45 min speech, 15 min Q&A

Katie understands elite performance and the drive to do the extraordinary. At 15 years old, Katie Hoff made her first Olympic team. How did she do it? In the end, it boiled down to a very simple, yet effective formula.  She came up with 5 standards that she followed to a "T."   Standards that allowed her to break American and World Records, win Olympic
medals, get back up after the lowest of lows and become a best selling author and successful entrepreneur.  

 

Now, she wants to help you accomplish YOUR big goals - using her secret sauce.  Becoming an Olympic athlete was Katie’s goal. What is YOUR big goal?  It could be anything:

​

  • Running a marathon. 

  • Crushing sales targets. 

  • Getting that big promotion. 

  • Becoming the best parent, partner or friend.

  • Achieving your highest level of fitness. 

​

As long as the goal is of utmost importance to you, it is fair game.  

​

But it has to be a goal you feel DRIVEN to attain.  It must be a "need" vs simply a "want." 

 

Katie's 5 standards will give you the ability to accomplish that goal and achieve the most extraordinary version of yourself.
Katie shares her wisdom through captivating stories filled with humor, humility, honesty and vulnerability. The audience is left with a sense of 
motivation, fresh perspective and ultimately clear and actionable standards to apply to their own big goal.


Katie wants this year to be extraordinary for you - join her to find out how.
