I’ve utilized Todd as both a keynote speaker and emcee/moderator on multiple occasions…and will continue to do so moving forward! Not only does he go “above and beyond” learning everything he can about our clients, attendees, and sponsors, Todd also has an amazing ability to think on his feet and stay calm whenever we need to pivot to a Plan B (which is inevitable in my business). I also greatly appreciate Todd’s seemingly innate gift of making everyone feel included, relaxed, and valued!

Since 2008, Todd Whitthorne has partnered with the Texas Association of School Administrators to change the lives of school leaders in Texas. When school district superintendents and their executive leadership teams face significant professional challenges, Todd helps TASA members see that investing in their personal well-being is paramount to their short-term and long-term success at work and in life. In short, lives are being changed. Through our various TASA programs, Todd encourages, challenges, and inspires leaders to make necessary changes to help ensure they are “Fit to Lead.” I have heard countless stories of TASA members who are significantly healthier in all aspects of their lives because Todd helped to change their thinking. I am grateful to count Todd Whitthorne as a friend and partner in the vital work of helping leaders perform at the highest levels – to help each one fulfill their full potential.

Todd Whitthorne left our group wanting for more. His presentation had our clinicians asking how soon he could come back! It is rare when someone can get a group that excited. He is an engaging speaker who truly knows his information. We are looking forward to hearing him speak again!

Dear Todd, I just want to thank you for your continued support of Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children! Your presentations to our over 800 staff and 800 volunteers on multiple occasions have been both uplifting and life-changing for me and many of the participants. You always do a terrific job of customizing your presentation to accommodate the different groups you serve. You make a difference in the lives of a lot of people, and we are all indebted to you for this!

Todd holds audiences in the palm of his hand. His delivery, grasp of his material, stage presence, moment by moment contact with his audience and just his overall classy personae make him one our country’s greatest presenters. I have been both Todd’s student and his host for several presentations within my profession and I tell all who listen, Todd Whitthorne will make any program chair look like a mastermind!
Larry J. Cook, D.M.D.
Past President, American Academy of Dental Practice Administration
Todd did a great job and his message was very well received. Todd spoke for a little over an hour including Q & A, which is usually more than our chapter members will sit for, but they wouldn’t let him stop. We had one of our biggest turnouts of the year!

Mr. Whitthorne, I attended the Power of a Healthy Woman Conference today and was privileged to hear you speak. As a senior Kinesiology student at the University of North Texas hoping to teach physical education next year, I was COMPLETELY INSPIRED! Pardon my caps, but it made me feel like shouting to everyone I saw as I left the conference. The information you presented is so vital for our society and I wish they could feel the urgency I feel, from listening to you, to get moving and to take responsibility of their personal well-being. Thank you for inspiring me!

When it was very apparent that our large staff and members of our leadership team were struggling with the burnout caused by the challenges and stress of the last several years in our industry, Todd’s message was the obvious choice. He knows his stuff and also highlights great resources for those who want to know more. Our leaders and staff left with the knowledge and inspiration to take control of their own wellness, and as an organization we have incentivized and recognized that all year long. I now see people who feel empowered and have the tools to do right for their own wellness so that they can better serve our students and each other.

When I need a well-educated, engaging, gifted communicator on a topic that people have “heard” but not been able to act on, I call Todd Whitthorne. He takes topics and weaves a presentation with analogies and stories that resonate on a personal level. Whether it’s new graduate students or seasoned psychologists, he never ceases to amaze me at his ability to adjust the information and style to the audience. I just have to be prepared to continue the conversation over the next few hours and days. That’s why I’m so confident in his ability. People continue to think and talk about the things he presents. Nothing but gratitude and admiration.

Dear Todd, Just a short note to thank you for the great job you did presenting to my group. Excellent content and an amazing delivery. You far exceeded my goals, in fact you were amazing! It is nice to be touched by people that truly love their family. Thank you so much, Todd! Very sincerely,

One of my last responsibilities as Past President of the Texas Dietetic Association was to secure a speaker for our TDA annual conference that was this week. Todd spoke Sunday evening at our pre-opening session dinner on “Healthy Habits—Practice What You Teach” to a crowd of about 300 registered dietitians. I cannot tell you how proud I am. Some of the comments were, “Have him back!”, “That’s the 3rd time I’ve heard Todd and I could hear him again”, “Let’s clone him!”, “Tell Todd he was the best!”, “His message needs to be out there everywhere”, “Todd should have been keynote for opening session”, “Fabulous!”, “Best speaker I’ve heard.” Todd spoke Sunday; I was in Austin until Wednesday and was still getting compliments from attendees on what a wonderful speaker he was!

Todd was great! His message connected perfectly with our audience, and it was delivered with passion, humor, and authority.

After hearing Todd speak to a group of CEO’s in New Orleans, I invited him to address my company in Baton Rouge. His message of “Know your Numbers, Knowledge is Power” is critical since in order to have a healthy business you need healthy employees. I recommend Todd as a speaker without hesitation!

We had a great evening with Todd. We could have spent three more hours with him. His passion and enthusiasm had us all wanting to go workout and eat a healthy meal. He received VERY high marks on our evaluation forms. We would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to get the message across that exercise and good nutrition are essential for a healthy life (and both are so easy to do!).
