Keynote Speakers
for the Women in Heat Treat Summit 2026
Katie Rucker, Co-owner, Strategic Insights & Foresight Partner, MacKenzie Corp & Next Gen Collaborative
Katie will encourage attendees through her presentation, “The Other Side of Your Comfort Zone.” The other side of your comfort zone isn’t just about doing something scary. Sometimes it’s about giving yourself permission to imagine something you haven’t seen modeled before. You are in for a treat!
Susan Lanz, Educator & Writer
“What’s Your 100 Miles?” That’s the question Sue will explore. We live in a culture that celebrates breakthrough moments and overnight success. But real transformation rarely happens in a single leap. It is built through small, courageous decisions — often made when no one is watching, and there is no guarantee of success.
