Working out the chemistry

Overview

Forget the typical inspirational 'wellness' keynote. You're not getting a soft-focus spa retreat; you're getting a strategic, brain upgrade for your life and space. As a functional and restorative medicine expert, I don't just lecture on well-being; I deliver the clinical blueprint for peak healing and performance. My specialty lies in the radical, data-driven intersection of neurology, architecture, and design. This isn't theoretical feel-good content; it's a proprietary methodology for influencing the built environment - from clinics to hospitals to your own bedroom - that are scientifically engineered to promote health and healing.

About

Kelly's ability to illuminate the molecular misadventures that lead to disease is what makes her special - proving time and again that a splash of nerdy, with a big dash of passion, goes a long way. She thrives at taking complex information and delivering it to audiences of all sizes and backgrounds in a way that promotes understanding and take-away applications. She has lectured all around the world as a keynote speaker, invited session speaker, workshop presenter, and small group facilitation.

Dr. Olson received her Master of Science degree in Exercise Physiology from the University of North Dakota, and her PhD in Pharmacology & Therapeutics (with a focus in Molecular NeuroPharmacology) from the University of Manitoba. If you know these campuses, although beautiful, you'll wonder if Dr. Olson was born in the snow!
