Speaking
A physician's case for a different kind of health.
Dr Breytenbach speaks to conferences, healthcare audiences, leadership teams and organisations on what actually produces health — in bodies, in teams and in systems.
Topics
Talks currently on offer.
Each talk is adapted to the audience — clinical, corporate or public. Bespoke topics are welcome.
The Future of Healthcare
Why a system built to treat disease struggles to produce health — and what a preventive, relational model looks like in practice.
Lifestyle Medicine
The evidence base for food, movement, sleep, substances, stress and connection as clinical intervention.
Trauma-Informed Leadership
What every leader should understand about the nervous system, and how that understanding changes how they lead.
Healing Beyond Symptoms
Moving the question from “what is wrong with you” to “what happened to you, and what conditions let you flourish”.
Human Flourishing
The seven foundations, and what it takes to sustain change rather than merely start it.
The Biology of Belonging
Connection as a physiological requirement rather than a social preference — and what isolation costs the body.
Building Cultures of Trust
How psychological safety is actually produced, and why it cannot be mandated.
