GROW WITH HORTIKI PLANTS FOUNDER VICTORIA LEBEAUX, PHD

LEVERAGING 20+ YEARS AS A SCIENTIST AND NEARLY A DECADE OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP TO HELP YOU GET UNSTUCK & GROW

Imagine your team: energized, executing, and growing — not burned out, stuck, or grinding.

Hortiki Plants Founder, Victoria LeBeaux, spent exhausting years trying traditional advice ("meditate!" "hustle harder!"), but when she was struggling the most, those methods failed her. So she did what any good super nerd would do — put on her science hat and dug into the research.

Turns out, what worked wasn’t waiting in stillness (though rest is nice) or grinding (please, don’t). It was leveraging play to rewire the brain, using strategic execution to beat perfectionism, fueling curiosity to move forward, and building sustainable systems that don’t burn you out.

Her keynotes and workshops deliver neuroscience-backed frameworks with humor, warmth, and relatability. You’ll leave with practical tools you can use immediately to grow! (Because let’s be real — we all have bills to pay and work to get done!)

With the fun, engaging spirit of Hortiki guiding each experience, you’ll not only accomplish your goals — you’ll learn to enjoy the process.

Science meets joy. Strategy meets play. Let’s grow.

GET UNSTUCK THROUGH THE SCIENCE OF PLAY

LEARN HOW TO PUT PLAY TO WORK™ TO REWIRE YOUR BRAIN AND LIVE BETTER!

The wellness industry says meditate, sit with your grief, breathe. Dr. Victoria LeBeaux tried all of it after years of health crises and business challenges led to burnout and anxiety. But who has time to 'wait' for healing when bills are due and life won't pause?  Instead of waiting she started playing, and found play to be the secret she’d been missing. This keynote reveals the neuroscience behind why play works fast to “rewire” the brain, and gives tools your audience can use today.

GET UNSTUCK & EXECUTE!

HOW VISIONARIES, CREATIVES, AND INNOVATORS CAN GROW THEIR DREAMS AND IMPACT

You have the vision—but when you sit down to execute, you're paralyzed by the gap between where you are and where you want to be. As the Founder of Hortiki Plants, Dr. LeBeaux knows exactly what that's like and has spent almost a decade scaling Hortiki from a small table at the local farmer's market to a true social impact business that is helping families and communities grow nationwide. Get her most productive techniques to both dream bigger than you ever have and get more done! Both a visionary and an executor, she will share how she mastered the art of turning ambitious ideas into actionable step-by-step plans that get you to the finish line.

EVOLVE TO GET UNSTUCK!

HOW CURIOSITY UNLOCKS TRANSFORMATIVE GROWTH

When we feel stuck, most of us default to two options: push harder or give up. But what if that’s the wrong question entirely?

In this powerful and thought-provoking talk, Dr. Victoria LeBeaux shares how to replace the guilt, pressure, and perfectionism of “never quit” culture with science-backed curiosity and sustainable resilience. Drawing from neuroscience and her own journey through burnout, loss, and renewal, she reveals how “What if…” thinking rewires the brain, unlocks creativity, and helps you evolve through challenges — not just survive them.

You’ll leave inspired, energized, and equipped to grow with confidence — no matter what’s next.

GET UNSTUCK IN BUSINESS

PRACTICAL GUIDANCE FROM AN ENTREPRENEUR WHO’S BEEN THERE

This is a roll-up-your-sleeves, tactical session where Dr. LeBeaux gets into the practical realities of running a business—and helps you solve what you're stuck on right now.

Most business advice is either too basic (written for brand-new entrepreneurs) or too vague (inspirational but not actionable). Dr. LeBeaux goes hyper-specific: How are you selling? What software should you actually use? How do you write a job description? What do you ask a broker when looking for space? How do you negotiate loan terms?

Highly interactive and engaging, Dr. LeBeaux puts her 8+ years of experience growing a retail, education, agricultural, and manufacturing business to work to help entrepreneurs fix the real problems their businesses face today.
