Rakhi Shastri

Rakhi Shastri

Rakhi Shastri is a dynamic Transformational Speaker, award-winning Toastmasters champion, life coach, and author of Loud Echo of Silent Perseverance. With over two decades of experience in leadership and personal development, she empowers individuals to break free from limiting beliefs, embrace resilience, and cultivate success-driven thinking.

Her journey—one of perseverance, loss, and profound transformation—led to a defining realization: True empowerment begins within. As a dedicated single mother and accomplished business owner, Rakhi spent years building her career, only to face an unexpected turning point in 2021 that challenged everything she knew. In losing her business, trust in others, and belief in herself, she uncovered the most powerful lesson of all—To take care of others, you must be able to take care of you first, and success is not about doing more, but about being yourself.

Determined to rebuild, Rakhi mastered mind-transforming techniques that restored her confidence and propelled her to achieve more success than ever before. Now, she shares these strategies, along with the most critical life lessons she learned over two decades, with individuals ready for meaningful growth, guiding them to release old patterns, reconnect with their authentic selves, and realign their mindset with their purpose.

As an empathetic leader and relationship strategist, Rakhi bridges the gap between personal fulfillment and career success, helping others step into their highest potential. Through her transformational approach, she teaches resilience, belief-building, and self-discovery—showing that when we elevate our inner world, life itself becomes effortless.

"If there’s one thing that can change everything around you, it’s to focus on YOU."

With her unique insights, storytelling, and unwavering commitment to growth, Rakhi inspires individuals to step into their power, embrace their purpose, and create lasting impact in every aspect of life.

Breanne Kiefner

Breanne Kiefner

Breanne Kiefner is the founder of Root Adventures, an anti-bucket list travel company dedicated to creating transformative, mindful travel experiences. Her approach to travel is deeply personal—shaped by a childhood marked by food insecurity, instability, and undiagnosed dyslexia. These early challenges instilled in her a lifelong sense of curiosity, resilience, and a nontraditional approach to learning and connection.

Breanne began her career in hospitality in 2000, working her way up from housekeeping to event planning at a large hotel. Her introduction to adventure travel came when she sold all her belongings and embarked on a six-month backpacking journey through Latin America—her first trip outside North America. It was on that journey that Breanne began to find healing through the communities she encountered.

Upon returning to the U.S., she committed herself to the adventure travel industry, with a mission to share the restorative and perspective-shifting power of travel. Through Root Adventures, Breanne invites others to step off the beaten path and into meaningful connection—with themselves, with others, and with the world.

Founder | Project Manager | Menstrual Equity & Gender Innovation Advocate

I’m all about breaking norms, driving impact, and making real change happen.

We’re talking real inclusion, real innovation, and real opportunities. With a background in project management and a love for storytelling and strategy, I bridge the gap between tech, advocacy, and entrepreneurship to create solutions that actually work.

I speak on:

Menstrual Equity: Beyond Pads & Tampons—Building Sustainable Change
