Health & Wellbeing

Why organisations work with Abigail Ireland She bridges two audiences most performance speakers cannot. As a Chartered Banker who originated private equity deals before retraining as a Master Personal Trainer and nutrition coach, she speaks to a finance or executive room without losing them on the physiology, and to an operational room without losing them on the commercial logic. The Performance Advantage methodology gives clients a single framework that covers mindset, energy, and focus rather than three separate vendor relationships for coaching, wellbeing, and productivity. Practical content rather than inspiration. Sessions translate into specific changes an executive can apply to a working week: sleep, nutrition, recovery, focus blocks, calendar discipline. Track record with demanding corporate environments including The Walt Disney Company, Discovery, Lloyds Banking Group and Lyft, where the brief is sustained output under pressure, not motivational lift. Biography highlights Chartered Banker (MCBI) with a First Class BSc (Hons) in International Management Former private equity professional and international banking strategy and business management lead Creator of the Performance Advantage methodology, used in keynotes, workshops and coaching engagements Master Personal Trainer (Australian Institute of Fitness), Pn2 Precision Nutrition Coach, NLP Practitioner, Mind Gym Coach, DISC Practitioner Corporate clients include The Walt Disney Company, Discovery, Lloyds Banking Group and Lyft Contributor and featured expert across GQ, HR Magazine, ILM publications, Skillshare, AAT, ACCA Student Accountant, NatWest, and CMI Workplace Biography Most corporate wellbeing programmes are built on the assumption that the workforce needs encouragement. Senior leadership teams need something different. They need to know how to operate at high cognitive load, week after week, without their judgement or stamina degrading. That is the operational question Abigail Ireland’s work addresses. Her route to the question is unusual. She began in private equity deal origination, then moved into international strategy and business management roles in banking, qualifying as a Chartered Banker along the way. The shift into peak performance was not a pivot away from finance. It was a recognition that the performance variable inside those firms was personal, not structural, and that nobody was treating it with the same rigour as a transaction. The Performance Advantage methodology is the result. It treats mindset, energy, and focus as a single integrated system, drawing on her training as a Master Personal Trainer, Precision Nutrition coach, NLP Practitioner, and Mind Gym coach. The content is calibrated for senior corporate audiences, with named clients including The Walt Disney Company, Discovery, Lloyds Banking Group, and Lyft. What separates her sessions from the broader wellbeing market is the level of specificity. Audiences leave with concrete adjustments to their week, not a renewed commitment to self-care. The work has been picked up by GQ, HR Magazine, ILM, CMI Workplace, and ACCA Student Accountant. Key speaking topics Peak performance psychology Energy and recovery for senior leaders Focus and productivity under cognitive load Mindset and limiting beliefs Sustainable high performance Wellbeing as a performance lever Personal effectiveness and time discipline Ideal for Senior leadership teams and executive committees facing sustained delivery pressure CHROs and heads of talent commissioning wellbeing or performance content for high-demand functions Partner and managing director cohorts in professional services, banking and law Sales and deal teams where individual stamina materially affects revenue Audience outcomes A clear set of changes an executive can apply to their week across sleep, nutrition, recovery, and focus A working model for treating mindset, energy, and focus as one system rather than three separate problems Practical methods to manage cognitive load and avoid output decline under pressure Language and frameworks senior leaders can use to discuss performance with their own teams

Why organisations work with Adam Thomas Two decades of broadcast presence on ITV and BBC primetime, including Emmerdale, Waterloo Road, I’m a Celebrity and Strictly Come Dancing, which translates directly into stage warmth in front of corporate audiences. A working founder’s perspective on consumer brand building, drawn from operating Oh My Glaze through retail at the Trafford Centre and surviving the public liquidation of a sister hospitality venture. Public, named experience of leading and performing while managing rheumatoid arthritis, a credible point of view for audiences interested in chronic illness and high-output careers. Comfort across awards hosting, panel moderation, fireside Q&A and after-dinner formats, with the broadcast pacing that those formats need. Biography highlights Played Adam Barton in ITV’s Emmerdale from 2009 to 2018, one of the longest single-character runs of his generation on the soap. Played Donte Charles in BBC’s Waterloo Road from 2006 to 2009, returning for the 2023 BBC reboot. Third-place finalist on I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here in 2016, later co-host of the companion show I’m a Celebrity: Extra Camp. Strictly Come Dancing 2023 contestant, finishing in eighth place while publicly managing a recent rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis. Co-host of ITV’s 99 To Beat in 2025 with his brother Ryan Thomas. Founder of consumer hot sauce brand Oh My Glaze, with a flagship retail unit at the Trafford Centre in Manchester. Won Best Soap Newcomer at the 2010 TV Choice Awards. Biography Most consumer founders pitch their story after the win. Oh My Glaze sits in a less tidy place. The hot sauce brand is trading through a Trafford Centre flagship and grocery channels, while a sister hospitality business, the Manchester restaurant The Spinn, ended in voluntary liquidation. Running both at once, in public, is the substance of what Adam Thomas brings to a corporate stage on entrepreneurship. The platform underneath that is two decades of British primetime. Emmerdale carried him through almost a decade as Adam Barton from 2009. Waterloo Road framed his early career as Donte Charles and brought him back for the BBC reboot in 2023. I’m a Celebrity put him in front of a peak ITV audience and earned him a third-place finish in 2016, followed by co-hosting on Extra Camp. Strictly Come Dancing in 2023 added a live-broadcast performance credit while he was managing a recent diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, a condition he now discusses publicly on Good Morning Britain and This Morning. For corporate buyers, that record translates into a specific kind of stage product. He hosts awards, opens conferences, runs fireside panels and closes evenings. The broadcast training shows. Where the brief calls for it, he can speak to the founder track and to the experience of leading visible work through chronic illness. Key speaking topics Consumer brand building and founder operations Retail and hospitality entrepreneurship Television and broadcast careers Resilience while managing chronic illness Reality television and live performance Awards and event hosting Ideal for Corporate awards nights, gala dinners and team celebrations seeking a recognisable broadcast host Founder communities and SME audiences interested in consumer brand operations Retail, hospitality and FMCG events looking for a working-founder voice Workplace wellbeing audiences exploring chronic illness and high-output careers Audience outcomes A grounded view of what running a consumer hot sauce brand actually involves through retail and grocery stores An honest reading of what happened around the closure of The Spinn and what a founder takes from a public liquidation A first-person account of competing on Strictly Come Dancing with a recent rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis A warmer, looser room than a standard keynote slot, with broadcast-paced Q&A

Why organisations work with Dr Alex George He brings a clinician’s framework to workplace wellbeing, grounding corporate mental health conversations in the same preventative medicine thinking used on an emergency medicine ward. His policy work as the UK Government’s Youth Mental Health Ambassador gives him rare authority on what structural mental health support actually looks like at scale, from curriculum design to Early Support Hubs. Two Sunday Times bestsellers, Live Well Every Day and The Mind Manual, give his sessions a concrete toolkit audiences can take away, not a set of slogans. He connects the wellbeing agenda to the emerging workforce, with direct credibility on Gen Z mental health, early career burnout, and the intergenerational shift inside organisations. He speaks publicly about losing his brother Llyr to suicide in 2020, which turns the topic from corporate compliance into a conversation leaders feel obligated to lead. Biography highlights NHS-trained emergency medicine doctor, University Hospital Lewisham, London Medical degree, University of Exeter Medical School (2015); honorary degree from the University of Exeter (2024) First UK Government Youth Mental Health Ambassador, appointed by the Prime Minister, Department for Education (2021-2024) Author of Sunday Times bestsellers Live Well Every Day and The Mind Manual Host of Stompcast and The Waiting Room, walking and health interview podcasts Campaigner behind the Early Support Hubs initiative, which secured nearly 5 million pounds of UK government funding for open-access youth mental health drop-ins Biography Most workplace wellbeing programmes are built by committees. Dr Alex George builds them the way an emergency medicine doctor assesses a patient: triage the real risks first, then design habits that people will actually repeat. That clinical instinct sits underneath everything he does on stage. Training at the University of Exeter Medical School and working in emergency medicine at University Hospital Lewisham gave him a direct view of how mental and physical health present together, and how late most people arrive for help. His public profile opened a second track. In February 2021 the Prime Minister appointed him the UK’s first Youth Mental Health Ambassador, based in the Department for Education, where he spent four years shaping policy on school and college support, curriculum, and early intervention. The campaign that defines that period is Early Support Hubs. Working with the Fund the Hubs Coalition, Mind, and YoungMinds, he pushed for walk-in mental health services for young people and helped secure nearly 5 million pounds of initial UK government investment. The same logic drives his writing. Live Well Every Day and The Mind Manual, both Sunday Times bestsellers, turn clinical ideas into daily practice for a non-medical reader. For corporate audiences, that body of work translates into an unusually practical session: clinician-grade framing of the mental health risks inside a workforce, paired with habits leaders can install this quarter. In 2024 the University of Exeter awarded him an honorary degree in recognition of the campaigning. Key speaking topics Workplace mental health and employee wellbeing Preventative health and mental fitness Youth mental health and the Gen Z workforce Burnout, resilience, and recovery Public health communication and behaviour change Suicide prevention and mental health literacy for leaders Ideal for CHROs and Chief Wellbeing Officers redesigning mental health provision beyond EAP minimums Leadership teams accountable for burnout, attrition, and engagement metrics Early careers, graduate, and Gen Z talent programmes Healthcare, education, and public sector organisations with frontline workforce pressures Audience outcomes A clinician’s read on which mental health risks are most material to their workforce right now A concrete set of daily habits, drawn from his books, that leaders can model and cascade A sharper understanding of how Gen Z employees experience mental health differently, and what that means for policy and line management Practical language for leaders to open mental health conversations without overstepping into clinical territory A clear view of what structural mental health support looks like, drawn from his government policy work

Why organisations work with Alison Canavan She turns wellbeing from a benefits line item into something employees do during the working day. Her signature 5-Minute Journal practice and short mindfulness routines are designed for people who say they have no time for wellbeing. She brings a UCLA Semel Institute mindfulness credential into rooms that would otherwise be sceptical of meditation language, which gives HR and people leaders a defensible programme to stand behind. She built a structured wellbeing series for an airline, Aer Lingus, on a workforce known for shift fatigue and circadian disruption. That kind of operational application travels well into other shift-heavy and high-pressure environments. She speaks from a lived recovery narrative, postnatal depression, addiction, single parenthood, without turning the talk into therapy. Audiences disclose more honestly afterwards, which is what HR teams say they need. She is comfortable with both a 200-person town hall and an executive offsite, which matters for organisations rolling a single wellbeing voice across multiple formats. Biography highlights UCLA-trained Mindfulness Facilitator, Semel Institute of Neuroscience and Human Behavior Author of Minding Mum: It’s Time to Take Care of You, published by Gill Books, Ireland Master NLP Practitioner, HeartMath facilitator, and graduate of the Irish Institute of Nutrition and Health (Advanced Diploma in Diet and Nutrition Therapeutics) Creator of the Wellbeing in the Skies series for Aer Lingus Corporate keynote and workshop work cited with Google, YouTube, Deloitte, Coinbase, Allianz, Bank of Ireland, PayPal, Bristol Myers Squibb, Deutsche Telekom and Vitality Regular contributor to Irish broadsheet and broadcast media on mental health and wellbeing, including The Sunday Independent and Ireland AM Biography Most wellbeing programmes inside organisations underperform for the same reason. They treat stress and mental health as a benefits category rather than something that happens minute by minute during the working day. Alison Canavan’s corporate work is built around closing that gap. She trained as a Mindfulness Facilitator at UCLA’s Semel Institute of Neuroscience and Human Behavior, and combines that with practitioner-level work in NLP, HeartMath and nutrition. The point of stacking those disciplines is practical. Different parts of a workforce respond to different entry points, and her programmes are designed to give people a route in that does not require them to call it meditation if they do not want to. Her book Minding Mum, published by Gill Books in Ireland, established her early authority on postnatal mental health and self-care. The corporate work has since broadened into stress, burnout, anxiety, hybrid working pressure, and the slow erosion of attention that senior teams now describe as their biggest people problem. Her Wellbeing in the Skies series, built for Aer Lingus cabin crew, is one example of a structured programme designed for a workforce that cannot easily step away from the job to look after itself. What audiences tend to take from her sessions is not a concept but a habit. The 5-Minute Journal practice she teaches is the most cited example. It is short enough to survive a real working week, which is the only test that matters for workplace wellbeing content. Key speaking topics Workplace mental health and burnout Mindfulness and daily practice for high-pressure teams Stress, anxiety and recovery Hybrid working and return-to-office wellbeing Self-leadership and emotional regulation Resilience and sustainable performance Postnatal mental health and parental wellbeing Ideal for CHROs and heads of people designing the next iteration of their wellbeing strategy Wellbeing, DEI and employee experience leads commissioning company-wide programmes Operational leaders of shift-based or high-pressure workforces (airlines, healthcare, financial services, contact centres) Leadership offsites and senior team meetings where stress and personal capacity have become a strategic conversation Audience outcomes A daily practice, anchored in the 5-Minute Journal method, that survives a real working week A clearer language for stress, burnout and anxiety that employees and managers can actually use with each other Specific techniques for nervous system regulation that work in the gaps between meetings A more honest conversation about mental health inside the room, which most HR teams report as the single hardest thing to engineer

Why organisations work with Amanda Hamilton A clinical nutrition practitioner who can hold a corporate audience. The combination of qualified therapist credentials and 25 years of mainstream BBC presenting is what allows her to land technical content on gut health, fasting and longevity without losing the room. Genuine subject authority on women’s mid-life health, an area most wellbeing programmes underserve. The Women’s Reset programme is built specifically around women aged 40+, the cohort employers are most often losing. A bestselling thesis on the gut-health-and-weight relationship, The G Plan Diet, that pre-dated the mainstream gut microbiome conversation and is still in print. Practical, non-dogmatic translation of biohacking, fasting and longevity science. Audiences leave with things they can actually do on Monday, not a manifesto. Biography highlights Nutritional therapist with 25+ years’ practice; member of the British Association of Nutritional Therapists and associate member of the Royal Society of Medicine. Co-host of the BBC’s Something for the Weekend with Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer, and presenter on How to Live Longer, The Truth About… and The Spa of Embarrassing Illnesses. Author of The G Plan Diet (2017, with Hannah Ebelthite), Eat, Fast, Slim (Watkins, 2013), Life-Changing Weight Loss (Piatkus, 2008) and LifeDetox (Piatkus, 2007). Founder of The Women’s Reset, an app-based programme on nutrition, exercise, mindset and healthcare for women aged 40+. Currently pursuing an MSc in Obesity Science at Robert Gordon University. Past corporate and consulting work spans Marbella Club, MyFitnessPal, Nairns and OakNorth, alongside Harley Street longevity practice. Biography Most corporate wellness content fails the credibility test the moment a clinically literate employee asks a follow-up question. Amanda Hamilton has built a 25-year career on the opposite premise: that workforce audiences will engage seriously with nutrition, longevity and gut health, but only when the speaker can hold the science as well as the room. Her clinical grounding sits with the British Association of Nutritional Therapists and the Royal Society of Medicine, and she is currently pursuing an MSc in Obesity Science at Robert Gordon University. Her broadcast career, including years co-hosting the BBC’s Something for the Weekend and presenting How to Live Longer, taught her how to make that science conversational without watering it down. The G Plan Diet, published in 2017 with Hannah Ebelthite, brought the gut-weight relationship into the mainstream conversation before the microbiome became a wellness category in its own right. Earlier books with Piatkus and Watkins covered fasting, weight loss and detox protocols, work she has since extended through retreats, the Women’s Reset programme for women aged 40+, and Harley Street longevity practice. For corporate audiences this resolves a familiar problem. Wellbeing programmes lose authority when they over-promise; they lose engagement when they under-deliver. She works in the narrow band between clinical caution and practical usefulness, which is why she lands well with mid-life cohorts that have heard the generic version too many times. Key speaking topics Nutrition and gut health Longevity and healthspan Women’s mid-life health and menopause Corporate wellbeing and workforce vitality Fasting and metabolic health Biohacking and human optimisation Ideal for Heads of HR, reward and benefits, and wellbeing leads designing or refreshing employee health programmes Companies focused on retaining and supporting women aged 40+, including senior female talent Health, hospitality and wellness brands seeking a clinically credible voice on consumer-facing nutrition Audience outcomes A clearer view of which workplace health interventions are evidence-backed and which are not A practical understanding of how nutrition, sleep and fasting protocols affect energy and performance A more informed conversation about women’s mid-life health that goes beyond menopause headlines Specific, lifestyle-level changes employees can apply without needing a clinical referral

Why organisations work with Amy Purdy She offers a first-hand account of performance under permanent constraint that senior leaders recognise as substantive, not motivational filler. She has changed the rules of her own sport: co-founded Adaptive Action Sports in 2005 and was central to adding Para snowboarding to the 2014 Paralympic programme, a concrete example of building a category where none existed. Her book “On My Own Two Feet” (William Morrow, 2014) sits on New York Times bestseller shelves and gives her argument a durable reference point buyers can hand to executives before or after a session. She holds audiences that include mainstream corporate, healthcare, and sport: Dancing with the Stars finalist, TED speaker, Toyota Super Bowl commercial subject, which means she is legible to wide leadership groups. Her content translates directly to questions boards are actually asking: how to keep teams performing through sustained uncertainty, and how to lead when the original plan is no longer available. Biography highlights Three-time Paralympic medallist in Para snowboarding: bronze, Sochi 2014; silver and bronze, PyeongChang 2018. Co-founder, Adaptive Action Sports (2005), a 501(c)(3) based at Copper Mountain, Colorado. Author, “On My Own Two Feet: From Losing My Legs to Learning the Dance of Life” (William Morrow, 2014), New York Times bestseller. TED speaker, “Living Beyond Limits” (TEDxOrangeCoast, published on TED.com). Finalist, ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, Season 18 (2014); contestant, CBS’s The Amazing Race (2012). Featured in a Toyota Super Bowl commercial and on Oprah Winfrey’s The Life You Want Tour. Biography At nineteen, a case of bacterial meningitis took Amy Purdy’s legs below the knee, her spleen, and the function of both kidneys. A transplanted kidney from her father kept her alive. Within two years she was back on a snowboard. Within a decade she was on the Paralympic podium. The athletic record is specific. Three Paralympic medals across two Games: bronze at Sochi in 2014 and silver and bronze at PyeongChang in 2018, all in snowboard disciplines she helped argue into existence. In 2005, with Daniel Gale, she co-founded Adaptive Action Sports, the organisation that did much of the quiet work to get Para snowboarding onto the 2014 Paralympic programme. Changing the rules of a sport is a rarer credential than winning inside them. The communication record sits alongside the athletic one. “On My Own Two Feet,” published by William Morrow in 2014 and co-written with Michelle Burford, became a New York Times bestseller and remains her primary reference text. The TEDxOrangeCoast talk “Living Beyond Limits” travelled from conference room to the main TED library. A finalist run on Dancing with the Stars, a Toyota Super Bowl commercial and a place on Oprah Winfrey’s The Life You Want Tour followed, each adding a different audience to her reach. What she offers a corporate room is narrower and more useful than the biography suggests. Her argument is about operating when the original plan has been cancelled: recovering quickly, finding the next move, keeping a team moving while the ground is still shifting. It is a working account of constraint. For leaders building organisations that have to hold together through uncertainty, that is a reference worth hearing directly. Key speaking topics Resilience as a working practice Leading through setback and reinvention Performance under constraint Purpose and reinvention after disruption Category creation and changing the rules of a system High performance in endurance and sport Ideal for Senior leadership offsites and CEO forums focused on resilience, reinvention, and leading through sustained uncertainty. Healthcare, life sciences and patient-facing organisations where the lived-experience dimension carries commercial and cultural weight. Sales kick-offs and all-hands moments that need a serious anchor point rather than generic motivation. Diversity, inclusion and talent events where disability, advocacy, and category creation are part of the conversation. Audience outcomes A sharper working definition of resilience that leaders can apply to their own teams, not just admire in others. A concrete model for operating when the original plan has been removed and a new one has to be built under time pressure. A reference example of building a category (a sport, a product, a business line) where none previously existed. Renewed clarity about the relationship between personal setback and professional performance, useful for high-stakes leadership transitions. Language and framing senior leaders can reuse with their own people after the session ends.

Why organisations work with Amy Thomson A founder who has actually built and sold in consumer markets twice, once in brand communications with Nike, Microsoft and Instagram as clients, and once in femtech with a venture-backed app and a Penguin-published book underneath it. Specific operating knowledge of category creation in stigmatised territory: how to position, fundraise, and market around hormonal health without the wellness-industry shortcuts that erode trust. A published Penguin title grounded in research from gynaecologists, endocrinologists and nutritionists, which means consumer health and pharma teams get a speaker with editorial credibility, not just a founder pitch. A first-person account of hormonal burnout as a CEO that resonates with leadership audiences, then connects to a commercial argument about why workforce health is being misread by employers. Biography highlights Founder and CEO, Moody Month, awarded “Top Female Health App” by Apple Author, Moody: A 21st Century Hormone Guide, Penguin Founder, SEEN brand agency, clients including Nike, Microsoft, RBS, Instagram and Diageo; sold to Captivate Group Co-founder, Future Girl Corp, with Sharmadean Reid, partnered with Google and Diageo Sociology, Goldsmiths, University of London Keynote engagements include Apple HQ and Vogue Biography Most consumer health products built for women have been designed without a serious commercial thesis attached to female physiology. Thomson started Moody Month to close that gap, building a venture-backed app that tracks hormonal and mental health across the menstrual cycle. Apple named it “Top Female Health App” and featured it on the App Store Today Tab. Her route to femtech was operational. She founded SEEN at 23, a brand and content agency working with Nike, Microsoft, RBS, Instagram and Diageo, before selling the company to Captivate Group. A hormonal burnout, driven by years of high-intensity client work, forced her to stop. The decision to study what had happened to her body became the foundation for Moody and for her Penguin book, Moody: A 21st Century Hormone Guide, which draws on gynaecologists, endocrinologists and nutritionists rather than wellness orthodoxy. That dual track, agency exit then femtech category creation, gives her a particular usefulness to consumer health, FMCG and pharma teams trying to build credibly in physiology markets. She has co-founded Future Girl Corp with Sharmadean Reid, partnered Google and Diageo into that programme, and raised institutional capital around a product category most investors still find awkward to underwrite. The commercial argument she makes is concrete: hormonal health is a consumer market that has been mispriced by incumbents and underserved by wellness branding. For leadership audiences, the burnout story carries a sharper edge than the wellness circuit typically allows. It is told by a founder who walked away from a profitable agency, rebuilt around a physiological problem her own body forced her to take seriously, and then commercialised the answer. Key speaking topics Femtech and women’s health as a commercial category Consumer brand building in stigmatised markets Founder-led category creation Hormonal health, data and machine learning Raising venture capital as a female founder Burnout, physiology and executive performance Ideal for CMOs, brand directors and consumer innovation teams in FMCG, pharma and health Investor audiences in femtech, digital health and consumer technology Founder programmes and scale-up leadership networks Boards and leadership teams reviewing workforce health beyond standard wellbeing programming Audience outcomes A working commercial frame for women’s health as a consumer category, not a CSR line A founder’s account of fundraising in stigmatised markets, with the patterns that move investors A first-person view of hormonal burnout at CEO level and what it changed about her operating model A clearer read on why hormonal data is becoming a serious input for consumer product and workforce health

Why organisations work with Anisha Joshi A clinician, not a wellness commentator. Osteopathic practice spanning over a decade, a multi-site clinic group, and a Penguin-published book on back pain give the room a credibility most workplace-wellbeing speakers lack. A clinical reading of burnout. She treats burnout as a physical process that accumulates in the body before it shows up in performance or absence data, which puts it on the risk register for HR and leadership. Named recognition: Principal of the Year from the Institute of Osteopathy (2019), and resident on-screen osteopath for ITV’s This Morning. The musculoskeletal cost of hybrid work, addressed specifically. Ergonomic assessment, posture, movement, and pain prevention applied to real desk and home-working setups. Changes employees can apply the same week, which is what HR and benefits teams need to see returned in engagement and absence data. Biography highlights Author of Heal Your Back: 4 Steps to a Pain-Free Life, Penguin (Vermilion), 2024. Principal of the Year, Institute of Osteopathy, 2019. Resident on-screen osteopath for ITV’s This Morning. Principal Osteopath and Clinic Director at Woodside Osteopathic Clinic, and co-founder of the Osteo Allies clinic group across London, Surrey, and Hertfordshire. Graduate of the British College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM), London. Clinical caseload spanning elite athletes, broadcasters, and senior executives alongside desk-based teams, with media commentary across The Telegraph, Vanity Fair, Women’s Health, and Hello!. Biography Back pain is the leading cause of disability among UK adults under 45, and hybrid work has turned desk-based musculoskeletal injury into an organisational problem rather than a personal one. The HSE counted 511,000 UK workers with a work-related musculoskeletal disorder in 2024/25, and 7.1 million working days lost to them. Most corporate wellbeing programmes still answer that with a gym subsidy and a leaflet. A graduate of the British College of Osteopathic Medicine, Anisha Joshi has practised osteopathy for over a decade and now directs the Osteo Allies clinic group across London, Surrey, and Hertfordshire. Her caseload runs from broadcasters and elite athletes to desk-based teams, which gives her a precise view of what separates the people who sustain high performance from those who break under it. Her book brings that clinical view into usable form. Heal Your Back: 4 Steps to a Pain-Free Life (Penguin, 2024) sets out a structured approach to managing back pain through movement, mindset, nutrition, and sleep, drawn from her own case files. The Institute of Osteopathy named her Principal of the Year in 2019, and she has been the resident on-screen osteopath for ITV’s This Morning. For corporate audiences she does something most wellbeing speakers cannot. She names what is physically wrong with the average hybrid workstation, and she treats burnout as a physical process that accumulates long before it surfaces in absence data. The practical question she leaves a room with is what to change before those numbers move. Key speaking topics Workplace ergonomics and musculoskeletal health Back pain prevention and management The physical accumulation of burnout Hybrid and remote-work wellbeing Physical sustainability in high performance The mind-body connection in pain and stress Posture, movement, and desk-based work Ideal for HR, people, and benefits leaders responsible for hybrid-work wellbeing and absence outcomes Health and safety, facilities, and workplace-design teams reviewing ergonomic standards Professional-services and finance firms with desk-bound, high-pressure workforces Women’s leadership programmes addressing the physical cost of sustained senior performance Audience outcomes A clinical, not anecdotal, picture of how hybrid working drives musculoskeletal injury Specific changes to workstation setup, posture, and movement that an employee can apply the same day The four-step approach to managing and preventing back pain from the Heal Your Back model How burnout builds physically before it shows in behaviour, and where to interrupt it A clearer line between psychological stress and physical symptoms, and what to do about both

Why organisations work with Anita Jones A live-broadcast presenter who hosts boardroom and large-audience corporate events with the pacing and composure of a Champions League studio. Bilingual English and Spanish presenting capability for international events, conferences and panel sessions, including interviews at the level of Lionel Messi and Jude Bellingham. A named, parliamentary-level voice on endometriosis as an Endometriosis UK ambassador, giving women’s health an editorial weight beyond a wellness slot. A British-Nigerian broadcaster credible on representation in sport and media without retreating into generic DEI framing. Biography highlights Presenter, CBS Champions League and CBS Golazo. Reporter, Premier League Productions, reporting weekly from clubs across England. Sky Sports broadcaster; earlier roles with BBC, Channel 4, and Arsenal Nation Live. First-class degree in European Studies, King’s College London; fluent in Spanish and English. Has covered the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the Women’s World Cup, and the Women’s Champions League. Ambassador for Endometriosis UK; has spoken in Parliament on endometriosis, including for Endometriosis Action Month. Biography Live football broadcasting is unforgiving. A presenter has to carry a Champions League studio, hold the line in a noisy stadium tunnel, and translate a Messi or Bellingham answer on the fly. That is the working environment behind Anita Jones’s day job at CBS Champions League, CBS Golazo, Sky Sports and Premier League Productions. The route in was journalistic rather than celebrity. A first-class degree in European Studies from King’s College London, then early reporting and presenting roles at the BBC, Channel 4 and Arsenal Nation Live, before the move into Premier League Productions and CBS. Bilingual English and Spanish broadcasting has been a consistent edge across the work, particularly around major tournaments including the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the Women’s World Cup and the Women’s Champions League. The hosting craft transfers cleanly to corporate stages. Jones works as an event host, moderator and panel chair, with the pace and authority of a live broadcast rather than the cadence of a guest speaker. Briefs that require multilingual delivery, sports tie-ins, or a presenter who can carry a high-profile interview in front of a senior internal audience all sit naturally inside her week. The second strand of her public work is women’s health. Diagnosed with endometriosis in 2018 after a laparoscopy, Jones became an ambassador for Endometriosis UK and has used her broadcast profile to put the condition on the record, including in Parliament during Endometriosis Action Month. For employers looking to treat women’s health as an operating issue rather than a wellness panel, that lived and named platform is what she adds. Key speaking topics Event hosting and live moderation Panel chairing for international and bilingual audiences Sports broadcasting and media Women in sports media Endometriosis and women’s workplace health Representation and diversity in sport Ideal for Corporate conferences and annual events looking for a host or MC with live-broadcast pacing International and bilingual English and Spanish audiences, particularly in sport, sponsorship and brand activation Employee network and ERG events on women’s health, with a focus on endometriosis Sports industry, sponsor and federation events requiring an experienced football moderator Audience outcomes A professionally paced event with clear handovers, sharp interviewing and confident audience handling. A concrete picture of how endometriosis presents in working life and what better workplace support actually looks like. A first-hand view of how representation in sports media has shifted, and what it took to move from a regional reporter role to a Champions League studio. For bilingual audiences, an event delivered with equal fluency in English and Spanish rather than translated through a second voice.

Why organisations work with Anna Mathur Clinical credibility most workplace wellbeing speakers cannot match. BACP accreditation, a Master’s from Regent’s University and NHS and private practice experience sit behind every session. A body of work that has reached a mainstream audience on its own merits, including four Sunday Times bestsellers under Penguin Life and a podcast past three million downloads, so she arrives with recognition employees already have. Practical tools rather than awareness raising. Sessions land on techniques people can use the same week for anxiety, people pleasing, guilt and worth at work. A register that works for stigma-sensitive topics. She has presented to teams at Google, Spotify, Bain & Company, Soho House and UCL on subjects most speakers reduce to platitudes. Biography highlights BACP-accredited psychotherapist; MA Psychotherapy and Counselling, Regent’s University London; BSc Social Psychology, Loughborough University. Author of four Sunday Times bestsellers published by Penguin Life: Mind Over Mother, Know Your Worth, The Little Book of New Mum Feelings and The Uncomfortable Truth (March 2025). Host of The Therapy Edit podcast, more than 3 million downloads, charting on Apple and Spotify. Corporate keynote and seminar work for Google, Spotify, Bain & Company, Soho House and UCL. Broadcast contributor on Sky News, Good Morning Britain, BBC Three and Steph’s Packed Lunch; columns and features in Grazia, Stylist, Red, Marie Claire, Psychologies, The Telegraph and Daily Mail. Instagram community of around 225,000 followers built on practical psychotherapeutic content rather than influencer wellness. Biography Most workplace mental health content stops at awareness. Employees know the language of burnout, anxiety and boundaries; what they do not have is a clinician’s read on what to actually do with those feelings on a Tuesday morning. Anna Mathur’s work sits in that gap. She is a BACP-accredited psychotherapist trained at Regent’s University London, with NHS and private practice experience behind a body of writing and broadcasting that has reached an audience well beyond the consulting room. Penguin Life has published four of her books to Sunday Times bestseller status, most recently The Uncomfortable Truth in March 2025, which addresses ten of the fears that drive overwhelm, perfectionism and people pleasing. The Therapy Edit, her podcast of ten-minute episodes, has passed three million downloads and is a regular Apple and Spotify chart fixture. These are not sidelines to a therapy practice. They are the practice operating at scale. For corporate audiences, the practical content stays close to the clinical work. Anxiety, stress, guilt around work and parenting, self-worth and the people-pleasing patterns that show up in managerial behaviour are the recurring subjects. Sessions for Google, Spotify, Bain & Company, Soho House and UCL have run from intimate sofa-style workshops with leadership teams to webinars for retail managers in the hundreds. What organisations are paying for is the combination of clinical seriousness and accessible delivery. The accreditation is genuine, the book record is verifiable, and the techniques people leave with are the same ones she uses with private clients. That is what makes the content land in workplaces where wellbeing fatigue is already setting in. Key speaking topics Anxiety and overwhelm at work Workplace mental health and wellbeing People pleasing and burnout Self-worth and imposter feelings Stress and resilience The working parent: guilt, worry and capacity Boundaries and emotional regulation Ideal for People, culture, DEI and wellbeing leads commissioning credible mental health content Senior leadership offsites where the brief is composure, sustainability and self-leadership Employee resource groups, particularly working parents and women’s networks Professional services and tech firms with high-performance cultures and rising anxiety reporting Audience outcomes A working vocabulary for anxiety, overwhelm and self-worth that employees can use without clinical training. Specific techniques for managing intrusive worry, perfectionist patterns and the people-pleasing reflex at work. Permission, from a clinician, to interrupt the productivity-at-all-costs logic that is driving burnout. A reset on what self-care actually means in a working week, distinct from the wellness industry version. Confidence among managers to hold mental health conversations with team members without overstepping.

Why organisations work with Annabel Croft A working broadcaster across BBC Wimbledon, Sky Sports, Eurosport, Amazon Prime and ITV, which means she runs an awards stage or a panel with the timing and composure of someone who does it on live television every season. Her resilience material is grounded in a specific event: walking away from professional tennis at 21 after burnout, then rebuilding a thirty-year media career. That gives the keynote a verifiable spine that few sports speakers can match. Senior buyers get an event host who is also a credible keynote option on peak performance and reinvention, which collapses two suppliers into one for sports nights, gala dinners and conference plenaries. Profile recognition with UK corporate audiences is high after BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2023, which lifts ticket pull for client-facing events without requiring a celebrity-only booking. Biography highlights Former British No. 1 women’s tennis player; youngest Briton to play at Wimbledon for nearly 100 years. Junior Wimbledon and Australian Open champion (1984); WTA Virginia Slims of San Diego title (1985). Represented Great Britain in the Fed Cup and Wightman Cup. Tennis presenter and pundit for BBC, Sky Sports, Eurosport, Amazon Prime and Discovery; on-court interviewer at the 2024 Wimbledon Finals. Presented Channel 4’s Treasure Hunt and ITV’s The Interceptor. Fourth-place finalist, BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2023. Biography A working life in elite sport often ends earlier than the athlete planned. Croft retired from the professional tour at 21, after a decade as one of Britain’s most-watched young players, including becoming the youngest Briton to play at Wimbledon for nearly a century. The interesting part of her biography starts after that. She built a broadcasting career that has now run for more than three decades. She has presented and commentated on tennis for the BBC at Wimbledon, Sky Sports, Eurosport, Amazon Prime and Discovery, and conducted on-court interviews at the 2024 Wimbledon Ladies’ and Men’s Finals. Her early television work spanned mainstream entertainment, including fourteen episodes of Channel 4’s Treasure Hunt and ITV’s action series The Interceptor. For corporate audiences her value is twofold. As a host and moderator, she carries the calibration of someone who chairs live broadcast moments under pressure every season. As a speaker, she draws on the specific content of leaving a defining career at 21 and constructing a second one in public: what reinvention costs, how peak performance habits transfer, and how to manage the end of a role you did not choose to leave. Her recent fourth-place finish on BBC Strictly Come Dancing in 2023 broadened her reach to general UK corporate audiences and added a current point of recognition for client-facing dinners and awards.

Why organisations work with Annabell Fuller A live competitor’s account of decision-making under public pressure, drawn from major championship cuts at Carnoustie and a top-three finish at a USD 5 million LET event, not retrospective reflection from a retired career. Specific, sport-grounded language for what self-leadership looks like in the seconds before a high-stakes call, useful for leaders briefing teams on composure rather than wellbeing. A credible voice on the gap between physical preparation and competitive output, drawn from CrossFit-led conditioning work integrated into a professional golf schedule. A generational perspective on performing in public view at twenty-three, relevant to organisations thinking about early-career talent expected to operate under scrutiny. Biography highlights Ladies European Tour professional since 2024; tied 5th at LET Q-School to earn her card. 3rd place at the PIF Saudi Ladies International 2025, a USD 5 million LET event. Made the cut at the 2021 AIG Women’s Open at Carnoustie as one of only three amateurs that year. Three-time Curtis Cup player for Great Britain and Ireland (2018, 2021, 2022). Two-time European Ladies’ Team Championship gold medallist for England (2021, 2022). 2020 English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Champion; University of Florida NCAA golfer 2020 to 2023. Biography A senior team will commit hundreds of hours of training to a decision that takes two seconds to execute in public. The question of what holds a performer together in that window is rarely treated as a discipline. Annabell Fuller has spent her career inside it. Fuller earned her Ladies European Tour card at Q-School in December 2023 with a tied-5th finish, then spent her rookie 2024 season learning to convert preparation into tour-level scoring. Her strongest result so far, third place at the PIF Saudi Ladies International in 2025, came at a USD 5 million LET event where the field included most of the tour’s established names. The amateur record behind her is the credential most useful to a board audience. She made the cut at the 2021 Women’s British Open at Carnoustie as one of only three amateurs, won the English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship in 2020, and represented Great Britain and Ireland three times in the Curtis Cup. At the University of Florida she won the Florida Gator Invitational and reached the world’s top 25 in the amateur rankings. What sits underneath those results, and what she speaks about, is the conditioning behind composure: how a competitor builds a decision process that survives the moment a tournament tightens. The talks lean on CrossFit-integrated physical preparation, public accountability at twenty-three, and the specific discipline of recovering from a poor shot quickly enough to compete on the next one. Key speaking topics Composure and decision-making under public pressure Self-leadership in elite competition Physical preparation and performance conditioning Resilience after setback Team performance in individual sport Early-career performance under scrutiny Ideal for Sales leadership conferences focused on quota delivery under pressure Early-career and high-potential talent programmes inside large organisations Executive offsites built around composure and decision-making rather than strategy Employee networks and ERG events on women in performance environments Audience outcomes A working language for what composure under pressure actually involves, drawn from competition rather than coaching theory. A clearer picture of how physical conditioning links to mental performance in a demanding role. Specific examples of recovering from public setbacks fast enough to perform on the next attempt. A credible account of operating under public scrutiny at the start of a career.
