success at the cost of living life.

Call it a wake-up call or a ‘call to arms’, Troy’s messages are crafted to guide the audience into making positive, healthy life choices, look for good in self and others and take control of their own personal health and wellbeing.

As a former executive and award winning MBA graduate, Troy understands the pressure on organisations today. Many employees see it as the company’s responsibility to ensure their happiness and wellbeing at work. Troy turns the tables on this message by bringing in facts around health and wellbeing and makes it clear who’s responsible… you.

Description

Book Troy Flower Keynote Speaker: Resilience, Wellbeing and Personal Health Expert

Organisations that book Troy Flower keynote speaker engage a powerful, honest voice on resilience, mental health and personal wellbeing, drawn from his own lived experience of profound highs and lows. A former corporate executive and award-winning MBA graduate, Troy walked away from the pursuit of financial success after realising the true cost it was having on his health, his marriage and his overall happiness.

Troy shares his story with humour and candour, taking audiences through a rollercoaster of IVF failures, the realities of adoption, and the lure of chasing career success at the expense of living a genuinely fulfilling life. Rather than positioning his experience as more or less significant than anyone else’s struggles, Troy makes the case that pain and suffering are relative, and that it is often the accumulation of small, repeated setbacks, the metaphorical “paper cuts”, that wears people down the most over time. He balances this message with a hopeful counterpoint: that small, consistently practised habits can be just as powerful in rebuilding health, resilience and happiness.

As a health and wellbeing keynote speaker, Troy challenges the modern workplace assumption that wellbeing is solely the employer’s responsibility, instead empowering individuals to take genuine ownership of their own mental and physical health. Drawing on his executive background, he understands the pressures facing organisations today and translates that understanding into practical, relatable strategies for building resilience at both a personal and organisational level.

Troy’s engaging storytelling, genuine vulnerability and practical take-home messages leave audiences motivated to make positive, sustainable changes in their own lives and workplaces. He is a sought-after speaker for corporate wellbeing programs, conferences and leadership events across Australia, where his authentic, down-to-earth approach consistently resonates with audiences from all backgrounds and levels of seniority alike.

Ordinary Heroes

What does it take to be a hero? In a world intoxicated by self-promotion, the hard working, tenacious mother, father, son, daughter who digs in, pushes forward and overcomes life’s battles is the hero.

Today we face a challenge unlike any faced before us. The challenge for our attention, for our mind. Globally, the world brightest, fuelled by excess wealth are engaged in the quest to own our attention… and it’s working.

Life was tough enough already, but now loneliness and Isolation are at record levels, physical activity is low, chronic disease is high, ADHD is everywhere, motivation is waning and we’re increasingly glued to pieces of glass with flashing pixels believing that this is life.

We’ve moved rapidly from hunters and gatherers to swipers and tapers. It’s not healthy. It’s not sustainable. Burnout rates are the canary in the coal mine. It’s time to take back control.

It’s time, as individuals to embrace our evolutionary potential. To be heroes. To re-engage with the actions and behaviours that delivered us to this time of prosperity… to reconnect with hope and optimism. To take action on behaviours that matter.

This is a call to arms to take back control of mind and body. It’s time for us all to be heroes, for ourselves, and for others.

World’s Healthiest Habits.

What makes the world’s healthiest people so alive, energetic and driven? Why do some pockets of people live significantly longer than others? The answer may come down in part to genetics… but the difference between ‘good’ and ‘exceptional’ lives often comes down to habitual behaviours… a.k.a. habits.

For over 30 years now Troy Flower has been studying and experimenting with the world’s healthiest habits. As founder and CEO of Wellteam, Troy will share his insights into daily actions that can deliver great value across mind and body.

Rather than just telling you what to do, this practical, interactive, action-oriented session provides insights into the rationale behind the world’s healthiest habits, providing the what and the why.

Audiences will leave the session with a take home habit-tracking action check-list for implementation in the next 30 days. This is a great way to engage audiences en-masse in healthier behaviours that can drive cultural change and individuals to happier and healthier
