Looking for an inspirational speaker?

I'm all about the moments

Moments change lives. Moments inspire. Moments motivate. Moments connect people to possibility. Moments birth courage and leaps of faith.

A moment can be all you need to catapult you forward into a new beginning and many such moments arrive when you're listening to a story.

That's when a Next Chapter can begin

In my core presentations, I share how entrepreneurs and business owners can move through the Next Chapter Change Cycle, navigating doubt, embracing more purposeful work and combining strategy, skills and self-worth for sustainable success.

I’ve spoken at networking events, on Telesummits, at conferences and tradeshows and I host the Your Next Chapter Podcast which has over 130 episodes on iTunes. I’m most often described by clients and colleagues as wholehearted - energetic, inspiring, engaging and vibrant with an ability to break the big picture down into pieces of definitive possibility. A-ha moments are common!

How do you manage change?

How is my story a catalyst for new possibilities?

We can all become stuck, in ways of thinking, ways of working, and ways of living that just don't work for us anymore.

The ripple effects of operating below your potential are significant.

You can become unmotivated and despondent, and your performance at work drops. You begin to lose connection with your family and friends. Your creativity and energy are depleted. Your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing suffers. Your self-talk deteriorates and you may even turn to a whole host of numbing behaviours that lead to self-sabotage and sometimes even more dangerous places.

In addition to your personal malaise, the world is missing out on benefiting from the contribution you are uniquely designed to make when you are fully connected to your values and value, inspired to step up and make your voice heard.

So I am committed to providing the inspiration, tools and practices that unlock self-belief and fuel the desire for growth and change because...

I know how being stuck and despondent feels

In 2003, after a corporate career in marketing, events and sponsorships, I launched a marketing agency from my dining room table and grew it to the point where I bought an office and had a small and talented team of staff, contractors and suppliers taking care of clients in three states. I stuck with this business model way beyond when it was fulfilling for me and faced burnout. I wrestled mightily with the notions of failure versus choice before I finally decided to shift from consulting to mentoring - and I have never looked back.

Lessons I share: Identity, overcoming fear and doubt, Decision Making, Self- awareness, Values, Strengths, the power of curiosity, developing self-belief

In the midst of this journey, I finally faced and beat a serious addiction that had been keeping me emotionally numb with a fierce inner critic for a very l long time. With determination and a 12-step program, I’ve been happily sober since 2006."

Lessons I share: Dealing with shame and judgment, taming your inner critic, change and growth, asking for help, the value of community, changing the narrative, resilience

Most recently, an unexpected ADHD diagnosis at the age of 53 has led me to medication and strategies to better tame, understand and make the most of the power of my highly creative but rather impulsive brain.

Lessons I share: Neurodiversity strengths, self-awareness, self-acceptance and self-compassion, love of learning, time and self-management

I intimately understand the power of reconnecting to your innate worthiness to manage change and develop resilience: when you’re anchored in the value you create, you can readily access confidence, courage, flexibility, creativity and resilience, all essential and valuable skills for our turbulent times and reaching for that somewhat elusive notion of "full potential".

Feedback on my presentations from event organisers and attendees are below

My core topics are:

  • The Next Chapter Model of Change - moving from deliberation to doing
  • The Business of Confidence - escaping Imposter Syndrome and the Comparison Trap
  • Building Resilience through Self-Worth Reconnection - it's never a question of are you worthy, only how will you express your worth
  • Positive Goal Setting - how to set goals that guarantee inspired action

I share the steps you can take in stories of moving from:

  • From should to could
  • From obligation to contribution
  • From doubt and comparison to self-belief and purpose
  • From perhaps I can to yes, I know I can.
