UNMUTED:
Come Alive at Work
Self-Leadership & Workplace Performance Expert
After being blindsided by burnout and a pickup truck, Rachel knows what it’s like to lose your spark and reignite it. That’s why she’s on a mission to activate clarity, confidence, and courage in people to help them come alive—energized, engaged, and bringing the best of who they are to what they do every day.
The biggest barrier to performance at work isn’t a lack of talent or ability.
It’s doubt and fear.
Fear of judgment. Fear of failure. Fear of being a burden.
So people stay quiet in meetings, second-guess their ideas, avoid hard conversations, and stop advocating for themselves.
And the cost is real:
Less innovation. Lower engagement. Burnout. Lost leadership potential.
If you want a culture where people speak up, step up, and come alive at work, your team needs more than motivation. They need a transformational experience that helps them see their strengths clearly and contribute at their highest level.
That’s where I come in.
Whether you’re planning a conference, launching a new initiative, or developing your leaders and teams, I help people turn clarity into confidence, confidence into courage, and courage into meaningful contribution that drives performance.
My keynotes don’t just motivate; they activate. Through powerful stories, real reflection, and practical tools, people leave with language, belief, and momentum to speak up, step up, and come alive at work.
Why does this matter?
According to Gallup:
Only 1 in 5 employees are satisfied with their workplace
Nearly 6 in 10 are psychologically disengaged
And over half are actively looking for a new job
But here’s the opportunity: Teams with engaged employees see 23% higher profit. Real engagement happens when people have clarity about who they are, confidence in their strengths, and the courage to contribute. That’s when people come alive and organizations thrive.

TESTIMONIALS
I’m Rachel Druckenmiller.
For 13 years, I led national wellbeing + employee engagement initiatives in the corporate world. Today, I help organizations and leaders bring their people back to life at work by activating the clarity, confidence, and courage that drive performance, engagement, and impact.
Recognized by Smart Meetings as a Best of the Stage Speaker, Forbes as a Next1000 Honoree, and Workforce Magazine as a 40 Under 40 Game Changer, I’ve spent nearly 20 years helping thousands of professionals stop holding back and start showing up fully. Too many capable, high-potential people are burned out, checked out, or playing small; and it’s costing them and their companies.
Through energizing keynotes and interactive trainings, I help your people reconnect to their voice, activate clarity and agency, and take meaningful action, so they speak up with confidence, lead with conviction, and contribute with purpose. I create experiences that are thought-provoking, immediately actionable, and deeply human so your event doesn't just inspire, it transforms.
