Hello, my name is Frank Kitchen…Yes, my last name really is Kitchen. I’m known as the “Mindset Master Chef.” I’m a Husband, Father, Friend, Son, Brother, Volunteer, Professional Speaker and Author.

I’m far from perfect, and understand that I need to work everyday to get a little better at each.

My passion is working with organizations who want to fire up the performance of their teams. Something I’ve been doing for over 30 years and had to personally practice when I launched my speaking career after being fired from my “last job” on Father’s Day in 2015…when my wife was pregnant with our second child.
