Bio
Dr. Heiss is a stress expert dedicated to transforming our fears into fuel we can use through her Fear(less) Stress Formula. Her research has been designated “transformative” by the National Science Foundation.
As a 2x author (Springboard, and Instinct), founder and CEO of the leadership 360-review mobile application, icueity, and highly sought-after professional speaker, Rebecca has found her calling in helping others recognize the power of using stress as a springboard to reach our highest performance, purpose and passion.
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 Fear(less) Stress Formula to transform fear 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 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. With surprising humor and palpable energy, no matter if Dr. Heiss is delivering virtually or on stage, she wins over her audiences with interactive, inspiring, and timely takeaways.
When she’s not on a stage, she is happiest when hiking or surfing with her two spoiled rotten dogs Guinness and Murphy.

This presentation is perfect for leaders and teams:- Trying to battle increasing levels of stress, burnout, and disengagement
- Ready to return to performance growth

- Wanting to alleviate stress, but wary of the traditional “stress management” techniques that only add MORE “to do’s” (and stress) to their plates
The audience will leave able to:
- Understand the biological root of their stress response and recalibrate that response to work for their benefit in the modern world
- Effectively engage with their fears and reframe them as energy that can optimize performance and growt
