I speak internationally on relationships, sexual culture, youth and media influences, and have had the privilege of delivering a TEDx talk.
Speaking
Ever since I was a kid, I have enjoyed public speaking, I clearly remember the school speech competition being the one thing I felt good at. There’s always nerves, but there's also nothing like that rush you get from connecting with an audience and knowing you've brought some joy or reflection into their day.
I enjoy the challenge of breaking down ideas and sharing them in a way that's not just easy to comprehend but highly engaging. When I’m up front, my mission is simple – to make sure everyone in the room not only enjoys the ride but walks away with a new take on things. If an audience has gifted me with a precious resource, their time, then it’s my responsibility to offer something of value back.
