Popular Talks
Breaking Bias: Inclusive Workspaces Without Sexism
Keynote | Workshop
Gender bias often operates invisibly through everyday behaviours, language and expectations. In this session, I explore how sexism and unconscious bias shape workplace cultures, clarify the difference between sex and gender, and connect theory with real organisational dynamics.
Audiences leave with:
A shared language to discuss gender bias without defensiveness
A clear understanding of bias at individual and systemic levels
Practical actions to build fairer and more respectful cultures
Ideal for conferences, leadership programmes and workplace training.
Allyship:
From Good Intentions to Real Action
Keynote | Workshop
Allyship is not about helping others. It is about standing with those who experience inequality and letting lived experience lead the way. This session explores what meaningful allyship looks like in practice and why it often goes wrong.
Audiences leave with:
Clarity on what allyship is and what it is not
Tools to avoid performative or harmful behaviours
Confidence to act with accountability and impact
Ideal for organisations ready to move beyond awareness.
Intersectionality: The Tapestry of Privilege and Oppression
Keynote | Workshop
Systems of oppression are interconnected. This session explores how sexism, racism, capitalism, ableism and other structures reinforce one another, shaping access, safety and belonging.
Audiences leave with:
A deeper understanding of intersectionality and power
Greater awareness of identity and bias
Tools to foster belonging, resilience and wellbeing
Best suited for engaged audiences and advanced DEI programmes.
Education & Families
Parenting Beyond Gender Bias (Breaking the Mold)
In this talk, I share practical tools for parents, educators and community groups who want to raise children beyond restrictive gender stereotypes. Drawing from research, lived experience and my book Childhood Unlimited, I explore how everyday cultural messages shape children’s self-concept, confidence and opportunities, and how we can consciously challenge them.
This session creates space for reflection without judgement and offers realistic approaches that work in real families, schools and communities.
Audiences leave with:
A clearer understanding of how gender bias shows up in childhood
Practical tools to challenge stereotypes in daily life
Increased confidence to support all children, including girls, boys and trans and gender-diverse children
Popular for parent and educator network groups, schools, libraries, community organisations and festivals.
