"Kristel was an outstanding virtual speaker—confident, engaging, and thoughtful in her delivery. She incorporated interactive elements such as live polls, which helped create a more personal and engaging experience for a virtual audience. Our attendees left the session with practical strategies to manage energy, set boundaries, reset their mindset. Working with Kristel Bauer and her team was a great experience from start to finish. Her team was highly organized and responsive leading up to the event, which made planning seamless. We would happily work with Kristel again."
“It was our pleasure to invite Kristel to our campus to conduct a specialized training session for our international Immunology team. The goal was to equip our Marketing teams with powerful, sustainable habits designed to enhance their work-life well-being while maintaining peak performance under tight deadlines...Kristel is, quite simply, an outstanding speaker. Her presentation was immediately engaging, making her recommendations deeply motivating for our diverse, international audience. The content, focused around seven powerful habits, was exceptional. Crucially, all of her recommendations are evidence-based, which immediately resonated with our team. The habits shared are highly actionable and designed for immediate implementation, allowing our team members to start applying changes the very next day. I wholeheartedly recommend Kristel to any leader seeking a method for improving the delicate balance between performance and team well-being. Her unique approach provides the practical tools necessary for teams to thrive in demanding, high-stakes environments.”
“Kristel Bauer is a gift. I have worked in the public/private sector for nearly 40 years and believe she is the best Keynote conference speaker I've ever encountered. It is not an overstatement to describe her style and message as “life changing.”
“I had the opportunity to hear Kristel's inspirational message at the Vision Source Exchange and WOW! As a fellow heath care professional, she was able to perfectly blend real life challenges of knowing yourself with science to help me really understand my own challenges in a way that shows me I can make changes to bring more happiness into my own life. Because of Kristel's message, I will be a stronger leader of my team, a more compassionate doctor to my patients and, most importantly, a better husband and dad. How do you thank someone for that? My advice is that if you have an opportunity to bring Kristel Bauer to your team, you should take it.”
“I really appreciated having Kristel into the office to present to us. Her ability to provide real world examples of the concepts she was presenting made the session immediately relevant and one of the most engaging to date.”
“Kristel recently presented to a group of up-and-coming executive leaders in our organization on Executive Wellbeing. Her passion and energy relating to the topics of mindfulness, health, stress management and self-care were invigorating and insightful. Kristel was a joy to work with and I highly recommend her for your next corporate wellness event.”
"I recently had the pleasure of attending the Louisville Business Women's First Awards where Kristel Bauer delivered an inspiring talk that resonated deeply with many of us in attendance. Her approach was both refreshing and enlightening. Kristel did not just talk about the usual "tips and tricks" but delved into how we can nurture a profound connection. What made Kristel's talk especially impactful was her ability to connect with the audience through personal anecdotes and evidence-based practices. She provided actionable insights that I, along with many others, found immediately applicable. Kristel's message left a lasting imprint on my outlook. It was not just another lecture, but a compelling call to action to rethink and reprioritize what truly matters in our lives."
“It was an absolute pleasure working with Kristel earlier this year. Beyond her fantastic credentials, her immediate care, kindness, and dedication to working with us to create a meaningful event for our company was outstanding. The event was "Reframe Your Internal Story for More Happiness and Fulfillment” and the feedback was excellent. Kristel is inspiring, thoughtful, and was a perfect addition to our Women's History Month celebration. I hope to work with Kristel in the future and certainly enjoy her daily posts for an added boost of confidence and energy to my day!”
Kristel Bauer's keynote at the Louisville Business Women First Luncheon was incredibly empowering!

“Kristel recently joined us at our national women's management and mentorship event, kicking us off with an inspiring keynote about Achieving Peak Performance and Redefining Work/Life Balance that resonated with all the women in the room, leaving them feeling both encouraged and motivated. Kristel's authenticity exudes from her on stage and makes you feel like you are having a conversation with your best friend all while learning powerful tools and techniques to use in your personal and professional life.”
“From the second I met Kristel, she displayed the perfect combination of confidence, warmth and overall professionalism. Kristel arrived early and was extremely prepared! When it was time to hit the stage, Kristel did exactly what we hoped for and more – she owned the room and it was very obvious that the attendees were extremely engaged. We hope that we have the opportunity to work with Kristel again, we highly recommend her!”
