Lora Cheadle

A former attorney turned leadership wellness coach, TEDx speaker, and award-winning author, Lora helps high-achieving professionals and forward-thinking organizations break free from exhaustion, rediscover their purpose, and reignite their confidence, enthusiasm, and joy.

Lora’s passion is deeply personal. After burning out in her high-powered legal career and navigating the devastation of personal betrayal, she realized that burnout isn’t just about overwork—it’s about systemic and emotional betrayals that erode self-worth and agency. That’s why she created the FUEL UP Burnout Recovery Method—a groundbreaking approach that goes beyond self-care and productivity hacks to address the hidden forces keeping high-achievers stuck in cycles of depletion.

Blending her expertise in law, trauma-informed coaching, somatic therapy, and leadership strategy, Lora empowers her clients to: Identify the root causes of their disengagement, Reset their nervous systems, and Rebuild their energy from the inside out.

Through her dynamic, insightful, and interactive speaking style, Lora challenges the conventional burnout narrative. She doesn’t just tell you to “do less” or “set better boundaries”—she equips you with the mindset shifts and practical tools to reclaim your energy, your identity, and your life. Whether she’s guiding professionals in Step into Your Moxie® Speak Up & Influence workshops, coaching one-on-one, leading off-sites and retreats, or delivering keynote addresses that leave audiences buzzing, her message lands deep.

Ready to transform exhaustion into empowerment? Whether you’re an individual looking to reignite your spark or an organization seeking to energize your workforce, Lora Cheadle is the coach and speaker who will help you rise, reign, and thrive.

Signature Keynote

From Burned Out to Fueled Up - A New Paradigm for Engagement and Wellbeing

Instead of leaning in, many high-achieving professionals are burning out, walking away, or “quiet quitting.” But the shocking truth about burnout is that it’s often not just exhaustion—it’s betrayal that breeds overwhelm, disillusionment, and disengagement. When your dedication isn’t valued, your efforts go unnoticed, or your integrity is compromised, burnout isn’t just physical—it’s deeply personal. Until we address these hidden betrayals—personal, professional, and systemic—burnout will keep even the most driven professionals stuck in cycles of depletion.

In this powerful presentation, lawyer-turned-life and leadership coach Lora Cheadle reveals why traditional burnout solutions fail high performers and how to FUEL UP—her proven method for reigniting enthusiasm, restoring self-trust, and reclaiming purpose without sacrificing success.

By the end of this session, audience members will have the tools to identify, prevent, and heal the root causes of burnout so they can stay resilient, energized, and fully engaged at the highest levels of their careers and lives.

This keynote will help attendees

  • Identify and heal the root causes of burnout—not just overwork, but the deeper betrayals that drain energy and motivation—so they can sustain a FUELED UP life.
  • Reconnect to intrinsic motivation and shift from seeking to please, conform, and overperform to owning their worth, setting boundaries, and leading with confidence.
  • Examine the impact of external expectations on career and life satisfaction and learn to advocate powerfully for what truly matters—without guilt or fear.

"Lora is a brilliant speaker. She is an open hearted truth-teller on a mission to transform burnout. Her message is honest and vulnerable. Lora offered me new ways to see how I've betrayed myself over the years, in small, not usually conscious, yet deeply impactful ways. Your invitation to Accept Unconditionally was life changing. I am now more present to my inner dialog, and to the tone I hold towards myself. By accepting myself unconditionally I also found new ways to be more self-compassionate, which has positively impacted the dynamics of my relationships with my kids and my spouse. Showing up with more acceptance made me patient with myself and I can honestly say it changed the way I show up for myself. For this I thank you from the bottom of my heart."
