Speaking | Lanta Carroll

I speak about the power of mindful, intentional living to help audiences believe in their capacity to live expansively and abundantly

KEYNOTE

Busy Isn't Working

Reclaiming time, presence, and what actually matters

This keynote is a great fit for: meaning making, boundary setting, mindfulness skills, burnout prevention, creating better work/life balance, improving self-care, and intentional time management

Let’s be clear: If your life is full but you aren’t fulfilled, busy isn’t working.

Busy culture promises success and satisfaction, but often delivers burnout and disconnection. Many of us are moving nonstop, meeting expectations, and doing all the “right” things—yet still feeling rushed, disconnected, or exhausted.

What if there was another way? What if simple, intentional shifts in how we live and relate to our time could lead to deeper presence, calm, and fulfillment?

TAKEAWAYS:

Identify what’s filling your life—but draining you.
An invitation to move from overwhelm toward mindful, intentional living.
Tools for protecting time and energy in ways that reflect your values.
Support for setting healthier boundaries with more ease and self-trust.
Build sustainable rhythms that support your well-being.
A renewed sense of presence, clarity, and meaning.
