Energy NOW!
Let's face it, we're busier than we've ever been, and when life gets hectic we drop important resilience practices like exercise, healthy eating, sleep and even fun – the very activities that give us energy to battle day-to-day challenges. In this practical and entertaining session Michelle Cederberg wants to help you get ENERGY NOW! She teaches you how to break through fatigue and stress, feel better in your life, and be more productive in your work through a 'small steps' approach that really works. Full of hilarious stories, anecdotes ad innovative strategies, Michelle's session will change your perspective on how to recharge your life. It's impossible to expect great things from yourself or your team if you are tired or burned out so why not boost your health and energy as a first line of defense? This session shows you how.
Exposing the Myth of Life Balance
75% of Canadians don't believe that work-life balance is possible. We're working more than ever, spending less time with our friends and family, and inevitably watching our health and happiness drift away. So maybe it's true? Since we spend more time looking for balance than we do experiencing it, perhaps success comes from approaching life balance with a new strategy? In this session Michelle exposes the myth of work-life balance and reveals the real secret to better success. With Michelle's humour and 'start small' approach you can find more time for the things that matter, and learn practical and realistic tips for moving toward better balance.
Stress Defense
It is estimated that 50-75% of all people who visit a doctor do so for psychosomatic disorders – illnesses that originate in the mind and manifest in physical ailments. Stress is a leading cause! Our 'stress generation' is so used to living with stress that it doesn't occur to us that we don't have to! Join Michelle as she presents her viewpoints on the physical impact of stress on the body, how we create needless stress for ourselves, and what we can do to minimize it. She'll talk about how your reactions to events can impact your stress levels and provides you with her practical 6 step 'stress defense'.
Exercise Less for Success
Exercise less? It goes against everything you've ever heard about exercise doesn't it? If 'conventional wisdom' has failed you on the fitness front – if you've battled your exercise demons long enough, perhaps it's time to consider a different approach?
Michelle has over 17 years of experience as a personal trainer, educator, and fitness coach. She knows that success in fitness requires time and effort, but also realizes that most people simply don't have the time to take care of themselves the way they should ... so they don't. How can we solve the problem of inactivity if we keep attacking it with the same ineffective solutions? If you knew better would you do better? In this innovative session Michelle reminds you that it's not laziness or lack of willingness that stops fitness progress – it's unrealistic scheduling and grandiose expectations. You can experience fitness success through realistic planning, and a 'start small' approach that makes you wonder why you didn't think of it sooner. Prioritize your health and longevity by finally fitting in fitness! This session shows you how.
But I've Never Climbed Everest?!
Success is a personal journey that shouldn't be measured against the accomplishments of others. You are meant to be whatever you dream of becoming regardless of what those around you might think, or the barriers that you have put up for yourself. Michelle defines 'the small thinker' using humorous personal examples, and then helps you find your own Everest through practical 'start small' strategies. Michelle shares her ordinary success story to shed some light on why we put up barriers to getting to where we really want to be. You'll relate to the stories of her day-to-day struggles, and laugh at her honest look at fear, motivation, and in the end ... empowerment. The most accomplished world adventurers, company CEO's, artists, writers, and entrepreneurs all started small ... so what's stopping you?
If Your Life Sucks It's Your Fault:
A Provocative Poke at Personal Responsibility
Michelle Cederberg is a master of self-deprecating humour. In her dynamic presentation, If Your Life Sucks, It’s Your Fault, she lays it on the line. It's true, personal responsibility isn't always easy to embrace. And when things aren't going your way with work, health, money - even relationships, it's much easier to point the finger at other people and circumstances to lay blame, but where will that get you?
In this eye-opening, laugh-out-loud session, Michelle takes a fresh and contentious look at the things we do that hold us back from experiencing success in all aspects of our lives.
She talks about the main ways we avoid responsibility for the aspects of our lives that may suck; procrastination, playing the blame game, refusing to take charge, blindly following rather than leading, keeping up with the Joneses, not thinking before acting, keeping up bad habits. She addresses the challenges you may have with her 'It’s Your Fault' theory through discussion and personal stories.
Michelle reminds audience members of the power each person has to change their life for the better. She shares ways to squarely face reality and to fully embrace positive change. Her presentation, delivered in either keynote or workshop form or both, will teach participants that: "Your life need not suck anymore!"
By adopting even one of the principles she promotes in her presentation you will begin to view your challenges with fresh eyes and raise your sights to a bigger life. Prepare to chuckle and change your viewpoint on personal responsibility. "Unsuck your life and have fun doing it."

Michelle closed our two day Health Canada Admin conference with her 'Exposing the Myth of Life Balance' keynote. She was masterful at gently taking charge of the room without a lot of time to do so. I enjoyed her personal approach: sharing her stories and the highs and lows along the way. She is a great story teller (and comic if I might add). Many of our staff listed her session as the highlight of our two day event. I look forward to working with Michelle again soon.
–Health Canada
Michelle's presentation was humourous, energetic and interactive, and really gave our team practical advice and food for thought. She spent quite a bit of time researching our organization as well as the challenges we face and added a lot of value to our conference!
