As a motivational speaker, I’m passionate about inspiring people to believe in themselves, push past setbacks, and achieve their dreams — no matter the challenges they face.
My own story is central to what I share. Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at just two years old, I’ve spent a lot of time navigating difficult situations, including hospital stays and health challenges. I share how strength and vulnerability can go hand in hand to overcome adversity and that these obstacles don’t have to define you or hold you back.
What some people see as weakness in today’s world, you can turn into your biggest strength. My experiences have taught me that no challenge, however big, should stop you from reaching your goals.
What I offer through my talks:
Powerful keynote speeches that motivate audiences to overcome adversity and achieve what they desire in life.
Personal stories of resilience and persistence, showing how challenges can become a source of strength.
Practical advice on coaching yourself out of ruts and pushing forward despite setbacks.
Guidance and tips for speakers of all levels to manage nerves and confidently deliver messages — whether to 6 people or 600.
A down-to-earth genuine, relatable approach that connects with audiences of all ages, especially young people.
If you’re looking for a motivational speaker who brings authenticity, energy, and real-life lessons to your event or corporate away day, I’d love to hear from you.
Let’s work together to inspire your audience or employees to believe in themselves and take action.
Get in touch today to discuss how I can bring a message of hope, resilience, and motivation to your next event.

Lucy's candid sharing of her experience at School resonated deeply with the audience and her advice to the students - encouraging them to set goals, seize opportunities and embrace their regional accents - provided practical and motivational guidance for the future. We are so grateful for Lucy's time spent in our classes and as our keynote speaker.”

“We were very honoured to have Lucy visit us this year. Lucy inspired the children in Year 5 by sharing her experiences in journalism whilst working for the BBC. The children were engrossed in Lucy's recounts of interviews, the video clips of her presenting on television and they revelled in being given the opportunity to ask questions about her exciting career. Highly recommended public speaker, it was a pleasure.”
