Presentation Topics

Unlocking Your Best Self Through Plant-Based Nutrition – “I want to eat and feel better, but I just don’t know how to do it!” We all know the refrain. The United States is the most prosperous nation on the planet, and yet we’ve never been more sick. Heart disease, obesity, diabetes and cancer are modern day plagues, killing us by the millions. Swimming in escalating health care costs, families and corporate America are desperate to find a sustainable solution to improve individual and workforce health. But how? The truth is, the solution has been staring us in the face all along. Over the course of this 70-minute keynote, Rich will inspire you with his personal story of redemptive health, educate you with the science behind good nutrition, and leave you with the tips, tools and strategies to follow in his footsteps.

Living Your Authentic Life – “I feel stuck in a life I didn’t consciously choose – how can I change?” Too many of us are living lives of quiet desperation. Locked in a habitrail life without the keys to escape. But freedom isn’t just possible, it’s our mandate. In this compelling talk that merges Rich’s personal journey with tangible and powerful tips and takeaways, Audiences will be left inspired to delve deep within; and empowered to embark on a journey of self-discovery with the tools to unlock and unleash the best, most authentic version of ourselves.

The Plantpower Revolution Is Now – Talking about food is personal. Right up there with religion and politics. And with so many fad diets and conflicting information about nutrition at our fingertips, it’s enough to cause vertigo in even the most discerning consumer. But what we put in our mouths has ramifications that extend well beyond personal preference. We are in the midst of a health care crisis of unprecedented proportions that has our economy stalled. Meanwhile, our planet is dying, teetering on ecological disaster. The biggest contributor to these problematic times? Our industrialized system of animal agriculture — indisputably the single largest contributor to every known environmental ill known to human kind including water scarcity, deforestation, land use, species extinction, the destabilization of communities and world hunger. The world’s obsession with an animal-centric diet is not only killing us, it’s an environmental disaster that is polluting our atmosphere and oceans, depleting our resources, obliterating species and destroying the Earth at an alarming rate of speed. But there is a solution. And it’s simple. Adopting a plant-based lifestyle is the optimal solution to be healthy, stay healthy and raise healthy, conscious children while simultaneously fulfilling our collective responsibility as consumers, parents and stewards of the planet.

The Plantpower Athlete – Collective wisdom is that “vegan” and “athlete” cannot co-exist. But this is pure nonsense. In this illuminating talk, Rich reveals the truth behind nutrition, the tactics used by conglomerate food manufacturers to dupe and confuse consumers and sets the record straight – not only can you succeed athletically on a plant-based diet, it is the optimal protocol for maximum performance.

Investing In the Journey – The most popular meme of the decade just might be the hack. Hack your diet, hack your fitness, hack your job, hack your wife. But when did a term so historically pejorative suddenly become aspirational. In this short 15-minute, TED Talk-type discourse, Rich launches a plea to forget short-cuts and our insatiable drive for instant gratification. An appeal to not only slow down, but to invest in the journey. An inspirational and illuminating look at the insanity that drives us away from the goals, success and life satisfaction we so desperately seek.

Workshops & Tutorials – Rich (along with his wife Julie) are also available for nutritional and athletic oriented workshops to compliment keynote appearances or as stand-alone gatherings. Subjects include:

Event Organizers Share Their Experience

 “Rich Roll absolutely delivers as a speaker. He speaks with passion and clarity and is a consummate pro.”

Jason Wachob, Founder and CEO, MindBodyGreen

“The response [to Rich’s keynote] was overwhelming to say the least. We had over 500 people pre register for the event… Rich did an amazing job and was a major hit in the city [Burlington, ON]. Rich’s message was one of the most inspiring, engaging and interesting talks many have ever heard! In fact, months later, everywhere I go in town people are still talking about the “Rich Roll event”!

As a result of Rich’s talk, a group of influential leaders in the community led by the Mayor of Burlington has engaged in a think tank on how we can help Burlington be the “Healthiest City in Canada”. This was a direct result of the Mayor seeing the amazing community interest in Rich and his inspiring story!

Kevin Brady, CEO of Brady Financial Group, Brady Benefits & Advica Health

“Rich’s speaking engagement with our organization received rave reviews.  Rich is an effective speaker who managed to inspire our audience and connect with them on a personal level.
