My Transformational Story
At age 60, after decades of yo-yo dieting, I transformed my own health by embracing a plant-based diet. I lost 60 pounds, came off cholesterol & blood pressure medications, and discovered a delicious, nourishing approach to food that I could actually sustain. Six years later, I became a regular exerciser for the first time in my life.
Change is possible at any age.
Inspiring Healthier People. Stronger Teams. Better Lives.
Today, I inspire leaders, teams, and organizations to make positive, practical changes that can improve their health, energy, well-being, and quality of life- because healthier people create stronger workplaces.
I help people believe that change is possible- and give them practical ways to make it happen.
My keynotes inspire audiences to look at their everyday choices differently and recognize that small, intentional changes can have a powerful impact on health and well-being.
I share practical, realistic strategies for incorporating more plants and nourishing foods into everyday life- without giving up delicious food or feeling overwhelmed.
More importantly, I help people believe that they are capable of change.
Whether your audience is looking for better health, more energy, improved well-being, or simply a fresh perspective, they will leave with inspiration- and practical ideas they can begin using immediately.

"Brenda Workman’s presentation on self-care and burnout was truly engaging, practical, and inspiring. Our staff walked away feeling motivated and empowered to make meaningful changes in their own lives. Brenda has a wonderful ability to make self-care feel achievable rather than overwhelming, teaching us to start small, celebrate our successes, and build from there. Our staff feedback was outstanding, and they appreciated her relatable, encouraging approach. I highly recommend Brenda to any organization looking to support, motivate, and invest in the well-being of their staff!"

Woman loses 60 pounds, lowers blood pressure by switching to plant-based diet
Brenda Workman spent most of her life trying to control her weight — losing some pounds with discipline, but then gaining them all back the moment she could no longer resist eating foods high in fat and sugar.
She even worked for a weight-loss organization, leading classes for 27 years before quitting because she “felt like a hypocrite.” Workman says she herself couldn’t stay on the program for more than eight weeks at a time and ended up yo-yo dieting.
