I regularly speak at different events organised by brands, NGOs, and other organisations.
As a passionate and engaging speaker, I’m regularly invited to talk to a variety of different audiences at regional, national, and international events. I speak about the topics of body image, disordered eating and mental health, including strategies to promote body confidence among young people and adults, and at multiple levels, from the societal to individual.
I’ve been a keynote speaker at discipline-specific conferences and events, including those organised by the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, the National Education Union, the Public Relations and Communications Association, and the Bristol Health Partners' Eating Disorders Health Integration Team. I’ve also been invited to speak at festivals, including Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity and Cheltenham Science Festival.
I’m often invited to speak at events organised by NGOs, education and health organisations. Examples include speaking at the United Nations for the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, speaking to national governing bodies for sports at Women in Sport, speaking to teachers and students at schools across South England, and speaking to cancer survivors at Maggie’s about strategies to improve their body image.
With my experience of speaking in different contexts, I can adapt my presentation style based on the nature of your event and audience.
My speaking invitations have varied from talking directly to clinical and community groups about strategies to improve body image to speaking for international brands and businesses about the role of the media and advertising in influencing body image and society-wide approaches that can be adopted to reduce appearance pressures. I’ve talked in many different formats, ranging from individual pre-prepared presentations to in-the-moment panel discussions. I’ve spoken for online events and podcasts, in addition to in-person events all over the world. I’m fluent in English and Spanish and am happy to present in either language.
