Mandy Gill runs farther than most people drive in a week – and she brings that same endurance, mental stamina, and real-world toughness to the corporate leaders and teams she trains. A bestselling author, ultra-endurance athlete, and Harvard Leadership Program graduate, Mandy has built her career around a single mission: helping people stay steady, adaptable, and high-performing when conditions get hard.

After building and scaling one of the world’s most effective behavior-change apps, Hooked on Healthy Habits, Mandy has amassed one of the largest datasets on human performance, resilience, and goal-setting – tracking the habits and patterns of over 10,000 clients across the past decade. Combined with her lived experience pushing the limits of human capacity, this evidence base makes Mandy one of the most sought-after resilience experts for organizations facing rapid change and increasing pressure.

Her credibility is unmatched. Mandy has completed 100+ kilometer ultra-marathons with more than 20,000 feet of elevation gain, climbed some of the highest peaks in Nepal, and navigated extreme environments where conditions shift in seconds. She masterfully translates life-or-death decision-making from the mountains into practical frameworks leaders can use in boardrooms, manufacturing plants, virtual teams, and anyone navigating constant uncertainty.

Before becoming a recognized resilience expert, Mandy built a respected broadcast career, interviewing icons like Lady Gaga and Rihanna. Her background in media, combined with her entrepreneurial work as a tech founder and CEO, gives her a rare ability to connect with diverse audiences – from frontline teams to C-suite executives. She is also a two-time Women of Distinction nominee and a passionate advocate for leveling the playing field for women in leadership.

Mandy is the bestselling author of Reset with Resilience: A Guide to Greatness When Your Goals Go Sideways, a book that distills insights from her massive behavioral dataset and extreme-endurance experiences into a practical roadmap for turning setbacks into breakthroughs. It is the same data-backed philosophy she delivers to global organizations including the US Navy, adidas, DocuSign, TD Bank, Manulife, and many more.

Across every keynote and leadership session, Mandy blends:

● Real-world stories from extreme environments

● High-performance psychology and behavior science

● Evidence-backed tools for staying steady under pressure

● A grounded, humble, tough approach that audiences instantly trust

Her message is simple – and unforgettable:

You are more capable than you think.

Organizations bring Mandy in when they need their people to stay confident, adaptable, and effective in environments that refuse to slow down. She shows teams what resilience looks like – and exactly how to build it.

Reset With Resilience: How to Reset Quickly and Turn Setbacks Into Forward Momentum

A practical, research-backed keynote that teaches leaders and teams how to reset quickly, regain clarity, and maintain momentum when plans go sideways.

In a world where priorities shift overnight and uncertainty shows up without warning, setbacks are no longer the exception – they’re part of everyday leadership. What separates high-performing teams from struggling ones isn’t the absence of adversity; it’s the ability to reset quickly and regain forward momentum. This keynote gives audiences that reset method. Mandy draws from climbing some of the highest peaks in Nepal and around the world, along with her Harvard Leadership Program background, writing a bestselling book Reset with Resilience, and creating one of the world’s largest behavior-change datasets – more than 10,000 client journeys tracked across the past decade through the Hooked on Healthy Habits app. These insights reveal exactly why people stall during uncertainty and what allows them to restart with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Blending science with lived experience from extreme environments, Mandy teaches a practical reset framework that helps individuals and teams move from discouraged to back-in-motion – no matter what comes their way. Your audience won’t just understand resilience; they’ll know how to reset fast and turn setbacks into forward momentum.

The Resilience Advantage: How to Lead With Confidence and Clarity Through Constant Change

A leadership-focused keynote that shows how resilience is a trainable skill — and how to stay steady, decisive, and effective through constant change.

Today’s organizations are navigating nonstop change – shifting priorities, evolving expectations, and pressure that never seems to let up. Most people are expected to adapt quickly, stay focused, and perform through uncertainty…without the proper tools of how to. This keynote gives you the “how.” Mandy draws on insights from her lessons learnt in extreme environments, Harvard Leadership Program training, and research from over 10,000 behavior-change clients collected through the Hooked on Healthy Habits app she created over a decade ago. Through these combined lenses, she shows audiences that resilience is not a personality trait – it is a trainable capability that strengthens with practice. With her signature blend of grounded wisdom, lived experience, and research as a best selling author on resilience, Mandy provides audiences with tools that are both credible and immediately actionable. Mandy teaches people how to stay clear, calm, and effective when everything around them shifts. Audiences don’t just hear about resilience. They learn exactly how to lead themselves and others with confidence and clarity through constant change.

BARRISTER & SOLICITOR, CUPE
I knew Mandy would be a perfect fit for our group, as we can be a tough crowd. Mandy put a lot of energy into structuring a session that would fit our group's needs, and that was apparent. She had the room so engaged, and I can tell you I have sat through countless hours of CUPE events that did not go that direction at all (in fact, many times it goes the opposite direction). Her positive energy is contagious and empathy and genuine care for participants was readily apparent.
PRESIDENT/CEO DOMINION LENDING CENTRES
Mandy is an incredible, inspiring individual, someone who has redefined the health and wellness space not only in Canada, but in North America.. Her creative approach is different from the typical philosophies. Mandy walks the walk and talks the talk from real life experiences. She has a heart of gold, and a desire to make a positive impact in this world.
MANAGER, TRADE & DTC MARKETING, ADIDAS
Mandy is extremely hard working and gives 150% in everything she does. I will always remember meeting Mandy for the first time because she was so energetic, committed and outgoing. She greeted me with open arms the day I met, and 3 years later nothing has changed.
President, Big Star Lights
Mandy has had a profound effect on both the operations and culture of our company. Given that we are in a seasonal industry that requires an annual sprint period in the fall, burnout rates have historically been high for employees, affecting everything from productivity to team morale. With Mandy's expert guidance, we are starting 2023 with an unprecedented level of energy and motivation amongst our staff which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on our growth and bottom line.
VP of Marketing
Mandy's energy and professionalism is top notch. She owned the stage like it was her second home, and at an event of 1000+ attendees this takes a magnitude of skill and passion. Mandy feels like an extended member of the DLCG family, and I can’t thank her enough for being part of this memorable event with us.
