ACHIEVE YOUR FULL POTENTIAL & MAINTAIN YOUR HEALTH & WELLBEING

I am an experienced, engaging and inspiring speaker on wellbeing and mental health. Through my keynote speeches, I empower people to achieve their full potential in all areas of life while maintaining their physical, mental and emotional health. I offer strategies and tools to help manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm, avoid workaholism and burnout, cope with difficult feelings and improve relationships so that we can thrive, not just survive.

"Katherine is authentic, inspiring and speaks from the heart" - Laura Taylor, Founder of Collaborative

My talks also educate and support organisations to prioritise the wellbeing of their employees and they inspire leaders to lead with honesty and vulnerability, knowing that a happy, healthy, engaged workforce is the best recipe for productivity and top performance.

"I think the talk was pitch-perfect in what it covered and how it was delivered, and I think the attendees really benefited from it ... I would wholeheartedly recommend Katherine as a speaker. She understood what we were trying to achieve with her presentation and was helpful and professional, and the actual talk was beautifully presented and of immense benefit to the audience," - Karen, Office Manager, Voucher Codes

I speak with vulnerability, authenticity and passion and draw on my personal experience as well as my professional expertise. I am a former journalist for the global news agency Reuters. In my final role, I reported from the UK Houses of Parliament, travelled the world with former Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, visited Downing Street and the White House and covered tsunamis, earthquakes and terrorist attacks. While I performed to the highest of standards, at the same time I was bingeing on excess food, drinking too much, sabotaging my relationships, experiencing low self-esteem, anxiety, crippling perfectionism and imposter syndrome and working myself into the ground to compensate for how I felt, leading to burnout, breakdown and depression in my mid-thirties. From this dark place, I rebuilt my life. I learned an array of tools and techniques to support me to heal my unhealthy coping mechanisms, work to my potential while staying healthy and well and flourish in my new career as a coach, speaker, retreat leader, midlife mentor and author.

Drawing on these experiences, I speak to audiences on the following topics:


  • Achieving our full potential and maximising our true talents while staying healthy and well
  • Managing stress, anxiety and difficult emotions in healthy ways
  • Avoiding self-harming behaviours including eating disorders, alcohol and drug abuse and workaholism leading to burnout
  • Letting go of perfectionism and procrastination in order to thrive, not just survive
  • Developing confidence, healthy self-esteem and emotional resilience
  • Forming and maintaining healthy relationships with ourselves and others
  • Leading with authenticity and vulnerability

I combine excellent communication and presentation skills, honed over 20+ years in high-level journalism across print and broadcast media, with vulnerability and authenticity to produce a powerful mix. I am professional and adaptable and do my utmost to plan and prepare the perfect talk for your audience. I am available for briefing calls as well as follow-up calls.

In addition to keynotes for corporates, I host engaging workshops on topics including wellbeing, mental health, eating disorders, anxiety and stress. I also speak to school-age and college-age children and young people. Click here for more information about my talks for schools.

Below is some feedback from previous talks and keynote speeches:

"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

"Candid, insightful and informative. It was really meaningful to hear such a brave and personal account of such difficult experiences" - Voucher Codes

"I was particularly struck by your story about being in the hotel room and eating the minibar. I think it really gave the rest of your talk authenticity and honesty because you really had gone through it and come out the other side" - Karen, Office Manager, Voucher Codes 

“I was delighted to have Katherine join as a guest speaker for the ‘Dorset Leaders Wellbeing Summit’ in association with Light On and Dorset Mind. Katherine is authentic, inspiring and speaks from the heart. She delivered an engaging session on how we can all aim for ‘our full potential with wellbeing’" - Laura Taylor, Founder of Collaborative

"I felt understood and could relate to how you felt. You covered everything I hoped to hear about - your story, your suffering, your healing, signs to look out for and how to start conversations with others. I'm more aware of how I see food, my control over it and my body, and my relationship with the scales. Katherine's talk was empathetic and sensitive, and her concern for other people and their mental and physical health was obvious." - Voucher Codes


"As well as an amazing journalist, Katherine is an inspiring speaker. Katherine hosted a webinar on 'Strengthening Your Confidence to Optimise Performance', which was much appreciated by all attendees. She provided advice and techniques on how to adapt through the COVID 19 period. Her talk blended her personal experience with her vast professional experience. If I had the opportunity, I would take advantage of Katherine's speaking and motivational services again" – Florentina Diacu, Bureau van Dijk
