Speaking From Experience

I combine excellent communication and presentation skills honed over more than 20 years working as an international journalist with vulnerability, authenticity and emotional intelligence to produce powerful, engaging talks. I specialise in speaking to and working with high-achieving individuals.

My talks are based on my own experience. I am a former international correspondent for the global news agency Reuters. I reached the peak of my profession, working in the Houses of Parliament and travelling the world with then Prime Minister Tony Blair. At the same time, I struggled with anxiety, stress, low self-confidence and self-destructive behaviours including an eating disorder, alcohol abuse and compulsive work. I suffered in silence, ashamed to admit what was going on inside. Ultimately, these behaviours led to burnout and enforced sick leave, at a huge personal cost and a substantial cost to my company.

I know that many professionals struggle with low confidence, imposter syndrome, self-sabotaging behaviours, perfectionism and high levels of anxiety and stress. I know that burnout and breakdown are common among high-achieving individuals. Imagine if we could inspire people to work to their full potential and to maximise their gifts and talents. And imagine if we could support people to develop a new way of working that's productive and that keeps them happy, healthy and well. This is my mission.

I am committed to helping professional women and men to achieve their full potential, at work and in life, while maintaining their health and wellbeing. I offer keynote speeches for companies and organisations and talks and workshops for women's groups on the following topics:

  • Achieving our full potential and maximising our true talents
  • Managing stress, anxiety and difficult emotions
  • Avoiding self-harm, self-sabotage and burnout
  • Letting go of perfectionism in order to thrive
  • Developing confidence, self-esteem and emotional resilience
  • Forming and maintaining healthy relationships with ourselves and others
  • Leading with authenticity and vulnerability

I believe authenticity and vulnerability are the keys to healthy relationships at work and to a fulfilled and productive workforce. When we are vulnerable ourselves, we give others the permission to be real. This can avoid costly episodes of burnout, negative stress or self-destructive behaviours.

How I Work

I offer motivational talks to large audiences or bespoke workshops for smaller groups. In my workshops, I create a safe, nurturing environment in which to explore topics such as stress, anxiety, perfectionism or self-destructive behaviours. I have found that my vulnerability encourages others to look inside themselves, own their behaviours, commit to change and, where necessary, seek help.

I draw on the tools I have learned on my personal development journey over the last 15 years along with my intuitive coaching abilities and natural empathy.

I have spoken on The Inspire'd Stage in London and at the Women of the World Festival at London's Southbank Centre. I have appeared on national radio including Woman's Hour and on national television including Newsnight and Sky News. I have researched and written on topics including emotional resilience, wellbeing, eating disorders and other mental health issues for clients including The School of Life and publications including Psychologies, Red and The Daily Mail.

Her feedback was insightful, and I came away with a whole new way of looking at where I want to be in life and how to actually get there" - Tim Large, Director, Journalism & Media Programmes, Thomson Reuters Foundation


"I met Katherine at The Inspire’d Stage in London, where she delivered a talk – a talk that was refreshingly real and from the soul. In a world where hiding our feelings and looking for quick fixes on the outside seems to be the advice du jour, Katherine is a breath of fresh air"
– Lidija Markovic Rosati, International NLP Trainer and Master Coach and creator of Momentum Coaching Method
