Speaking & Group Sessions

Keynote Speaking for Women’s Events & Communities

I’m available for keynote speaking and group sessions for women’s events, community groups, schools, and organisations.

My talks explore the art of imperfection—a theme also reflected in my picture book—inviting women to soften unrealistic expectations and reconnect with self-worth in a more compassionate, human way.

I also speak about mothers being the heartbeat of the home, and the reminder that our children don’t need perfection—they need our presence. This message often resonates deeply with women who are busy, over stimulated and carry a big mental load - all while questioning whether they’re doing enough.

Drawing on my experience supporting women, children and mothers, I bring warmth, honesty, and gentle humour to conversations about identity, belonging, emotional load, and the realities of modern womanhood.

What Women Take Away:

Women leave my talks with practical, grounded tools they can use in everyday life, including:

    • Noticing and learning how to soften self-critical thoughts

    • Simple ways to regulate overwhelm and emotional load

    • Ways to embed small moments of pause and reconnection in busy days

    • Developing a deeper sense of self-worth, confidence and how to speak create this path for your children

    • Reassurance and vaildation that they are not alone in what they’re carrying

My Approach

My intention is always to create a space that feels real, relatable, and safe to reflect in. I use gentle humour where appropriate, honest storytelling, and grounded insight to help women feel seen and understood.

The focus is always on emotional connection + practical takeaway, so women don’t just feel inspired in the moment—they leave with something they can actually use in their everyday lives.

  • The mental load of motherhood
