But neuroscience tells a more complete story. Mindset matters, yet it is our habits that determine whether that mindset can actually hold under pressure. In this keynote, Heather explores where stress comes from and why sustained performance depends on how cognitive load, recovery and behavioural patterns are managed day to day. Drawing on behavioural psychology and neuroscience, she explains how small, often unnoticed habits either reinforce clarity and composure, or quietly drain capacity over time. This is not about hype, slogans or wellbeing trends. It is a grounded, evidence-led session for professionals who shoulder responsibility and want resilience that genuinely holds under pressure. Delegates will leave energised and informed, with sharper insight into their own patterns, and practical ways to align mindset and habits so performance is sustained, not strained.🕑: 10:30 AM - 11:00 AMRefreshment Break🕑: 11:00 AM - 12:30 PMMind Over MatterHost: Antony HoldsworthInfo: Rooted in the theme Mind Over Matter, we'll demonstrate how shifting your mindset can unlock confidence, clarity, and courage in both business and life.
