Speaker, Emcee, & Embodiment-Based Leadership Coach
Main Stage Speaker
Danielle Gertner is a speaker, emcee, and embodiment-based leadership coach known for delivering raw truth that moves people from motivation into embodied confidence and real-world ownership. She helps high-performing leaders stop outsourcing their power and start leading their lives, businesses, and communities with self-trust, clarity, and emotional resilience. Danielle's core philosophy is simple and uncompromising: Ownership is the new leadership, and your life was not meant to be rented; it was meant to be owned. Her work lives at the intersection of mindset, embodiment, and leadership, blending tools from NLP, somatic practices, habit transformation, and nervous system regulation to create transformation that lasts beyond inspiration. Danielle doesn't teach people how to perform confidence; she teaches them how to build it from the inside out. Danielle is the founder of Warrior Women ATX, Austin's most empowering community for women, and the creator of multiple transformational programs, including the Own Your Shit Self Mastery Program and the Radical Confidence Blueprint. She is also THE Queen of Hype and emcee for HYROX North America, where she has energized and inspired hundreds of thousands of athletes across the country. Whether she's on stage, behind a mic, or leading a room through movement and conversation, Danielle creates spaces where people feel safe to tell the truth, brave enough to choose themselves, and supported enough to take radical responsibility for the lives they are building.
