Case Kenny’s MANTRA keynote (60 minutes) offers a refreshing and practical approach to optimism, equal parts education and interaction.

Case opens by introducing a powerful concept: our emotional vocabulary - the way we speak to ourselves, the specific words we use, and how this underrated focus is the key to unlocking genuine optimism in life.

From there, Case breaks down the four energetic categories of self-talk, using relatable examples (feeling stuck, anxious, behind, or like an underachiever) to show how we can honor our emotions without letting them define us. Drawing from psychology research, his best-selling books, and viral podcast insights, he demonstrates how language can shift our mindset.

After laying this foundation, Case guides attendees through an immersive, hands-on session of written reflection. Over ~30 minutes, participants handwrite reflections to carefully crafted prompts that help them reframe their self-talk and rewrite their inner narratives.

The session culminates in attendees crafting their own personal mantra - a clear, empowering phrase rooted in optimism and self-belief. Attendees leave with:

A deeper understanding of how language and mindset interact.

A practical framework for creating optimism.

Research-backed tools to navigate stress, comparison, and overthinking.

A personalized mantra to reinforce clarity.
