A Sample of Rita's Speaking
Rita has successfully reduced stress at:
Imagine the whirlwind of life: running your own business, navigating the chaos of raising TWO toddlers at mid-life! That’s the exhilarating yet daunting journey Rita embarked on, transforming her world into a high-stakes balancing act.
With an impressive background spanning 20 years in high-pressure healthcare as a Respiratory Therapist, including life-saving moments on the MedCenter Air trauma flight team, and 16 years as a licensed massage therapist, Rita was equipped with unique skills. But nothing prepared her for the tidal wave of stress that accompanied instant motherhood.
Determined to not just survive but thrive, Rita turned to her experiences and expertise, crafting her own innovative stress management system. In 2018, she shared her insights in a groundbreaking book, and by 2020, her system garnered national acclaim, earning a federal copyright for her 42-page method.
Rita’s deep understanding of stress—gained through both her professional journey and personal challenges—positions her as the go-to guru for stress management in today’s relentless work environment. She has already empowered hundreds to conquer workplace stress and boost productivity, with the ambition to assist thousands more, including you and your organization.
Residing in vibrant Charlotte, NC, Rita shares her life with her husband, daughters, and fur-babies, embodying the very principles of balance and resilience she teaches.

Speaker Testimonials
Rita Garnto and I have known each other for more than 15 years. Her background and knowledge in self-care is outstanding. Rita is a remarkable professional in her business. I use her simple self-care tips and they work! It's that SIMPLE.
Rita has been a Keynote Speaker for my networking events through the eWomenNetwork Organization when I was the Executive Managing Director of the Charlotte, NC Chapter. Our monthly chapter meetings would have 50-100+ attendees. Rita provided several presentations for our meetings because she was so engaging and helpful to businesswomen. She would provide easy steps for them to relieve their stress and learn self-care so they could stay happy and healthier every day and build stronger businesses as a result. Her presentation style is down to earth and SIMPLE.
I highly recommend Rita Garnto as a speaker and self-care expert for your organization.

Rita Garnto is an excellent event coordinator, ensuring our organization’s needs were met for a requested presentation . She delivered a 30-minute self-care and stress management focused presentation at our staff meeting, providing tools and practical advice, exercises and hand-outs. Rita is very relatable, authentic and a great listener. Her message was right on point and she adapted to fit within our allotted timeframe perfectly. Employees even had the option of signing up for a self-care reminder text. Here’s the feedback I received from one of our team members “ in our hustle of everyday life, we somehow overlook self-care. . .It’s nice to be reminded. I also got my first text this morning from Rita. This is going to be great!”

Rita spoke at our women’s self-care event with an audience of about 100 attorneys who work in high stress positions for corporations all over the world.
The women were deeply inspired by Rita’s personal testimonials, experiences and advice on how to balance and improve life using personal self-care. It was a great way to kick off the half-day event, and everyone was appreciative of her book in order to refer back to the suggestions and techniques on an ongoing basis. We hope to use Rita again for other events.

Rita Garnto is the real deal. Her ability to relate to an audience on an individual level with each participant borders on a magical experience.
She captivates her audience with her knowledge of how stress controls many aspects of our lives. The audience can feel and relate to the examples that she gives and are on the edge of their seats waiting for her practical steps and solutions.
Each time I hear Rita speak I gain more knowledge for ways to apply stress relieving techniques that she presents. She is a breath of fresh air in this high-stressed, multi-digital, do-it-all-or-else world we live in. I highly recommend RIta and her Simple Self-Care.
