Dr Rebecca Heiss Author

Dr. Rebecca Heiss knows stress isn't going anywhere, and it's her biggest frustration to watch people try to "get rid of it!". As a stress physiologist, Dr. Heiss has focused her work allowing us all to transform our stress so that it can springboard us to our highest level of performance, passion, and purpose. Her research has been designated "transformative" by the National Science Foundation and it is waking up audiences around the world. As an author and highly sought-after professional speaker, Rebecca has found her calling in helping others recognize the power of using stress energy for good - even when we think it's not. A former educator, Dr. Heiss spent much of her earlier career in the classroom at both the high school and college levels and was recruited to be a founding member of an innovative charter school with a focus on entrepreneurial thinking and impact-based learning. Today she shares her T-minus 3 Technique to transform fears to fuel from stages around the world as a full-time speaker and facilitator of her Fearless Masterclass. She continues her research on how we can turn anxiety, stress and trauma into Post Traumatic Growth (PTG) rather than PTSD. Rebecca's "fear(less)" message inspires hope and actionable insights to train our brains to work for us, rather than against us in times of change and uncertainty. Rebecca lives in South Carolina with her spoiled rotten dogs named Guinness & Murphy and every day tries to live her life motto: "Spread Happy."
