Natalie’s keynotes and workshops don’t just inspire they give leaders the tools and confidence to change how they lead, for good.
With 20 years as a global speaker across 3 continents, I’ve touched the lives of 50,000+ leaders with impactful talks that inspire conversations to continue long after the session ends.
From your first conversation to onstage, you discover Natalie is committed to making the collaboration easy and focused on serving the needs of your event.
I design each talk to suit your unique audience, event goals and constraints, Because I draw on lived experience, the strategies and messages are both inspiring and practical.
Working with me means you’ve got me to support your event’s success - connecting with your audience pre and post event, Q&A sessions, photo-taking and more.
Change - with events, anything can happen. Booking me means you have a experienced professional who knows how to work with you to create the best audience experience whatever the constraints.
In the 20 years I've traveled the world as a speaker, clients have asked me to tell stories speak on many different topics.
My clients enthusiastically tell me, "You are absolutely the best speaker for this topic, it's your flagship!" And I always smile, because each client says this for a different topic that I've just presented to them.
This isn't an accident - it's by design.

I speak from lived experience. Life hasn’t always been smooth. I’ve faced challenges and setbacks, but also blessings. I know what it’s like to struggle, to persevere, and to come out stronger. That’s why people relate with my stories. Because I've lived as they've lived. I've hurt as they've hurt. And I've worked hard, learned, and come out the other side. What I share is the human experience.
I've lived, worked and traveled for work all around the world, influencing more than 50,000 people worldwide. I'm a linguaphile, English is my native language, and along the way I picked up Japanese, Korean, Cantonese and Mandarin, along with just a smattering of French. Honestly, I never fit in anywhere I went. I see myself more as a human being than belonging to any one "group." So I'm kind of every man's man. Just, you know, human.

I've always been a very curious person, and my passion is to understand what makes people tick. I blend practical wisdom with human emotion, combining science with spirituality.
This balance allows me to connect with logical thinkers, emotional storytellers, and everyone in between.
Whether it’s shifting mindsets, inspiring deep reflection, or motivating practical action; I touch the heart and mind to create moments that audiences remember long after the event ends.

We strongly believe that all learning events need to be fun, engaging and practical.
Because:
1. No one learns when they're falling asleep, and...
2. No one applies the learning if it's not useful to them as individuals.
When you invest in a learning engagement, you're looking for some level of change in behavior.
But people won't change just because you pay an external speaker to talk to them.
People only change for themselves.


So we are experts in aligning organizational goals with participants' individual career goals, so participants are motivated to make the desired changes in behavior - for themselves.
This includes:
Higher engagement
Reducing employee turnover
Less time wasted on people issues
More time spent on strategic delivery
And anything that impacts the balance sheet and bottom line

We also focus on:
Identifying any blockages and resistance to change and shifting participant mindsets accordingly so they open up fully to learning new concepts and skills.
We excel at:
Packaging complicated concepts and skills into easily digestible chunks to make it as easy as possible both for people to learn during the event AND to apply in real life after.
And we have many real life stories, case studies from the corporate battlefield, that bring the learning - and motivation to change - alive.
Then there's the ultimate test - are people retaining and applying what they've learned


I've had a contentious leadership team tell me, 2 months after our 2-day leadership offsite, story after story of how these teams that were at each other's throats, were now co-operating and together making it possible to bring in more business.
I've had a senior HR leader come up to me at an event and tell me that the suggestions I made at their leadership offsite, that same leader came returned to the office on Monday and every day in the 3 years since, following the suggestions I made exactly.
I've had a participant join a gathering I hosted, and happened to witness him happily sharing to others he just met, in exact detail what he learned in the 2 hour workshop he attended 2 years ago (in more detail than I could even repeat myself).
If you are looking for workshops that combine inspiration, insight, practical learning and application, wrapped up in a fun and engaging delivery, we'd love to chat.

From leadership offsites to team building events, or your anniversary party, I'm happy to throw in an inspirational quote and nuggets of wisdom from up on the stage. All I need is a mic and I'll keep your audience engaged and happy.
