Women in Breakbulk Breakfast Sessions

Keynote: Sustaining High Performance Under Pressure: The Science of Personal Energy

What happens in your brain and body when you lose focus, feel exhausted, or hit “brain fog” during high-stakes work? Unlike cargo ships running on bunker fuel, humans run on something far more complex, but more trainable. Join Vivien Puppa Kocsis, award-winning Harvard-educated scientist and Guinness World Record endurance athlete, for a science-backed look at how high-performing women sustain energy under pressure. Featuring a live brainwave demo, this session explores the physiological factors and practical advice that help women maintain energy in demanding environments.
