MY MOST-REQUESTED KEYNOTES ARE BUILT ON one FRAMEWORK:
PRIORITIZE
Make your mental health a priority.
Plan
Heath-promoting activities don't just happen. You have to plan for it. You have to make time for it.
Practice
All practice means is focused attention and repetition. It's not a one-and-done deal. You need to "practice" health-promoting activities, and then practice them regularly.
Prosper
You will prosper when you make your mental health a priority, and then practice them regularly.
mental health matters.
Stress, anxiety, and depression affect daily functioning and life satisfaction. Mental health has a huge impact on the ability to learn, emotional wellbeing, physical health, relationships, and self-reported success.
"An alarming proportion of adults reported that stress has an impact on their day-to-day functioning, with more than a quarter (27%) saying that most days they are so stressed they can’t function."
I’m teaching tools to make that number go down.

Kind Words from Event Planners and Participants
""In a casual way we all know about gratitude - we see it on signs, in messaging, etc. But what Peggy has done is to delve deeply into what it really is, and she provides different ways to look at it that I don't think we normally consider. That's what’s so interesting about her presentation. I think when you can present a topic and have people walk away feeling impacted, then it's time to ‘drop the mic’ and enjoy the rest of the day.""
"“Over the last several months, we have been intentional with our leaders sharing our organization’s core values – Genuine Passion & Genuine Gratitude. We invited Dr. Peggy DeLong to present on gratitude in our Energy & Time Management session of our Leadership Development program. We could not have asked for a better speaker to set the tone of our two-day leadership session. Dr. Peggy’s message was heartfelt and inspiring to everyone in the room. The exercises of gratitude were well explained, and our leaders walked away with practical tips on how to apply gratitude more consistently into their daily routines. It is energizing to show gratitude towards others and be intentional with how you will approach the day. Dr. Peggy was a clear favorite from this leadership session!”"
""We were delighted to have Dr. DeLong present at our organization. Those that attended her workshop on gratitude shared that they were not only inspired by Dr. Delong's story but loved that she shared 5 simple daily exercises that they could start using that day. Dr. DeLong was an engaging speaker and a pleasure to work with.""
"“Dr. DeLong recently gave a lecture on gratitude to the Women's Health Philanthropy Council and general public at Morristown Medical Center. Dr. DeLong is an excellent speaker and her message was more than well received by everyone in the audience. Nothing but kudos and plaudits for a simple message that we all need to remember and utilize in our daily lives. If you are thinking about having Dr. DeLong as a guest speaker, don't think any longer. Just do it. You will not be disappointed.”"
"I attended an interactive presentation on Finding Joy and Cultivating Happiness in Everyday Living. I found that Dr. Peggy was able to create a comfortable environment for tapping into some uncomfortable yet common struggles that most of us remain silent about. Dr. Peggy offers clarity and the tools to help you free yourself from the quicksand that may be pulling you down. I walked away feeling encouraged that I would be able to use these tools to make some desired changes for myself."
"Peggy DeLong was inspiring and informative at the same time. She’s in a word: brilliant."

"Dr. Peggy DeLong gave a powerful presentation! Her very welcome talk on five daily exercises in gratitude combined her professional expertise, polished speaking style, and a great deal of heart.
