Safe & Supportive - I create space for vulnerability and honest conversation
Inspiring & Energizing - People leave feeling empowered and ready to act
Flexible & Collaborative - I tailor content to your culture and needs

What my clients say…

Santander UK - A 6+ Year Partnership

Lynne Robertson Enterprise Education & Insight Lead, Santander Breakthrough

"Lesley has just delivered another great session for us, supporting our Women Business Leaders' Mentoring Programme for the fourth year. As always she captures the ethos behind what we do and why we do it, and it's great to see the immediate impact her sessions have on our delegates. If you're looking for someone to deliver more than simply a nuts and bolts session I'd suggest you speak to Lesley, she brings topics like marketing to life with the science as well as the practical application. Love working with you Lesley!"

KEY RESULT: Now a 6+ year trusted partnership with consistent delegate impact

UK Foreign Office - Large-Scale Impact

Annika Burke Economist, UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office

"Lesley ran a one hour workshop for the women's network at the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) on 'Why Femininity is Your Superpower'. Over 250 women came to the event and really enjoyed the content! Lesley encouraged participants to think about how they can draw on feminine energy to build their confidence and move out of their comfort zone. The women were really engaged in the chat and afterwards asked if we can have more inspiring workshops like this one!"

KEY RESULT: 250+ women engaged and empowered in single session

Reward Gateway - The Empowered Woman Series

Jemella Hanson Global DE&I and Learning & Development Manager

"I was introduced to Lesley, first through her detailed proposal for the business, and was automatically struck by how relatable she was, and her own empowerment journey; I find it is always easier to visualise the impact something will have if you can see yourself in the facilitator. The planning and scoping of The Empowered Woman Leadership Series sessions were an indication of what was to come, as I left every one of them feeling inspired, revitalised and ready to take on the world. The sessions themselves were powerful (even virtually), the meditation exercise provided an introspective reflection of my journey and how to be kinder to myself."

KEY RESULT: Bespoke series delivered globally with lasting transformation

Girls In Tech Conference - Inspiration & Interactivity

Adriana Gascoigne, Founder Girls In Tech

"Lesley shined on the Girls in Tech stage, delivering an impactful speech on the art of storytelling for startup success, charged with a high dose of inspiration. Lesley not only shared a number of helpful tips on how to create and tell stories to supercharge our businesses and personal brands, but also motivated attendees to embrace their uniqueness, overcome their fears, and share their stories with the world."

KEY RESULT: 150+ women engaged and empowered in single session

Frequently Asked Questions

Book A Consultation

What size groups do you work with?
I've delivered to groups ranging from 8-12 (intimate workshops) to 250+ (large keynotes). The optimal size depends on the format and outcomes you're seeking.

Can sessions be delivered virtually?
Absolutely. I've successfully delivered programs both in-person and virtually with equal impact. Many organizations now prefer hybrid options.

How do you customize content for our organisation?
I spend time understanding your culture, challenges, and goals before creating content. I can incorporate your organisation's values, language, and specific scenarios to make it highly relevant.

What's the typical participant feedback?
Common themes: "inspiring," "practical," "relatable," "empowering," "I left ready to take action." Organisations report immediate visible shifts in confidence and engagement.

Do you provide materials?
Yes, with workshops participants receive workbooks, frameworks, and resources they can reference after the session. For multi-session programs, materials are more comprehensive.

Can we record the session?
Yes, for internal use only. This is great for those who couldn't attend or for reinforcement afterwards.

How far in advance should we book?
For one-time sessions, ideally 4-8 weeks. For comprehensive programs or specific dates, 2-3 months notice ensures best availability.

Do you offer train-the-trainer?
For organizations wanting to implement content internally long-term, I can provide train-the-trainer support. Let's discuss your specific needs.
