A powerful, heart-hitting keynote that unpacks how trauma, migration, survival strategies, and cultural expectations shape who we become — and how we can break cycles without breaking connection. Based on my TEDx talk, this session blends psychology, family systems, and cultural nuance with practical tools for healing and change.

A deep dive into ADHD and neurodiversity that centres women, people of colour, and migrant communities. This keynote explores neuronormativity, masking, late diagnosis, cultural shame, and how organisations can create truly inclusive and neuroaffirming environments. Expect neuroscience, humour, and the “aha” moments people never forget.

From stigma to strengths-based frameworks, this talk highlights the unique emotional landscapes of multicultural communities. Perfect for schools, health services, councils, and workplaces wanting to better support diverse clients, staff, and communities.

A keynote on the power of community, connection, creativity, and cultural safe spaces. Inspired by my work with The Third Place, this talk explores why traditional mental health pathways don’t meet everyone’s needs — and how third spaces can transform wellbeing and social cohesion.

A practical, engaging keynote for organisations wanting to support neurodivergent staff. Covers ADHD, autism, executive functioning, sensory needs, performance, burnout, and how to design workplaces where all brains can thrive.

A unique keynote for schools, health teams, and women’s organisations exploring how hormonal cycles shape ADHD symptoms — and what support, strategies, and compassion actually look like.

A powerful, modern keynote exploring why burnout has become a baseline for so many of us — especially women, carers, educators, community workers, and people from collectivist cultures.
This talk blends psychology, nervous system science, and cultural context to unpack:

• why rest feels like guilt, not relief

• how survival-mode becomes a personality

• how migrant and high-achieving communities normalise over-functioning

• what real recovery (not bubble baths) looks like
  Participants walk away with practical tools for boundaries, nervous system regulation, and sustainable wellbeing — without abandoning their values or communities.

A warm, human keynote on the science of belonging and the cultural stories we carry about family, identity, and community.
This talk examines:

• the biology of loneliness and why it hits neurodivergent and migrant communities differently

• how “third spaces” heal what institutions can’t

• why emotional isolation hides behind high achievement

• what it means to feel seen vs. simply included
  This one lands beautifully with councils, organisations, schools, youth programs, and community groups wanting to rebuild connection in a disconnected world.

A keynote for leaders, executives, and HR teams on creating workplaces where humans come before output.
It covers:

• psychological safety

• emotional literacy for leaders

• trauma-informed communication

• how to support staff through stress, change, and neurodivergence

• the cost of avoidance culture (and how to shift it)
  Expect humour, real stories, and evidence-based frameworks that transform team culture and wellbeing.

A deeply resonant talk for conferences, women’s leadership events, and DEI programs.
This keynote explores:

• the emotional labour carried by women of colour in workplaces, families, and communities

• intergenerational expectations and “good daughter syndrome”

• the myth of resilience and the toll it takes

• the politics of being the “strong one”

• how organisations can support women of colour beyond tokenism
  It is validating, empowering, and transformative — and always sparks powerful conversations.

Based on my published research “Dealing with Student Trauma: Exploring School Leadership Experiences and Impact”, this keynote dives into the emotional, organisational, and relational realities of supporting traumatised young people in school settings.

This talk explores:

• the hidden emotional load school leaders carry when responding to student trauma

• the blurred lines between duty-of-care and self-sacrifice in education

• how compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and moral distress show up in principals and leadership teams

• why traditional training doesn’t prepare leaders for the intensity of trauma-affected schools

• the critical role of culture, community, and context in shaping how trauma unfolds

• what sustainable, trauma-informed leadership actually looks like (and what it doesn’t)

Leaders walk away with practical frameworks for:

• building organisational resilience

• supporting staff without burning out

• responding to crises without emotional collapse

• embedding trauma-informed systems that protect both students and the adults who support them

This keynote is packed with insight, real-world stories, and practical strategies — and it speaks directly to the hearts of educators who give more than they ever receive. It’s validating, evidence-based, and deeply needed in today’s schools.
